Will Ultra Wideband Technology Redefine the Wireless Landscape?
VIEW ARCHIVED VERSION
Moderated by Brian Fuller, EE Times, Editor in Chief

Next-generation cellular systems that combine voice, data, video and audio services are likely to use short-range wireless access to the wired Internet infrastructure instead of to the current telephone network. Ultra Wideband Technology is a wireless technology that potentially offers high-bandwidth communications without the constraints of spectrum allocation - with the added benefits of precise location detection and the ability to seemingly see through walls. Our panel of experts will look into the promise and peril of UWB.

Panelists:
• Bob Brodersen, Professor, University of California at Berkeley
• Robert Fleming, CTO and Principal of the Board, Aether Wire and Location Inc.
• John McCorkle, Co-Founder and CTO, XtremeSpectrum Inc.
• Andy Rappaport, Analyst, August Capital
