PPM_RX_Reference_Pulser

PPM_RX_Reference_Pulser outputs a waveform that is the sum of the pulse waveform produced by PPM_TX_PULSE_GENERATOR when the data input is 1 with the inverse of the output when the data input is 0.

The output represents a pulse position modulated UWB waveform. The input data bits are spread using a spreading code. The pulse shape output is determined by selecting sub-components of PULSE_SHAPE_GENERATOR; for details, refer to PULSE_SHAPE_GENERATOR.

Name	Description	Default	Unit	Type	Range
TStepsPerPPMBitOffset	Length of offset between a value of 1 and 0 in a PPM modulated code. The length is given in the number of TStep long intervals in the offset time. This make the offset between 0 and 1 an integer number of possible pulse positions.	1		Integer	>0
ChipsPerBit	Number of pulses transmitted for each bit	1		Integer	>1
DitherBits	Number of bits used to the dither position of a PPM pulse within each pulse interval. 2 DitherBits pulse positions are possible within each PPM pulse interval.	5		Integer	>0
TStepsPerDither	Determines the number of simulation time steps between each possible position.	5		Integer	>0
