P440 Data Sheet / User Guide DRAFT 5 1 Summary The PulsON 440 (P440) module is an Ultra Wideband (UWB) radio transceiver operating between 3.1 and 4.8 GHz and provides the following functions: It uses Two-Way Time-of-Flight (TW-TOF) ranging to measure the distance between two or more P440s. These measurements have an accuracy of 2 cm and are provided at rates up to 125 Hz. It communicates data between two or more P440s. It can operate as a monostatic, bistatic, or multistatic radar.
DRAFT 6 P440 Data Sheet / User Guide They allow users to evaluate the radar performance through use of a sample Motion Filter, sample Detection Processor, and a graphical display of raw and processed radar scans. They allow system analysts to visualize, collect, and log raw ranging and radar data such that it is possible to develop algorithms/strategies optimized for the chosen product application. They allow users to operate multiple P440s to form a network of ranging radios.
P440 Data Sheet / User Guide DRAFT 7 2 P440 Software The P440 software consists of five elements: Embedded software operating on the P440 module The Application Programming Interface (API) which defines the interface between the P440 and a Host processor GUIs provided to (1) illustrate operation of the P440 and (2) provide an analytical tool for characterizing performance Sample C and MATLAB code to assist the user in developing custom applications Network support to enable systems of

If the embedded code in the P440 is updated, then all three APIs will be updated as well.

DRAFT 10 P440 Data Sheet / User Guide Fig.1: A typical received waveform: signal magnitude (relative strength) vs time (increments of 61ps) This is a powerful capability for several reasons: Oversampling enables correlation processing, thereby producing reliable sub-centimeter range estimates.
P440 Data Sheet / User Guide DRAFT 11 This underlying capability allows the generation of the following three different types of range measurements: Precision Range Measurements (PRM) are taken using the TW-TOF ranging technique. These readings typically have high accuracy and are provided with estimates of range error as well as flags that warn of possible errors. The user can use these range error estimates to drive a Kalman Filter. The flags can be used to disregard inaccurate readings.

Fig. 3: Typical waveform as displayed by the GUI The ability to log data also allows the user to plot performance as a function of range. This is an excellent tool for evaluating signal propagation in a given area. For example, the information shown in Figure 4 was collected as the distance between two units was increased.

(Note the Fresnel cancellation and enhancement.) 2.4.2 Networking with RangeNet Operating a system that consists of only two units is very simple. Operating with more than two units starts to introduce significant complexity. For example: The number of radios in the system may vary with time. Units that enter the system need to be discovered.
DRAFT 14 P440 Data Sheet / User Guide efficiency of this ALOHA network is approximately 38%, making it equivalent to the performance of a Slotted ALOHA system. If the TDMA protocol is used, then the user can define a slot map that provides each radio with an indication of when and to whom and with what parameters it should communicate. An example slot map is shown below in Figure 5.
P440 Data Sheet / User Guide DRAFT 15 The network also takes advantage of two features available with simple ranging applications, Echo Last Range (ELR) and Coarse Range Estimate (CRE), but which find special utility when used in a network. ELR takes advantage of the fact that all units can receive any transmission. Whenever a unit requests a range from a particular unit, it also transmits the last successful range measurement and node number of the corresponding unit.

DRAFT P440 Data Sheet / User Guide Fig. 11: Waveform scan captured at 61 ps resolution Fig. 12: Waveform scan captured at 4 ps resolution Because transmissions will be received by any radio in the area, the system can have one transmitter and many receivers. Depending on your point of view, this is either a spatially distributed multistatic radar array or an excellent way to quickly collect data for an RF propagation model.

More specifically, the first 10 nodes that join the system will operate normally. They can join and leave the network normally, but the 11th unit and all subsequent units will not be recognized by the system.

In fact, energy received on the transmit antenna will also leak through the transfer switch directly into the receiver. Normally this is not an issue, but the user is advised that the isolation of the transfer switch is approximately 20 dB. When connecting the port to an SMA cable or antenna, be careful not to overtighten the connection. This can cause damage to the board.
