In order to improve the detection performance of ultra-wideband signals and obtain a higher detection signal-to-noise ratio, based on the traditional bistable stochastic resonance model, an improved stochastic resonance method is proposed to detect, analyze and compare pulse-modulated ultra-wideband signals. The simulation experiment proves that the improved stochastic resonance method has obvious effect on ultra-wideband signal detection, and is superior to traditional algorithms in terms of signal-to-noise ratio and cross-correlation coefficient.
