Rapid and accurate synchronization constitutes a major challenge in deploying Ultra-Wideband impulse radio (UWB-IR) for indoor wireless communications.This paper develops a data-aided (DA) synchro-nization algorithm dispensing with searching procedures for UWB-IR communications.By adopting a stream of alternating orthogonal pulses,frame-level synchronization can be achieved without channel information.With-out utilizing any searching procedure,the timing offset estimator is obtained in a closed form.Because exhaustive search can be avoided,both computational complexity and synchronization time are reduced.Simulations and comparisons are provided to illustrate the advantages of our design over the alternatives.
