On the performance of episodic UWB and direct-sequence communication systems.

We consider a binary pulsed communication system, with possibly episodic transmission, i.e., the system transmits n pulses per information bit and allows for off-time separation between pulses. In the ultra-wideband (UWB) regime, such systems are motivated for overlay applications, as well as low pr...
