  2. Ultra-Wideband:A New Wireless Technology • A military technology transitioning to the commercial market • Simultaneous delivery of • High Data Rate • Low Power – Long Battery Life • Low Cost • FCC approved on February 14, 2002: 3.1-10.6 GHz IEEE Wireless Communications and Networking Conference (WCNC'2003), 19Mar03

  3. UWB - A Unique Opportunity • A fundamental change in this allocation of spectrum • Wide low-power versus  narrow high-power • Requires new thought as to the utilization of this allocation(don’t be entrapped by legacy narrowband approaches) • A technology who’s fundamental benefits come from the unique nature of wide bandwidth transmissions within multipath • Capturing these benefits requires a move away from legacy incoherent frequency division and toward wide fully coherent processing. • A market opportunity that changes the fundamental tradeoffs of performance vs. cost/power consumption • Bluetooth price, but speed and QoS beyond 802.11a,g • An intersection of PC and CE products (inc. mobile telephony) IEEE Wireless Communications and Networking Conference (WCNC'2003), 19Mar03

  4. Fundamental Issues • Multi-user performance • Consumer usage means pervasive horizontal deployment • Simultaneous full rate support • Each user will want to take full advantage of the maximum rate supported with high QOS in multipath • Spectral Flexibility and Scalability • For new regulatory environments on a worldwide basis • Modifications to existing rules • Narrowband Interference avoidance/mitigation • For existing systems (UNII band) and new narrowband allocations IEEE Wireless Communications and Networking Conference (WCNC'2003), 19Mar03

  5. Full Rate SupportFor Multiple Overlapping Piconets • High aggregate rates in multipath • Modulation choice for low SNR - Efficiency is key in two domains • Constellation with greatest distance between points – Lowest SNR • Scalability - High ratio of incremental performance versus hardware complexity/power • BPSK & QPSK with M-BOK provide both • Multiple Access Techniques • CDMA (Maximize coding on all radiated energy) • FDMA (Effective for extreme situations • back to back TV sharing a wall between two apartments) • TDMA within a piconet (QoS guarantee) IEEE Wireless Communications and Networking Conference (WCNC'2003), 19Mar03

  7. Spectral Flexibility & Scalability • New bands easy to add • Clear Channel Assessment Capability Allows All MAC modes and simple scaleable management • Processing gain against narrowband interference – 6dB lo-band, 9dB hi-band rel. to 500MHz BW bands • Bandwidth programmable with current-controlled cut-off frequency Low Pass filter • Center frequency programmable with PLL Example 1: Modified Low Band to include protection for 4.9-5.0 GHz WLAN Band Example 2: Support for hypothetical “above 6 GHz only” UWB definition 3 4 5 6 3 4 5 6 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 IEEE Wireless Communications and Networking Conference (WCNC'2003), 19Mar03
