The CTL is a modified data transition tracking loop （DTTL）. The difference between them is that the Q channel output of the CTL is directly multiplied by a clock component, while that of the DTTL is multiplied by the Ⅰ channel transition detector output. Under the condition of a quasi-squareware PN ranging code, the tracking （ mean square timing jitter） performance of the CTL is analyzed. The tracking performances of the CTL and the DTTL, are compared over a wide range of symbol SNRs. The result shows that the CTL and the DTTL have the same performance at a large symbol SNR, while at a low symbol SNR, the former offers a noticeable enhancement.展开更多

But in an actual PN ranging system, digital signal processing limits the ranging accuracy, only level up with meter-scale. Using non-integer chip to sample time ratio, noncommensurate sampling was seen as an effective solution to cope with the drawback of digital effects. However, researchers only paid attention to selecting specific ratios or giving a simulation model to verify the effectiveness of the noncommensurate ratios. A qualitative analysis model is proposed to characterize the relationship between the range accuracy and the noncommensurate sampling parameters. Moreover, a method is also presented which can be used to choose the noncommensurate ratio and the correlation length to get higher phase delay distinguishability and lower range jitter. The simulation results indicate the correctness of our analyses and the optimal ranging accuracy can be up to centimeter-level with the proposed approach.展开更多

The UWB signal is a stream of very low power density and ultra-short pulses, and the great potential of DS-UWB depends critically on the success of timing acquisition. A rapid acquisition algorithm for reducing the acquisition time of the coarse pseudo-noise （PN） sequences is proposed. The algorithm utilizes the auxiliary sequence and bisearch strategy based on the threshold comparison criterion. Both theoretical analysis and simulation tests show that with the proposed search strategy and simple operations over the symbol duration at the receiver, the proposed algorithm can considerably reduce the acquisition time even as it maintains the PN sequence acquisition probability in the DS-UWB system over the dense multipath environment.展开更多
