Wireless Communications - Spectrum Challenges in Today's Environment

Summary form only for tutorial. Wireless communications has become an important tool for the engineer managing communications within today's office and factory environments. Advances in RF communications, such as Ultra-Wideband, hold the promise of flexibility and substantially reduced costs. These advances, however, have a direct impact on the RF spectrum. Care must be taken to limit the adverse impact on the RF spectrum and avoid the degradation of a valuable limited resource.
