Abstract The major constraints in the design of Wireless Body Area Network(WBAN) can be attributed to the battery autonomy, need for high data rate services and low interference from the devices operating within the industrial, scientific and medical (ISM) bands. To meet the demand for high data rate services and low power spectral density to avoid ISM band interference, an ultra-wide band(UWB) system based technology has been proposed. This paper focuses on the design and demonstration of an UWB modem to be used in the WBAN applications and the evaluation of its performance in a near-real world scenarios affected by additive white Gaussian noise(AWGN) interference. The modem is tested with different values of signal to noise ratio(SNR). Results show that the performance of the modem degrades as the value of SNR decreases.

In Wireless Communication, the transmission channel suffers due to multipath propagation and channel dispersion due to Inter Symbol Interference (ISI), thereby degrades the system performance greatly. Future communication requires high data rate and effective utilization of bandwidth. Hence, there is a need to improve the Bit Error Rate (BER). The proposed work is Adaptive Modulation (AM), combined with Multi Carrier Code Division Multiple Access (MC-CDMA) based transmission system. It is a promising way to increase the data rate and it uses bandwidth in a efficient manner. The Adaptive Modulation based MC-CDMA systems applied to a wide-area environment, can achieve high data rate up to 100Mbps. In this paper M-ary PSK, M-ary QAM and M-ary CPM modulation techniques are used. The Adap-tive modulation based MC-CDMA systems perform well for around 10 number of users. As a whole, the adaptive MC-CDMA system is found to give the optimum BER performance of given digital modulation schemes for fourth generation environment.
