PULSERS II:

The PULSERS (Pervasive Ultra-wideband Low Spectral Energy Radio Systems) project aims at exploration of the enormous potential of the innovative and disruptive radio technology embodied in Ultra-Wideband (UWB) and at enabling introduction of new services, applications and devices based on this technology.

Synopsis	PULSERS ambitious targets may be summarized as i) R&D on UWB-RT technology, a challenging task in LDR-LT and VHDR, ii) use scenario and business case evaluation, system concept development and integrated system definition inclusive the verification platform implementation iii) contribution to regulation and standardisation targeting to set pre-conditions for harmonised and viable (from technical and economical point of view) legal and technical framework enabling the use if UWB-RT and thus starting a new era of locally spatial efficient spectrum (re) use. Selected high level project’s systems and technology targets to be achieved are: • Wireless networking, where application and network management are supported by precise and up-to-date location information; • Satisfy increasing demand for short range very high data rate wireless data transmission for computer and consumer electronics industry applications • Availability of truly low power and low cost UWB-RT, which offers inherently significant benefits compared to state-of-the-art short- range wireless technologies.
