Bridged ultra-wideband communication method and apparatus
First Claim
1. A communication system comprising:
- a receiver structured to receive a plurality of electromagnetic pulses, with the electromagnetic pulses configured to include communication data. a demodulator communicating with the receiver, the demodulator structured to demodulate the communication data from the plurality of electromagnetic pulses; and
a transmitter coupled to the demodulator, the transmitter structured to transmit a plurality of electromagnetic pulses, the pulses configured to include communication data;
wherein the transmitted and received electromagnetic pulses are either a plurality of single-band electromagnetic pulses or a plurality of multi-band electromagnetic pulses.
