Ultra-wideband (UWB) is a wireless communication technology for short distances. It works over a very large bandwidth and generates short pulses. UWB technology is very energy-efficient, but can also transmit large amounts of data over short distances.
As the signal has a low spectral density, it does not interfere with narrowband transmissions such as Wi-Fi and is difficult to detect. Another advantage is that it is insensitive to multipath - a reflection of the signal on surfaces.
- Frequency range: 3.1 - 10.6 GHz
- Transmission power: 0.5 mW / -41.3 dBm/MHz
- Range: 10 - 50 m (depending on application)
- Data rate: 480 - 1320 Mbit/s
