N2 - Among new technologies, Ultra Wideband (UWB) is gathering interests as a short-reach transmission system. At present, as one of the prevailing UWB systems, the MultiBand -orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MB-OFDM) system has attracted much attention where convolutional code (CC) is used. The main contribution of this paper is to evaluate the bit error rate (BER) and decoding complexity performances of MB-OFDM with concatenated coding scheme and Dual Carrier Modulation (DCM) on IEEE 802.15.3a UWB multipath channel model. We employ the CC for the inner code and the Reed Solomon (RS) code for the outer code in the concatenated coding scheme. From the results of our computer simulation, we show good combination of coding rates in the concatenated coding scheme at the data rates of about 320, 400 480 Mbps. We also show that MB-OFDM with concatenated coding scheme can achieve the better BER than MB-OFDM with only CC. In addition, we show that the BER improvement of MB-OFDM with concatenated coding scheme over that with only CC becomes larger as the data rate becomes higher.
