Abstract :
Ultra wideband (UWB) transmission was evaluated within a small scientific spacecraft, with a view to partly replacing onboard data buses with wireless connections. Spatial distributions of UWB link throughput were derived from measurements. The results revealed that commercially-available UWB devices were capable of accommodating up to around 90-Mb/s data buses within spacecrafts.
