Ultra-wideband (UWB) could connect multiple devices wirelessly. A wireless technology, which could hasten the arrival of the connected digital home, has been given the green light by media regulator Ofcom. Ultra-Wideband can be used to connect devices such as PCs, MP3 players and digital cameras, BBC reported.
UWB uses part of the radio spectrum to transfer large amounts of data, such as media files, over short distances. Data can be shifted over distances of around 30m at up to 2 gigabits per second.
Technologies that use the radio spectrum normally require a license for their use so that Ofcom can regulate any interference between spectrum users, such as radio stations or the emergency services.
