Abstract

Overview
The report researches the UWB technology and market landscape by examining the current state of the technology, standards, market and the industry. The study looks to provide a deeper understanding to wide audience UWB specifics, advantages and limitations. It also looks further, until 2010-2011, with market forecast and technology progress.

UWB technology includes not only low-power wireless networks linking phones, computers, and televisions without the need for hard-wiring, but, potentially, also cell phones that could help determine a user's location for a 911 emergency operator. With UWB, radio signals can penetrate nearby surfaces while reflecting off surfaces that are farther away. This capability allows radar-type applications to detect objects, such as people or weapons, behind walls or under surfaces, such as a collapsed building. UWB technology also can precisely measure distance and movement to within few inches.
