This paper introduces new techniques for ultra-wideband (UWB) joint spatial coding in order to establish a secure line-of-sight wireless communication link, performing precision localization of point objects, and generating high-resolution images from complex scenes. For the proposed technique, symbol generation and coding are jointly performed by multiple widely spaced transmitters. This method enables the transmission of directionally modulated signals that can only be decoded at a desired angle, resulting in a secure communication link. It is also shown that joint spatial coding by multiple transmitters that are synchronized with each other enables the precise localization of multiple point objects and allows high-resolution 3-D imaging of distributed objects. The technique is demonstrated experimentally in the frequency range 3–10 GHz by generating and detecting UWB pulses.
