Abstract
The ultra wide band communication system of the present invention includes a transmitter (station) and a receiver (station). The transmitter and the receiver employ spreading code comprised of code groups, which respectively comprise varied, auto-correlated codes. Consecutive information bits are spread and de-spread with differing code and the code groups are correlated with each other (e.g., orthogonal) so as to reduce channel impulse response estimation noise. At the receiver, subsequent channel estimates can be added or averaged with an initial channel estimate so as to reduce the channel impulse response estimation noise and thereby provide a relatively more accurate channel response.
