    Abstract: An apparatus, including: an oscillator configured to generate a clock signal; a clock signal synthesizer configured to generate a first clock signal, a second clock signal, and a third clock signal, wherein the first, second, and third clock signals are based on the clock signal; a baseband transmitter configured to generate a transmit baseband digital signal in response to the first clock signal; an ultra-wideband (UWB) pulse digital-to-analog converter (DAC) configured to generate a UWB pulse signal based on the transmit baseband digital signal in response to the second clock signal; and a frequency upconverter configured to frequency upconvert the UWB pulse signal to generate a transmit radio frequency (RF) signal based on the third clock signal.

    Abstract: Aspects described herein include devices and methods for smart ultra wideband transmissions. In one aspect, an apparatus includes pulse generation circuitry configured to output a plurality of transmission (TX) pulse samples at a selected signal sample rate, where each pulse sample of the plurality of TX pulse samples comprises a value associated with a pulse amplitude at a corresponding sample time The apparatus includes a plurality of power amplifier (PA) cells, with each PA cell of the plurality of PA cells comprising a corresponding current source and associated gates, and where the associated gates of a PA cell are selectable to configure an on state and an off state. Logic circuitry of the apparatus is configured to set the on state or the off state for each PA cell.
