Abstract: A method for processing an incident pulsed signal of an ultra wide band type received over a channel by a data device operating in a wireless data communications system is provided. The incident pulsed signal carries information within a super-frame structure. Upon reception of each super-frame structure by a data device, coarse synchronization is performed with another data device acting as a coordinator device for the wireless data communications system. The coarse synchronization uses a first training sequence. Upon reception of each frame allocated to the data device operating within the super-frame structure, channel estimation is performed using a second training sequence. The channel estimation also performs a frame synchronization.

Abstract: An incident signal contains a preamble including a training sequence having a series of pulses whose polarity and time shifts are defined by respective polarity code and time-hopping code. A method includes a digital cross-correlation of the received signal with the training sequence. The cross-correlation algebraically sums in accordance with the polarity code windows of the received signal. The starting points of the windows are determined by the time-hopping code. The cross-correlation further includes detecting the end point of the preamble from the result of the digital cross-correlation. When the size of the receiving buffer, i.e., the size of the window is smaller than the number N of samples of each replica of the training sequence, it is particularly advantageous that the digital cross-correlation be performed iteratively in a block-by-block fashion. The computation of each block is split into M slices which are computed by algebraically summing windows N/M samples long.

Abstract: An incident pulse signal of the ultra wideband type conveys digital information that is coded using pulses having a known theoretical shape. A decoding device includes an input for receiving the incident signal, and for delivering a base signal. A comparator receives the base signal and delivers an intermediate signal representative of the sign of the base signal with respect to a reference. A sampling circuit samples the intermediate signal for delivering a digital signal. A digital processing circuit correlates the digital signal with a reference correlation signal corresponding to a theoretical base signal arising from the reception of a theoretical pulse having the known theoretical shape.
