In this paper, performance of binary pulse position modulation-time hopping (BPPM-TH) and the binary pulse amplitude modulation-direct sequence (BPAM-DS) ultra wide band (UWB) systems with a double binary turbo code is analyzed and simulated in an indoor wireless channel. The indoor wireless channel is modeled as a modified Saleh and Valenzuela (SV) channel. The performance is evaluated in terms of bit error probability (BER). From the simulation results, it is seen that double binary turbo coding offers considerable coding gain with reasonable encoding complexity. It is also demonstrated that the performance of the UWB system can be substantially improved by increasing the number of iterations.
