Abstract
Ultra-Wideband (UWB) is a technology anticipated to dominate the home networking market and eventually provide carriers with an inexpensive LAN alterative. It offers very high data rates, low power , less expensive cost. UWB provides 100 times the data speeds of Bluetooth solution and allows transmission of large amounts of data i.e. video files between TVs or PCs as well as enabling high quality video applications for portable devices. UWB will either become a new age communication or the end of an old technology, and probably both will stay. This chapter presents the overview of UWB technology and its potential application, and the UWB regulation standard worldwide. The UWB short impulse and advantages/disadvantages UWB are also presented.
