What are UWBs advantages?
The main advantages of UWB technology are high data rates, low cost and low power. This means that many types of devices in the home and business environments (such as laptops, mobile phones, TVs, DVDs, memory sticks, digital cameras and MP3 players) could be networked wirelessly at a data rate that would effectively be impossible using “classical” radio technology. This is because of UWB’s very large data rate (up to 500 Mbit/second currently and maybe even higher later) at very low power and at low cost. The operation range is several metres, up to around 10 metres, though the further away the devices are, the lower the data rate.
