Ultra Wide Band (UWB) radio is an interesting radio paradigm for the provision of wireless access to the Internet, in the short-range area. The UWB technology has the potential to combine reduced transceivers complexity with low power consumption, flexible configuration of the radio links and robustness with respect to multipath fading. The IST project WHYLESS.COM, funded by the European Union, is studying the potentiality of this technique for the development of an Open Mobile Access Network, i.e., an access network based on a versatile air interface, which, when combined with suitable IP-based operations, can provide an open platform to support QoS aware services. In this paper, we present a proposal for a network architecture where UWB radio access procedures are combined with a stateless IP QoS paradigm.

Abstract
Ultra Wide Band (UWB) radio is an interesting radio paradigm for the provision of wireless access to the Internet, in the short-range area. The UWB technology has the potential to combine reduced transceivers complexity with low power consumption, flexible configuration of the radio links and robustness with respect to multipath fading. The IST project WHYLESS.COM, funded by the European Union, is studying the potentiality of this technique for the development of an Open Mobile Access Network, i.e., an access network based on a versatile air interface, which, when combined with suitable IP-based operations, can provide an open platform to support QoS aware services. In this paper, we present a proposal for a network architecture where UWB radio access procedures are combined with a stateless IP QoS paradigm.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
