Abstract :
This paper investigates a home entertainment network proposal that applies the advantages of ultra wideband (UWB) radio technology and the IEEE 1394 system. We first introduce an overview of the IEEE 1394 standard. Then we describe the network architecture of our proposed home networking scheme, namely IEEE 1394-based UWB home entertainment network connected by a wireless 1394 bridge. The IEEE 1394 backbone network and UWB radio subsystem are discussed in detail. Summaries are provided as well.
