    Ultra-wideband (UWB) is a wireless technology that transmits digital data at very high rates using low power over large bandwidth. It has advantages like high data transfer rates over short ranges, immunity to multipath interference, and low power and cost. UWB has applications in wireless personal area networks, military communications, ground penetrating radar, and intelligent sensors. It has potential for future uses like wireless USB by allowing short-range, high-speed file transfers between devices once authenticated. However, UWB also faces challenges like interference with other frequency bands and balancing low power operation with noise.

    WHAT IS UWB?
    Wireless technology for transmitting digital data at very high
    rates, using very low power.
    UWB is ideally suited for short-range and high-speed data
    transmissions for WPAN applications.

    ADVANTAGES OF UWB
    Spectrum
    reuse
    High data rate
    in short range
    Multipath
    immunity

    3.1-10.6 GHz, coexist with other


    users
    500 Mbps at 10 feet
    Path delay >> pulse width

    Low power

    Baseband modulation (no carrier)

    Low cost

    Almost all digital, simple analog


    module

    APPLICATIONS OF UWB
    Communications

    Radar

    Intelligence
    Sensors

    Wireless Personal Area Network


    Military communications

    Ground penetrating radar


    Through-wall radar
    Buried victim rescue

    Telemetry
    Intelligent airbag, driving and
    parking aids
    Intelligent transport system

    Application in : Ground penetrating radar (GPR): Because of Accurate timing information and ultra wide
    bandwidth it is widely applicable for the detection of unknown
    objects under the ground.
    The UWB GPR is used to draw
    a map of gas pipelines buried
    under ground by connecting GPS
    system to the GPR
    o UWB GPR have been intensively
    investigated for mine detection.

    Application in : Military Communication : Attractive for manned and unmanned military vehicles
    Issues associated with cable weight, space, and costs.
    Substantial cost associated with installing and
    modifying cabling embedded within the platform .

    Trade-off: extra ammunition or fuel.

    UWB CHARACTERISTICS
    Extremely low transmission energy
    Extremely difficult to intercept
    Multipath immunity to fading

    Follows Shannons channel capacity theorem


    C:- Maximum channel capacity
    B:- Bandwidth(Hz)
    S/N:- Signal to Noise power Ratio(Watts)

    FUTURE SCOPE
    WIRELESS USB
    The next step for USB technology is wireless USB.
    WUSB will be high speed wireless interconnect technology to take advantage of UWB

    With WUSB, a user can bring a hard disk in proximity to a PC, laptop
    and, once authentication and authorization are complete, files can be
    transferred onto the PC.

    CHALLENGES
    Interference with other licensed bands
    Tradeoffs with noise
    Low power operation

    CONCLUSION
    Well suited for high speed, short range
    WPAN.
    Supports multimedia data rates, and offers
    inherent data security.
    There's a possibility that UWB will become
    the "next best" technology for all types of
    wireless networks, including wireless LANs.
