Abstract
Due to the low complexity and cost characteristics of ultra-wideband (UWB) systems, a weighted acquisition algorithm based on energy detection is proposed in this paper. This method is divided into two steps to acquire the direct path (DP) component. Firstly, weighted energy detection is applied to determine which energy block the DP lies in by generalized likelihood ratio test (GLRT). A sub-optimal weighted vector is obtained, by which the closed form of detection performance is proposed. In the second step, the precise position of DP within the detected energy block is obtained by the statistical characteristics of the channel energy distributions. Key parameters that affect acquisition performance are studied by analytical and numerical methods. Simulations and experiments are carried out for performance and complexity comparison with traditional ones. The results show that weighted acquisition achieves better performance under relative low complexity conditions.
