Introduction
• Ultra - wideband  is a radio technology that
can be used at very low energy levels for
short-range high-bandwidth communications by
using a large portion of the radio spectrum.
•  Technology for transmitting information
spread over a large bandwidth (>500 MHz) that
should, in theory and under the right
circumstances, be able to share spectrum with
other users.

Working
Ø A UWB transmitter works by sending billions of
pulses across a very wide spectrum of
frequency several GHz in bandwidth.
Ø The corresponding receiver then translates the
pulses into data by listening for a familiar
pulse sequence sent by the transmitter.

Pros
• High data capacity .
– Can support close to 30,000 users at 19.2kbps with BER
of 10 or a 6 users system with a peak speed of
-3
50mbps.
• Low power .
– Transmitting at microwatts results in very low harmful
interference to other radio systems. Usually below
the noise floor and undetectable.
– Longer battery life for mobile devices.
• Resilient to distortions and fading ( Great for
indoor usage ).
– Spread spectrum property overcomes frequency selective
fading.
– High information redundancy and frequency diversity
provides protection against multi-path distortion.
• Simplicity translate to lower hardware cost .
– No carrier frequency translate analog front-end has
simpler implementation than traditional
sinusoidal radio.
• Security
– Only a receiver that knows the schedule of the 8, CUSA

Cons
• Interference with GPS .
– UWB presents a problem to GPS because their
frequency overlaps, and GPS signal is particular
sensitive to interference .
• Limited on range
– Output power is limited in order to keep down the
noise floor due to its overlapping frequency
bandwidth with other radio systems.
• One kilometer with high gain antenna.
• Ten to twenty meter with regular antenna.
• Affects on economy and current businesses .
– Speculations on UWB making current billion
dollar FCC licensed frequencies worthless.
– Increased competition for local cable or phone
company. Making their existent investments
on cable and equipments obsolete.

Conclusion

• In today's era of mobile communication UWB


technology is next step toward it as it
provides a wide bandwidth, low cost and
low power consumption for the need of
mobile communication as try to remove the
barrier in the way to wireless
communication.
• So its next step toward the funda of mobile
communication i.e. Anything , Anywhere ,
Anytime .
