Automobile Spare Shop(Android App) Abstract-A low-power ultrawideband (UWB) pulse generator based on pulsed oscillator architecture for 3?5 GHz applications is proposed. The pulsed oscillator is improved, so it realizes binary phase shift keying (BPSK) modulation. Unlike ON?OFF keying or pulse-position modulation (PPM), BPSK can scramble the spectrum, so it can be used in high pulse…
