Abstract :
In this paper, we describe the results of a study carried out to evaluate the cumulative effects of devices using ultrawideband (UWB) technology upon the electromagnetic environment, specifically their contributions to the raising of the ambient levels. These effects have been quantified, and an electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) methodology developed to assess the interference potential of UWB devices with respect to conventional radiocommunications systems.
