Abstract

“Impulse radio” is currently being considered as a low cost, power efficient, medium range (400m) low data rate (400MBis) wireless solution. This paper reviews the design of pulses for impulse radio. Rectangular, Rayleigh, Laplacian, cubic monocycles and Gaussian pulses are first reviewed. Modified Hermite Polynomials, wavelets and prolate spheroidal wavefunctions are then introduced as candidate waveforms for pulse shaped modulation. Finally, challenges relating to the implementation of pulse shape modulation in a wireless environment are discussed.
