Is Ultrawideband Too Wide?
It seems that with any new wireless technology there are all sorts of blown-out-of-proportion fears about how it will interfere with other systems. The latest to be caught in such a debate is ultrawideband. It shouldn't be much of a surprise but, some people are worried that UWB will interfere with their own signals. UWB proponents say the fears are overblown, and I tend to agree with them. Every time this issue has come up in the past, it's even been overhyped, or rapidly fixed through the technology.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
