Also known as digital pulse wireless, UWB is a wireless technology for transmitting large amounts of digital data over a wide spectrum of frequency bands with very low power for a short distance. UWB radio not only can carry a huge amount of data over a distance up to 230 feet at very low power (less than 0.5 milliwatts), but has the ability to carry signals through doors and other obstacles that tend to reflect signals at more limited bandwidths and a higher power. Both UWB and Bluetooth are considered personal area network technologies.
(ultra-wideband) is a wireless technology that can operate at very low-power density to communicate at high data rates over short distances using brief and rapid pulses of energy, as opposed to specific communications frequencies.
Ultra Wideband. A method of transmitting information that encompasses a large portion of the radio spectrum.
Ultra wideband. A wireless technology for transmitting large amounts of digital data over a wide spectrum of frequency bands with very low power for a short distance. UWB has the ability to carry signals through doors and other obstacles that tend to reflect signals at more limited bandwidths. UWB is sometimes compared to Bluetooth, a standard for connecting handheld wireless devices with other similar devices and with desktop computers. See also Bluetooth.
Ultrawideband, also called digital pulse, is a wireless technology for transmitting digital data over a wide swath of the radio frequency spectrum with very low power. Because of the low power requirement, it can carry signals through doors and other obstacles that tend to reflect signals at more limited bandwidths and a higher power. It can carry large amounts of data and is used for ground-penetrating radar and radio locations systems.
