Hi Mark: Impulsive/ultra wide band radio is a very interesting technology. I do not know all the players, but there is a group active in this area at the Univ. Southern California. In this technology, the pulses are so short that the pulses travelling on different paths can be resolved completely in the time domain, so that there is no multipath fading problem. The main difficulty, however, is in developing ultrafast electronics for transmitters and receivers. I mentioned this technology on the George Gilder thread a few months ago, but GG did not take the bait-- he is still completely enthused by CDMA-- a fine technology for sure, but not the universal solution for all wireless applications that he makes it to be. Best regards, Bernard Levy
