  • Clockless, Continuous-Time Analog Correlator Using Time-EnCoded Signal Processing Demonstrating Asynchronous CDMA for Wake-Up Receivers
    IEEE Journal of Solid-State Circuits, 1
    Co-Authors: Vivek Mangal, Peter R. Kinget
    Abstract:

    A clockless, continuous-time (CT) analog correlator circuit realization is presented based on time-enCoded analog signal processing. Voltage-controlled oscillators (VCOs) transform the analog voltage signals into time-enCoded analog signals and, in the process, perform signal integration; CT, digital-style delay cells combined with phase-frequency detectors followed by capacitive summers implement a CT matched filter. The correlator prototype designed in 65-nm CMOS-LP technology consumes 37 nW from 0.54 V and is used in the baseband of a wake-up receiver to despread asynchronous Code-division multiple access (CDMA) Codes and demonstrate Code-domain filtering for an 11-bit Barker Code. The wake-up receiver's sensitivity is enhanced by 2 dB to -80.9 dBm for a missed detection ratio of 10⁻³, and its selectivity is improved by 5 dB, thanks to the use of the correlator. Simultaneous wake-up using CDMA is demonstrated with selective responses of the receiver to different desired Codes in the presence of an undesired Code.

  • Precise time of flight measurements in IEEE 802.11 networks by cross-correlating the sampled signal with a continuous Barker Code
    2010 IEEE 7th International Conference on Mobile Adhoc and Sensor Systems MASS 2010, 2010
    Co-Authors: Stefan König, Mark Schmidt, Christian Hoene
    Abstract:

    Wireless LAN devices can be used for two-way time of arrival (TOA) measurements even with off-the-shelf hardware that has only a measurement resolution of 1 μs. However, to get a good locating and tracking performance the send and arrival times as well as the durations of IEEE 802.11 MAC packets must be measured precisely. In this paper, we calculate a cross-correlation between the received and sampled signal and a time continuous Barker Code sequence to determine the TOA. Our adaptive sampling offset algorithm helps to efficiently obtain a subsample resolution. We implemented our algorithm and an IEEE 802.11 receiver as a Software-Defined-Radio (SDR) program. In our experiments, the algorithm needs fewer observations in comparison to previously published approaches that measure the time of flight between two WLAN devices.
