摘要： An ultra wideband antenna comprises a substrate (21). A metal layer deposited on the substrate comprises first and second non-metallic regions (22a, 22b) defined therein. The first and second non-metallic regions (22a, 22b) are arranged on either side of a longitudinal axis (X0), the longitudinal axis (X0) corresponding to a feed axis of the antenna. The first and second non-metallic regions taper towards the first longitudinal (X0) to form a bowtie pattern. Each of the first and second non-metallic regions (22a, 22b) comprises at least one tuning slot (31, 33), the at least one tuning slot (31, 33) being arranged about a respective first axis (X1, X2), the first axis (X1, X2) being parallel to the longitudinal axis (X0), and wherein the at least one tuning slot extends along its respective axis (X1, X2) to form a non-metallic area outside the non-metallic area defined by the respective first and second non-metallic region (22a, 22b). The tapering of the first and second non-metallic regions (22a, 22b) in combination with the at least one pair of tuning slots (31, 33) enables the antenna to be reduced in size, while being capable of operating over at least the UWB frequency range.

摘要： A wireless communication device comprises an integrated circuit comprising electronic circuitry for performing wireless control functions. An external circuit, separate from the integrated circuit, is provided for performing a predetermined stage of a wireless control function, the external circuit comprising at least one discrete component. The at least one discrete component of the external circuit is controlled by one or more control signals received from the integrated circuit. As such, the invention makes use of a low cost external device as the input device in an integrated solution, thus benefiting from the improved performance of the external device while gaining the control and system benefits of a complex integrated solution.

摘要： An ultra-wideband communication system 101 comprises a first device 103, such as a host device or server, which communicates with a second device 105, such as a portable device. The first device 103 comprises a memory 107 for storing data, for example a movie, that is to be downloaded to the second device 105. The first device 103 includes an ultra-wideband transmitter 109 for transmitting data over an air interface to an ultra-wideband receiver 113 in the second device. The effective data transfer rate between the first device 103 and the second device 105 is increased by concatenating two or more frequency sub-bands in a multi-band orthogonal frequency division multiplexing scheme, such that the transmitter 109 in the first device 103 is configured to behave like a number of transmitters, all bursting at the same time. In addition, means are provided for enabling the second device 105 to be located in a fixed positional relationship with the first device 103 during the data transfer operation. The range of the ultra-wideband transmission is reduced significantly to a distance “d” which, in combination with the securing of multiple UWB sub-bands, enables the data throughput to be increased significantly. The distance “d” is less than 30 cm, and preferably touching (without electrical contact).
