Abstract
We propose and experimentally demonstrate an Impulse-Radio Ultra-wideband Radioover-Fiber (IR-UWB-RoF) indoor ranging systems with sub-cm level accuracy. To minimize the cost of the system, reduce power consumption of receiver architecture and simultaneously achieve a better FCC-mask compliance, we employ a novel pulse shaping technique of IR-UWB pulse and an energy detector receiver architecture with a sub-sampling frequency capability. The effect of different fiber types (SMF and MMF) and fiber lengths on the ranging accuracy are studied using ToA ranging techniques.
The proposed system has a potential for low cost in-building networks application to provide indoor localization with excellent accuracy.
