LDE Replica Coefficient configuration
Register file: 0x2E – Leading Edge Detection Interface, sub-register 0x2804 is a 16-bit configuration register
for setting the replica avoidance coefficient. The accumulator operates on the preamble sequence to give
the channel impulse response. This works because of the perfect periodic auto-correlation property of the
IEEE 802.15.4 UWB preamble sequences. The auto-correlation is not perfect where there is a significant
clock offset between the remote transmitter and the local receiver. In these circumstances small amplitude
replicas of the channel impulse response appear repeatedly throughout the accumulator span. The
magnitude of this effect is dependent on the clock offset and on the preamble code being employed. To
avoid the LDE erroneously seeing one of these replica signals as the leading edge the threshold used for
detecting the first path is artificially raised by a factor depending on the measured clock offset. For optimum
performance this factor also needs to be dependent on the preamble code selected in the receiver. To
achieve this, the LDE_REPC configuration needs to be set depending on the receiver preamble code
configuration. The values required are given in Table 51. These values apply to 850 kbps and 6.8 Mbps data
rates only.
