Performance of the Multi-Band OFDM UWB System With Time-Varying Channels

Overview Multi-band OFDM, proposed as a standard for wireless personal area network (WPAN) physical layer in, is a promising technology for ultra wide band (UWB) transmission, thanks to the maturity of high rate orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) technology, and its effectiveness in combating time-dispersive channels. On the other hand, OFDM performances drop dramatically in the presence of time-varying channels, and thus it is worthwhile to evaluate the robustness of Multi-band OFDM with respect to time-varying environments.

Radioactive: Bluetooth - survival of the fastest

The opposing technology approaches are orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) and direct sequence (DS)-UWB. The term 'ultra-wide band' was first coined by the US Department of Defence in 1989 which was using it for ground-penetrating radar.

Live Webcast: Telecoms 2.0 - Where is telecoms heading?

In this webcast, our panel of experts will review where we are with next generation telecoms in the UK, working through the concept of 'Telecoms 2.0': - Realising the potential of Next Generation Networks - why it isn't just about the technology? - What attributes should firms be looking for in their telco partner? - Is the relationship between telco provider and customer changing? - What things need to happen to make next generation services a reality? - You say you want the supplier to change. Do you want to change too? - What is Telecoms 2.0?
