Abstract

We are building single chip CMOS solutions which implement the WiMedia ultrawideband radio standard. This includes a WiMedia compliant radio (PHY), baseband, medium access controller (MAC), a processor, memory and standard I/O interfaces. Firmware can be loaded into the processor so that the device can support Bluetooth 3.0, WiNet (Internet protocols), and certified wireless USB.
