A channel access scheme is provided for a pulse-based ultra-wide band network. Here, concurrent ultra-wide band channels may be established through the use of a pulse division multiple access scheme. An access scheme may employ different states each of which may be associated with different channel parameter state information and/or different duty cycles. For example, a channel access scheme may employ an inactive state, an idle state, a connected state, and a streaming state. Multiple logical channels may be defined for a given ultra-wide band channel via, for example, pulse division multiplexing.

Aspects include methods and apparatuses for communicating in an ultra-wideband transmission. For example, some aspects include methods and apparatuses for wireless communications. The method includes, at a first device in communication with at least a second device via a wireless link, monitoring at least one resource for performing at least one function. The method further includes determining whether to assign the at least one function to the at least one second device. The determining is based on information that is indicative of at least one function and indicative of at least one resource of the at least one second device. Other aspects include apparatus and devices for communicating data, including according to one or more aspects of the method. For example, some aspects include devices such as headsets, watches, and medical devices configured to use such methods and apparatuses for communicating data.
摘要:
An apparatus for communications configured to support first and second spread-spectrum channels, each of the first and second channels being based on a different pseudorandom sequence. The apparatus further configured to select one of the first and second channels for communications to avoid a collision of information that would otherwise occur based on their pseudorandom sequences.

摘要:
Relatively short turnaround times are provided in conjunction with two-way ranging to, for example, facilitate accurate ranging measurements when the relative clock drift between ranging nodes (e.g., devices) is relatively high. In some aspects, relatively short turnaround times are achieved through the use of a symmetric channel that is defined to enable concurrent transmission of ranging messages between nodes. For example, a symmetric channel may be established by configuring the nodes to receive one or more pulses associated with a received ranging message in between pulse transmissions associated with a transmitted ranging message. In this way, one node may send a ranging timestamp shortly after the other nodes sends its ranging timestamp, thereby mitigating the impact of the clock drift on the ranging measurements. In some aspects the pulses may comprise ultra-wideband pulses. The techniques described herein may be employed to provide two-way ranging in, for example, low power and/or non-coherent wireless devices.
摘要:
Low power wireless communication techniques may be employed in devices that communicate via a wireless body area network, a wireless personal area network, or some other type of wireless communication link. In some implementations the devices may communicate via one or more impulse-based ultra-wideband channels. Inter-pulse duty cycling may be employed to reduce the power consumption of a device. Power may be provided for the transmissions and receptions of pulses by charging and discharging a capacitive element according to the inter-pulse duty cycling. Sub-packet data may be transmitted and received via a common frequency band. A cell phone may multicast to two or more peripherals via wireless communication links.
