Ultra wideband RF system engineering This comprehensive summary of the state of the art in Ultra Wideband (UWB) system engineering takes you through all aspects of UWB design from components through the propagation channel to system engineering aspects. Mathematical tools and basics are covered allowing for a complete characterisation and description of the UWB scenario in both the time and the frequency domains. UWB MMICs antennas antenna arrays and filters are described as well as quality measurement parameters and design methods for specific applications. The UWB propagation channel is discussed including a complete mathematical description together with modeling tools. A system analysis is offered addressing both radio and radar systems and techniques for optimization and calibration. Finally an overview of future applications of UWB technology is presented. Ideal for scientists as well as RF system and component engineers working in short range wireless technologies
