Summary:
This paper presents the experimental model of UWB antenna performance with laptop computers in an indoor channel are analyzed for the 3.1 GHz to 10.6 GHz frequency band. The rectangular passband waveform, which satisfied the Federal Communication Commission (FCC) [4] definition of UWB signal and FCC spectral masks for the indoor limits, are considered. The characteristics of the indoor propagation channel are very complicated and difficult to predict. Therefore, the performances of UWB antenna signal shall be considered. In addition, we considered the matched filter at the receiver side to maximize the signal to noise ratio (SNR). The UWB antenna transfer function, the UWB signal waveform of the UWB systems is evaluated. The transmission gain and the correlation coefficient are presented and discussed.
