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.
