TLDR
In this article, two UWB multiband systems, frequency hopping and Spectral Keying, have been described, both of which meet the stringent requirements provided by IEEE 802.15.3a.
Abstract
The recent FCC frequency allocation for UWB has generated a lot of interest in UWB technologies. There is 7,500 MHz of spectrum for unlicensed use. The main limitations are provided by the low-power spectral density and by the fact that the transmit signal must occupy at least 500 MHz at whole times. IEEE 802.15.3a is being developed for high-bit-rate PAN applications, and UWB is the most promising technology to support the stringent requirements: 110, 200, and 480 Mb/s. Two UWB multiband systems, frequency hopping and Spectral Keying, have been described in this article. Both systems meet the stringent requirements provided by IEEE 802.15.

Full length article: Accurate analysis of a high data rate UWB-DTR system in dense multipath fading channels

TL;DR: An analytical framework to evaluate the exact bit error rate (BER) performance of a high data rate Ultra-Wideband Differential Transmitted-Reference (UWB-DTR) system over a perfect IEEE 802.15.3a Channel Model 1 (CM1) is developed and log-normal fading is considered, which is an essential characteristic of CM1, for the first time.

Code hopping - direct sequence spread spectrum to compensate for intersymbol interference in an ultra-wideband system

TL;DR: The central idea is that code hopping (CH) affects ISI amplitudes that are produced by both the cross-and the auto-correlation properties of spreading codes for codewords; not just by the latter as occurs without CH.
