Project Synopsis

Ultra wideband (UWB) technology is receiving worldwide attention because of its very high data capacity, its low RF power consumption and its ability to coexist with other wireless systems and propagate reliably in cluttered and obstructed environments. CIT has developed unique expertise in the design of UWB hardware, particularly in the area of pulse shaping and filtering, and is working on applications of UWB such as multimedia data transfer, UWB radar for high resolution location and tracking applications and on UWB tagging. This work is taking place in the context of the HEA PRTLI NEMBES programme and also in collaboration with Irish industry.
