Comparison between Coherent and Noncoherent Receivers for UWB Communications

<p/> <p>We present a comparison between coherent and noncoherent UWB receivers, under a realistic propagation environment, that takes into account also the effect of path-dependent pulse distortion. As far as coherent receivers are concerned, both maximal ratio combining (MRC) and equal...
