Filtro Adaptativo de Rank Reduzido para Receptor UWB em Sistemas PLC

This work analyzes the usability of reduced rank adaptive filter with time varying decimation for the reception of impulsive ultra wide band symbols in power line communication systems. The performance analysis of such adaptive filter was carried out when the PLC channel is indoor, linear and time invariant under the presence of additive white gaussian noise (AWGN) ou additive impulsive gaussian noise (AIGN). Computational results shows that this kind of adaptive filter can be very useful for low cost and low bit-rate PLC systems.
