First Claim
1. A master transceiver configured to transmit an ultra wide band signal, comprising:
- at least one slave transceiver in communication with the master transceiver; and
a framing control unit housed by the master transceiver, the framing control unit configured to generate a plurality of TDMA frames, each of the plurality of TDMA frames having a plurality of slots, each of the plurality of slots having a start of frame slot;
wherein the start of frame slot includes a timestamp slot that is configured to permit the master transceiver to change each of the plurality of TDMA frames.

Abstract
The present invention describes a network communication system which includes a first slave transceiver configured to communicate a plurality of TDMA data packets at different data rates to a second slave transceiver. The second slave transceiver is also configured to communicate a plurality of TDMA data packets at different data rates to the first slave transceiver. A master transceiver manages data communications between the first slave transceiver and the second slave transceiver. Each transceiver includes a data modulation unit, a transmitter, an antenna, and a receiver. The transmitter is coupled to the data modulation unit and the transmitter is configured to generate a pulse stream according to the data modulation unit. The receiver is configured to detect and demodulate said ultra wide band base band signals operating at variable pulse repetition frequencies and having different modulation methods.
