Abstract

In this paper, we derive a closed-form expression for channel-averaged signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) for ultra-wideband (UWB) Rake receiving system in an indoor multiuser communication scenario, given that the interference level is fluctuating due to asynchronous transmissions among users. The indoor wireless channel model adopted here is a standard one, recently released by IEEE 802.15 study group 3a [1]. We propose a theoretical framework to derive the channel-averaged SINR considering the lognormal channel gain distribution and the double independent Poisson arrival distribution of cluster and ray, and show that our analysis is well coincident with the simulation results. With this framework, we demonstrate that our analysis can be applied to theoretically determine the optimum integration interval for a UWB transmitted reference system, even in a multiuser scenario.
