Time-frequency Interleaving (TFI) or Fixed Frequency Interleaving (FFI) is used to spread the transmit power among the three sub-bands thereby increasing the peak transmit power and optimizing the range.

TR-UWB• TR-UWB was a strong candidate signaling scheme in the original
effort of 802.15.4a (location and low data rate applications), but a major implementational issue – delay line – killed this approach– Eventually the group adapted burst mode PPM (pulse position
modulation)
• In the TR-UWB systems [3] each frame consists of two pulses– The first is a reference pulse and has a fixed polarity
– The second is the data pulse and follows the reference pulse with some known delay, D
– The reference pulse provides a template to which to match the data pulse

Complexity of TR-UWB vs. Simplicity of FRS-UWB
• The General Electric team developed a testbed for the standard TR-UWB that required a 20-foot coaxial cable in the receiver because of the need for a 20ns wideband analog delay element [11].
• The proposed FSR-UWB system is simple enough to have been implemented by University of Massachusetts at Amherst undergraduates.
– The prototype operates with at up to10 kbps in the 600 MHz-7 GHz range
• Our simulations based on the latest BAN channel models demonstrate feasibility of 10 Mbps operation
• FSR-UWB system uses a reference that is a slightly frequency-shifted version of the data-bearing signal.
• The reference signal and data signal are orthogonal over a symbol interval.
• For low data rates, the frequency shift between the reference signal and data signal is small compared to the channel coherence bandwidth. The reference goes through approximately the same
• A symbol interval Ts = Nf * Tf ; Nf frames, each of duration Tf
• Nf can be increased until either:
– The gains from the increased average energy are offset by the degradation due to interframe interference (IFI), or…
– The FCC spectral limit is reached
• FSR-UWB requires only 1 pulse per frame, vs. TR-UWB that requires 2 pulses per frame, which means that Nf can be higher for FSR-UWB, improving signal integrity
• FSR-UWB is also more tolerant of IFI and, thus, can employ a higher Nf to improve average energy aggregation;
• With the FCC constraint Nf,FSR=5.83*Nf,TR
• Over a wide range of error probabilities and constraints, FSR-UWB offers a 1.0 to 1.5 dB gain over TR-UWB
FSR-UWB System Considerations• In the FSR-UWB, a frequency offset between the reference impulse train and
data impulse train is the inverse of the symbol period.
• Pulse shaping waveform is half the frequency of the data rate and this frequency, f0 = 1/(2*TS), must be below the frequency coherence of the channel
• Frequency coherence of the channel – the bandwidth over which the channel is roughly constant – is described by the channel models
• Symbol timing, δ, must also be synchronized [symbol clock]– This can be achieved using adaptive algorithms to minimize Е[Λ2(δ)] versus δ
The delay element of the standard TR-UWB scheme has been replaced by a mixer in (a). Since multiplication is commutative, the receiver in (a) can be drawn in the more convenient form given in (b).
