Abstract
Ultra Wideband (UWB) is an promising underlying method for coexistence among different systems. However, the performance may not be as good as expected due to the changing spectrum environment. Thus, cognitive UWB radio is proposed by taking the advantage of cognition, which enables the radio to learn the spectrum environment by itself. In this paper, we explore a cognitive UWB testbed in physical layer, including cognitive pulse generator, stream view and performance evaluation. In order to protect the potential narrowband systems, the specific mask and channel information are utilized to adapt the system parameters with the help of pulse mask code and pulse generation block. Simulation results show that the proposed testbed is capable to generate the adaptive pulse that suitable for different spectrum environment.
