The hearing system generates audible sound in the ears without any receivers, and no one can hear the generated sound except the user. The theory for generating audible sound is based on a self-demodulation effect which arises from the nonlinearity of the transmission medium. The nonlinear acoustics of the human body allow ultrasonic waves to interact in the transmission medium. When two ultrasonic waves with different frequencies are transmitted through the human body, an audio signal at the difference frequency of two waves is produced in the ears due to the self-demodulation effect.","PeriodicalId":6297,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE 16th International Symposium on Consumer Electronics","volume":"3 1","pages":"1-3"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83790906","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, the cooperative scheme of the noncoherent UWB impulse radio system with block-coded modulation (BCM) having a codeword matching and signal aggregation (CMSA) detection is discussed under different fading environments, which has not been studied yet. To enlarge the operation range of the USB system, the amplify-and-forward scheme is used as a relay protocol to re-transmit signals from source to destination. Simulation results illustrate that the proposed method performs better than that without a cooperative scheme over the Nakagami-μ fading channel.","PeriodicalId":6297,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE 16th International Symposium on Consumer Electronics","volume":"7 1","pages":"1-4"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83086699","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Conventionally, the transfer function (TF) of the channel to be de-embedded could be obtained independently without capturing its interaction to the DUT. However, as data rates increase and channels become more complex, the errors due to discontinuities at the channel to DUT boundary need to be given due consideration. This paper provides simulation and measurement examples to illustrate this effect and proposes a modified approach of generating the channel TF to compensate for those errors. The proposed approach effectively improves the accuracy of the de-embedded result. It can also be used as a validation scheme to correlate the de-embedding accuracy for a given application.","PeriodicalId":6297,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE 16th International Symposium on Consumer Electronics","volume":"116 1","pages":"1-4"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79172357","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
