UWB is a short-range, low-power technology that can support very high data rates for personal connectivity. As such, its function within a home or office environment is complementary to 802.11 WLAN which is best suited for long-range networking and Ethernet cable replacement. This synergy between WPAN and WLAN allows host connectivity with a plurality of portable peripherals while freeing bandwidth from the WLAN to support robust network connectivity between multiple PCs and intelligent hub devices within the home or office space.
