Introduction
l Main points that will be covered:
UltraWideBand (UWB) and where it is useful Pulse UWB (P-UWB) and Frequency Hopped UWB (FH-UWB) A Typical Positioning System The Challenges and Possible Solutions:
n n n
Applications
l Positioning
High Multipath Environments Obscured Environments
l Communications
High Multipath Environments Short Range High Data Rate Low Probability of Intercept/ Interference
l Radar/Sensor
Military and Commercial: Asset Protection Anti-Terrorist/Law Enforcement Rescue Applications
Thales Research and Technology
Lone Workers (safety) Navigation in Airports, Railway stations, car parks etc
l More applications once initial systems deployed l Data transmission can be included
Data Rate depends on range (a few tens of kbps to Mbps)

Ringing - Reduced accuracy - Reduced multipath resistance Can insert nulls into the transmit spectrum Attenuation achievable limited by hardware constraints (for example maximum pulse rate) Compromise
- Reduces interference to other systems - Restricts the choice of Pulse Sequences
