Over the past 20 years UWB has been used for radar, sensing,
military communications and niche applications. However, since the
FCC ruling in 2002, which allowed the commercial operation of UWB
for data communications, UWB has changed dramatically.
Implementation oriented, this volume explores the fundamentals
of UWB technology with particular emphasis on impulse radio (IR)
techniques. It explains the key physical layer aspects of UWB
technology, especially in communications and in control
applications, and examines the multiple access (MAC) issues which
are emerging as a hot area for practical UWB systems.
* Offers practical information about implementation
* Addresses issues of modulation possibilities, appropriate
circuits for UWB, an example circuit design, MAC protocol issues
and use of UWB for positioning applications
* Includes a literature survey examining books, articles and
conference papers presenting the basic features of UWB technology
and current systems
* Features a patent database search providing a historical
perspective to the state-of-the-art technology
UWB Theory and Applications will be indispensable to
researchers interested in the practical issues of UWB technology
and realistic assumptions of UWB, as well as engineers interested
in implementing UWB devices.
