Publication number: 20200163014Abstract: Within many applications impulse radio based ultra-wideband (IR-UWB) transmission offers significant benefits for very short range high data rate communications when compared with existing standards and protocols. In many of these applications the main design goals are very low power consumption and very low complexity design for easy integration and cost reduction. Digitally programmable IR-UWB transmitters using an on-off keying modulation scheme on a 0.13 microns CMOS process operating on 1.2V supply and yielding power consumption as low as 0.9 mW at a 10 Mbps data rate with dynamic power control are enabled. The IR-UWB transmitters support new frequency hopping techniques providing more efficient spectrum usage and dynamic allocation of the spectrum when transmitting in highly congested frequency bands. Biphasic scrambling is also introduced for spectral line reduction.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 16, 2019Publication date: May 21, 2020Inventors: FREDERIC NABKI, DOMINIC DESLANDES, ALEXANDRE DESMARAIS, ANH-KIET VUONG, ANIS BOUNIF, WANG HAO, WILLIAM PHAM

Publication number: 20200119766Abstract: Ultra-Wideband (UWB) technology exploits modulated coded impulses over a wide frequency spectrum with very low power over a short distance for digital data transmission. Such UWB systems through their receivers may operate in the presence of interfering signals and should provide for robust communications. Accordingly, an accurate and sharp filter that operates at low power is required and beneficially one that does not require a highly accurate power heavy clock. Further, many UWB applications require location and/or range finding of other elements and it would therefore be beneficial to provide a UWB based range finding and/or location capability removing the requirement to add additional device complexity and, typically significant, power consumption.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 16, 2019Publication date: April 16, 2020Inventors: FREDERIC NABKI, DOMINIC DESLANDES, MOHAMMAD TAHERZADEH-SANI, MICHIEL SOER, RABIA RASSIL

Patent number: 10608699Abstract: Ultra-Wideband (UWB) technology exploits modulated coded impulses over a wide frequency spectrum with very low power over a short distance for digital data transmission. Today's leading edge modulated sinusoidal wave wireless communication standards and systems achieve power efficiencies of 50 nJ/bit employing narrowband signaling schemes and traditional RF transceiver architectures. However, such designs severely limit the achievable energy efficiency, especially at lower data rates such as below 1 Mbps. Further, it is important that peak power consumption is supportable by common battery or energy harvesting technologies and long term power consumption neither leads to limited battery lifetimes or an inability for alternate energy sources to sustain them. Accordingly, it would be beneficial for next generation applications to exploit inventive transceiver structures and communication schemes in order to achieve the sub nJ per bit energy efficiencies required by next generation applications.Type: GrantFiled: May 31, 2016Date of Patent: March 31, 2020Assignee: Transfert Plus Societe en CommanditeInventors: Frederic Nabki, Dominic Deslandes, Mohammad Taherzadeh-Sani, Michiel Soer
