ABSTRACT:
Clear channel assessment (CCA) is a very important issue in Ultra-Wideband (UWB) systems. An effective CCA mechanism will have a large impact on the overall throughput of the communications system. It is disclosed methods and circuits to carry out CCA determinations exploiting the structure of the pulse signal either by using a moving average or by performing a cross-correlation with a locally generated signal.
