This thesis describes and models wirelesss transmission intereferences in real communication channels. A signal received on a fading channel is subjected to a multiplicative distortion and to the usual additive noise. Real channel adds to the signal noise and fadings. Gaussian noise is a result of channel awgn. Fadings is implicated by multipath propagation of signal in Rayleigh and Rician channels. Main goal of this project is to program BERsolve, which is created in tool GUIDE in Matlab. User program BERsolve makes it possible to analyse bit error rate and symbol error rate for some types of channel models, which are defined by standard COST207. BERsolve offers some other functions i.e. display time behaviour, constellation diagram and spectrum. This program provides us with an overview representation of problem by multipath interferences in communication channels.

Most modern clock and data recovery circuits (CDR) are based on analog blocks that need to be redesigned whenever the technology process is to be changed. On the other hand, CDR based blind oversampling architecture (BO-CDR) can be completely designed in a digital process which makes its migration very simple. The main disadvantages of the BO-CDR that are usually mentioned in a literature are complexity of its digital circuitry and finite phase resolution resulting in larger jitter sensitivity and higher error rate. This thesis will show that those problems can be solved by designing a new algorithm of BO-CDR and subsequent optimization. For this task an FPGA was selected as simulation and verification platform. This enables to change parameters of the optimized circuit in real time while measuring on real links (unlike a simulation using inaccurate link models). The output of this optimization is a new BO-CDR algorithm with heavily reduced complexity and very low error rate. A new FPGA-based method of jitter measurement was developed (primary for CDR analysis), which enables a quick link characterization without using probing or additional equipment. The new method requires only a minimum usage of FPGA resources. Finally, new measurement equipment was developed to measure bit error distribution on FSO links to be able to develop a suitable error correction scheme based on ARQ protocol.

Die extrem große Bandbreite, die UWB-Systeme zur Übertragung von Daten nutzen können, ermöglicht theoretisch eine sehr hohe Datenrate. Eine mögliche Umsetzung der UWB-Technologie ist die sogenannte Multiband-Impuls-Radio-Architektur (MIRA). Dieses UWB-System basiert auf der Übertragung von Daten mittels kurzer Impulse parallel in mehreren Frequenzbändern. Als Empfänger kommen einfache Energiedetektoren zum Einsatz. Diese Komponenten haben entscheidenden Einfluss auf die Leistungsfähigkeit des gesamten Systems. Deshalb liegt der Schwerpunkt dieser Arbeit auf der Untersuchung der Leistungsfähigkeit und im speziellen der Herleitung der Bitfehlerwahrscheinlichkeiten für Energiedetektoren in unterschiedlichen UWB-Kanälen. Aufgrund des sehr einfachen Aufbaus eines Energiedetektors wird dieser auch in vielen anderen Bereichen eingesetzt. So werden Energiedetektoren zur Detektion von freien Bereichen im Übertragungsspektrum bei Cognitive Radio und für weitere unterschiedliche Übertragungssysteme wie z.B. Sensorsysteme mit geringer Datenrate und Übertragungssysteme die zusätzlich Ortung ermöglichen, genutzt.

The dissertation thesis deals with a WLAN and Bluetooth systems coexistence. A Bluetooth standard works in an unlicensed frequency band 2,402 – 2,480 GHz. This frequency band is also used by an IEEE 802.11b/g standard (Wi-Fi) which is the most extended representative of WLAN networks. Because Bluetooth and Wi-Fi systems operate in the same frequency band, a mutual signal degradation may appear, when devices are collocated in the same area. In the first part of the dissertation thesis there is a brief summary of 2,402 - 2,480 GHz frequency band regulations and its usage. There are described physical layers of Bluetooth and IEEE 802.11b/g standards and techniques used for a collision avoidance. The main part of the dissertation thesis deals with a development of a new Matlab Simulink model for investigations of the Bluetooth and Wi-Fi standards coexistence. Physical layer models and results of the coexistence simulations are verified by a measurement in real conditions with a help of a modern vector signal analyzer. The results are presented in a graphical form and a brief summary is attached at the end of each chapter. Corresponding tables of simulated and measured values are available in the enclosed CD.
