IEEE CCNC, Jan. 5, 2005 www.instat.com/R/wcpanwww.instat.com/R/mmit Early 2005: Proprietary chipsets Jan 2005 CES: Prototype UWB-enabled CE devices, kits/adapters 1H05: Chipset integration into CE devices – testing stage & manufacturers ramp up Xmas 2005/2006: Line-powered devices (NOT battery-powered or mobile) like DTVs, PVRs, PCs Xmas 2006/2007: Battery-powered devices like digital camcorders and digital still cameras Mobile Phones? WW standard needed High-Speed UWB Market Rollout UWB transmissions not allowed worldwide yet - In process Goal to replace connectors, primarily USB and 1394 cables, between variety of CE and PC devices

6. IEEE CCNC, Jan. 5, 2005 www.instat.com/R/wcpanwww.instat.com/R/mmit UWB Silicon Trends Initially, mostly two-chip chipsets, but some targeting early single chip versions Radios in SiGe & BiCMOS Some single-chip PHY: RF Transceiver, TX/RX Switch & BB Many solutions will migrate to a single chip 2006-2007 Dedicated processor best for now – Host processing not expected to happen soon
