The highlighting throughout the UWB model helps to quickly identify which blocks will be involved in the fixed-point design process. OFDM Receiver The OFDM receiver, as shown in Figure 3 , involves ...

In the case of short-pulse-UWB versus long-pulse MB-OFDM UWB, we are discussing two very divergent architectural approaches that do, indeed, establish drastically different fundamental performance ...

That form of UWB has its problems for some applications but it is still used in ground penetrating radar gear. Then a group of manufacturers invented MB-OFDM UWB to fit the FCCs’ definition of UWB.

In the track to UWB standardization, there has been disagreement within the IEEE 802.15 Task Group 3a between companies promoting Multi-band Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing technology - the ...

This technology will form the foundation for most of the coming UWB products. MB-OFDM divides the UWB spectrum into multiple 528-MHz wide bands, used in groups of three.

MBOA-SIG members conducted tests with devices using the MB-OFDM format showing "there is no greater interference potential from an MB-OFDM UWB waveform than from an impulse-generated UWB waveform, ...

Dallas — Texas Instruments has forged alliances with a pair of industry groups to bring its proprietary ultrawideband (UWB) personal area network (PAN) technology to market in at least two guises: ...

Ultrawideband product development is split into two competing technologies, Freescale's Direct Sequence UWB (DS-UWB) and the Intel/TI-led Multiband OFDM Alliance's MB-OFDM.

In short, DS-UWB has the advantage of being available now, while MB-OFDM is technically more elegant, but is not ready yet. “This is not a race to write a specification, but to deliver ...

The exhibiting specification-building bodies, who are closely working together to ensure interoperability for MB-OFDM ultrawideband products, will include: the MultiBand OFDM Alliance (MBOA-SIG), ...

(WiMedia Alliance, Inc., San Ramon, CA) A membership organization founded in 2002 devoted to the development of short-range, ultra-wideband (UWB) transmission. In 2005, the Multiband OFDM Alliance ...
