Abstract:
1. A method of ultra-wideband communication, the method comprising the steps of: assigning a portion of a plurality of non-overlapping sub-channels to a first ultra-wideband communication device; receiving interference information from the first ultra-wideband communication device; reducing the portion of non-overlapping sub-channels assigned to the ultra-wideband communication device in response to the interference information, thereby creating a group of available non-overlapping sub-channels; and assigning the group of available non-overlapping sub-channels to a second ultra-wideband communication device, wherein the ultra-wideband communication device transmits a plurality of discrete electromagnetic pulses over at least one of the non-overlapping sub-channels, with each pulse occupying more than 500 megahertz of a radio frequency spectrum.
