Abstract

The performance of peak detection of ultra-wide band receiver is greatly affected by the threshold of the comparator. Considering that the bit error rate is a convex function of the threshold, we propose a dynamic threshold control based on training sequence. The simulation results show that the proposed practical algorithm can track and approach the optimal comparator threshold to achieve better reception performance.
