Power Allocation for Multi-Band OFDM UWB Communication Networks

Overview Ultra wideband (UWB) technology has shown significant advantages over other existing ones for short- or medium-range high speed communications. It can adopt different modulation and signaling formats, among which multi-band OFDM is a more favorable candidate for the upcoming standard. Though extensive study on physical layer has been conducted, limited work exists in the literature on design of medium access control (MAC) layer protocols. This paper proposes an efficient low-complexity power allocation technique for clustered multi-band OFDM UWB networks.

Radioactive: Bluetooth - survival of the fastest

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

WiMax comes to Westminster

Urban WiMax will operate in the 5.8GHz band, which is subject to a light licensing regime. A recent report from Infonetics claimed that the WiMax market will be worth $1.6bn by 2009 but the OECD took a more pessimistic view, claiming that poor...

The document will also employ a cryptographic technique called Basic Access Control, which means the RFID chip unveils its contents only after a reader successfully authenticates itself as being authorized to receive that information.

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?

Telecom 2.0: Mind over matter

ntl:Telewest Business believes that the role of the telco is evolving. Gone are the days when it was enough to simply focus on circuits and minutes, customers now need a far higher degree of interaction and look for suppliers who will talk business solutions with them.
