Ultra Wideband Wireless Communication

Focusing on ultra wideband (UWB) communication technology for applications including WPAN, sensor and ad-hoc networks, as well as wireless telemetry and telemedicine, Ultra Wideband Wireless Communication covers both theory and practical issues, including RF, hardware and circuit issues and digital signal processing aspects. Practical “real-world” case study chapters include network and transceiver practical design, and discussions and performance results.
