The invention relates to a learning process for an ultra wideband communication system with M transmission antennas and N reception antennas and in which the information is modulated on L possible positions comprising the following steps: a) transmit a series of Nseq learning pulses from each emission antenna to all reception antennas. b) for each reception antenna j, estimate the M composite responses of series of emitted pulses that arrive at this reception antenna j, each composite response being estimated by eliminating the effects of other antennas. c) estimate correlations between the different channels.

The present invention relates to a differential space-time coding of blocks of 2, 4 or 8 information symbols belonging to a 2-PPM modulation alphabet, for a pulse UWB MIMO system with 2, 4 or 8 transmitter antennas. The proposed differential space-time code does not introduce an inversion of the polarity of the pulses, whilst offering maximum diversity and a unit rate.The invention also relates to a pulse UWB transmitter system with 2, 4, or 8 antennas which uses this differential space-time coding, as well as an associated receiver system which does not require channel estimation.

This invention relates to a space-time coding process for a pulse type MIMO-UWB system using symbols belonging to a PPM modulation alphabet. Orthogonality of signals emitted by the different antennas is achieved by providing a mechanism for permutation of PPM symbol modulation positions and by imposing a constraint on the positions of said symbols. The space-time coding process according to the invention enables an incoherent type reception.
摘要:
This invention relates to a space-time coding method for a UWB transmission system comprising two radiation elements. This method codes a block of information symbols (S=(a1,a2,a3,a4)) belonging to a PPM modulation constellation or a PPM-PAM composite modulation constellation with a number of time positions greater than or equal to 3, into a sequence of vectors (c10,c20,c11,c21), the components of a vector being intended to modulate a UWB pulse signal for a radiation element of said system and for a given transmission interval (Tf). A first and a second of said vectors are obtained by means of a first linear combination of a first and a second pair of said symbols, and a third and a fourth of said vectors are obtained by means of a second linear combination of said first and second pairs of said symbols, the first and the second linear combinations using scalar coefficients ({tilde over (α)}, {tilde over (β)}, −{tilde over (β)}, {tilde over (α)}) of which the corresponding ratios are approximately equal to the Golden number and to its opposite, the components of one of said vectors also being permuted according to a cyclic permutation prior to modulating said pulse UWB signal.
