UWB Players Still Haggling Over Referee
Just a quick update on the story we had last month about Pulse Link's technology that would let the competing UWB standards work at the same time without stamping each other out. Apparently, a task group met last week to try to get both sides on board for this program, but the Multiband OFDM folks still aren't interested. They point out (and I tend to agree) that this won't solve the real problem - which is that there will still be incompatible standards that will cause market confusion and slow down adoption.
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
