Abstract
Ultra wide band communication systems and methods are provided. In one embodiment, an ultra wide band communication system includes a first and a second communication device. A lowest common ultra wide band pulse repetition frequency is determined, and data is transmitted between the communication devices using the lowest common ultra wide band pulse repetition frequency. In another embodiment, a first and second slave transceiver communicate with a master transceiver using a time division multiple access frame, with the master transceiver providing transmission synchronization. This Abstract is provided for the sole purpose of complying with the Abstract requirement rules that allow a reader to quickly ascertain the subject matter of the disclosure contained herein. This Abstract is submitted with the explicit understanding that it will not be used to interpret or to limit the scope or the meaning of the claims.

8. A communication method, the method comprising the steps of:
-
providing a first and a second communication device;
transferring data between the first and second communication devices by transmitting a plurality of ultra wide band pulses;
determining a bit-error-rate of the data transfer; and
adjusting an ultra wide band pulse repetition frequency based on the bit-error-rate. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12)

13. A communication system, comprising:
-
a first slave transceiver having a transmitter structured to transmit a plurality of ultra wide band pulses;
a second slave transceiver structured to communicate with the first slave transceiver by receiving the plurality of ultra wide band pulses; and
a master transceiver in communication with both slave transceivers, wherein the master transceiver provides a transmission synchronization of a time division multiple access frame comprising the plurality of ultra wide band pulses. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 21, 22, 23)
