An Investigation on UWB-MIMO Communication Systems Based on an Experimental Channel Characterization

The advantages of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technology in ultrawideband (UWB) communication systems are investigated evaluating the channel capacity from measurements taken in indoor environments. The results suggest that in practical …

A PSO-Driven Spline-Based Shaping Approach for Ultrawideband (UWB) Antenna Synthesis

Synthesis of ultrawideband (UWB) antennas by means of a particle swarm optimizer (PSO)-driven spline-based shaping approach is described. In order to devise a reliable and effective solution, such a topic is analyzed according to different …

A time-based approach for the synthesis of antennas for UWB communication systems

In this paper, an innovative approach for the synthesis of antennas fitting the requirements of an UWB communication system has been presented. Such an approach allows one to design UWB antennas with distortionless propagation properties as well as …

Optimization of a Spline-Shaped UWB Antenna by PSO

This letter presents the design of a planar antenna for ultrawideband (UWB) applications with a bandwidth of 5.5 GHz over 3.7 to 9.2 GHz and return loss values lower than -10 dB. The antenna geometry is described in terms of a spline-based …
