Hi Frank:

Ultra wideband actually came from radar, where to
be called ultrawideband, a signal's BW had to
exceed 25% of the carrier frequency. Paradoxically,
UWB radios use carrierless pulses (although these
pulses take often the form of monocycles). The data
rates contemplated for UWB radios (40+Mbps) fall short
of gigabit Ethernet radios, so we probably still have
the nomenclature wideband < ultrawideband < broadband.

Best regards,

Bernard Levy

Add storage to your list of ultra-wide-broad manglers. "Ultra dense storage" is one I just saw.

Where's Ray??? The "master of modifiers"
We need some new modifiers Ray!! Preferably some good oxymoronic ones, along the lines of "jumbo shrimp."

How 'bout imploded broadband....that would be a synonym for Northpoint<gg>.
