Link: New UWB Technology for Your Home, Car or Flight :: RadioComms
Ultra-wideband (UWB) radio, also known as ultraband, uses a broad segment of the radio spectrum to transmit and receive data, giving it versatility that, over short distances at least, few other wireless communications technologies can match. At very high data rates it can be used to stream huge amounts of data very quickly – substituting and surpassing USB cables for interconnecting computers and mobile devices, for example. At low data rates, it offers a robust communications channel and, uniquely, real-time and precise positioning features, all at a fraction of the power consumption of Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or other wireless technologies.
