Ultra Wideband Systems - Technologies and Applications

Klappentext This multi-author volume! compiled under the guidance of Dr. Roberto Aiello! introduces the theory and concepts behind ultra wideband (UWB) systems as well as their applications. Authors include those involved in creating the UWB standards! researchers! and applications specialists. Zusammenfassung Introduces the theory and concepts behind ultra wideband (UWB) systems as well as their applications. This book is divided into three parts: introduction to UWB! different techniques available! and applications. It also discusses US and international ultra wideband regulations.

Report

"Books on ultra wideband UWB have been pretty scarce. This technology only just emerged from secrecy and obscurity in the late 1990s, and reference works are rare. This once highly classified technology has come out of the closet so to speak, but it has only been recently that some practical books have become available. I say practical meaning books the working engineer can use to design and build real systems without having to get a doctorate in EE. This is just such a book. With a copyright date of 2006, it is pretty current with technology, standards, and applications..." - Louis E. Frenzel, August 2006

It remains to be seen which techniques will be essential to UWB's success as developers " focus on simplifying use, streamlining costs, and staying ahead of advancing data rates," according to Aiello. This book serves as a good foundation on which developers can build.- Rick Nelson, Test & Measurement World, March 2007
