The international standards of high-rate WPAN (Wireless Personal Area network) are under development by IEEE802.15 WPAN TG3 (Task Group 3). The study area of TG3 mainly consists of three parts: high rate physical and media access control layer in 2.4GHz ISM (Industrial Scientific Medical) non licensed frequency band; an alternative high rate physical layer by using UWB (Ultra Wide Band); and another alternative high rate physical layer based on millimeter wave. This paper describes the standardization trends of UWB and millimeter wave.

IEEE802.15에서 표준화가 진행중인 WPAN(wireless personal network)은 개인영역 네트워크 혹은 근거리 무선 네트워크를 구축하기 위한 기술로, 개인용 컴퓨터, PDA, 주변기기, 휴대전화, 가전 등의 휴대나 이동 컴퓨팅을 위한 기술이다. IEEE802.15.1에서는 블루투스, IEEE802.15.4에서는 ZigBee를 위한 저속 WPAN(low rate WPAN) 그리고 IEEE802.15.3에서는 고속 WPAN(high rate WPAN)에 대한 표준화를 담당하고 있다. 본 고에서는 IEEE802.15 산하 TG3a에서 표준화 중인 Alt-PHY 기술로 경합을 벌이고 있는 MBOA(Multi-Band Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing Alliance) UWB(ultrawideband)에 대한 활성화를 꾀하고 있는 WiMedia Alliance의 시험인증 동향을 고찰하고자 한다.

UWB, which is now in a process of being standardized in WPAN communication, has some problems such as difficulty of implementation and interference with existing systems. To overcome these problems we will explain the MIMO structure to alleviate difficulties of implementation. In this paper we propose the UWB transceiver structure using multiband scheme to mitigate narrow band interference from PCS Of WLAN which is widely used these days and analyze the effect of noise and narrow band interference by simulation based on numerical analysis.

In the IEEE 802.15.4a system, they require simple, economical and low power consumption transmitter and receiver to transmit low rate data and to identify distance and location. To meet these requirements, LR-WPAN system use transmitter and receiver with simple modulation and demodulation scheme. In this paper, use PPM+BPSK modulation and windowing scheme to overcome multipath fading effect. Then we apply this channel estimation scheme to LR-WPAN system and compare performance depends on transmitter scheme. Proposed method using preamble to find channel characteristic out and we compensate distorted data with that information. Therefore we can detect signal easily at the demodulation part. Simulation result shows that performance evaluation is greater at the NLOS channel than LOS channel no matter what the receiver scheme.

UWB(Ultra Wide Band) under standardization for WPAN has a restriction in transmitting power because of interference with existing systems. To overcome the restriction, in this paper, we construct the MIMO(Multi-input-Multi-Output) channel using multi-transmit/receiver antennas and analyze the performance of the proposed system. In addition, through numerical simulation, we obtain the interference property among these antennas and analyze the effect of an interference to the system. The proposed UWB system has a ML detector and the least square method will be used to cancel the multi-user interference and the inter symbol interference caused by multipath.

In this paper, we analyze the preamble model for Wireless PAN(WPAN) in proposed Ultra WideBand(UWB) Multi-Band OFDM(MB-OFDM) system of IEEE 802.15.3a standard. Besides, we propose effective Carrier Frequency Offset and Symbol Timing Offset Estimation algorithm which offers enhanced performance, and analyze its performance using Detection Probability, False Alarm Probability, Missing Probability, Mean Acquisition Time and MSE(Mean Square Error) through simulation in AWGN and UWB channel environments.

Ultra wide band (UWB) technology will be applied in the high rare wireless personal area networks (WPANs) for its high rate, low power, and innate immunity to multipath fading. In this paper, a power aware multi-hop packet relay MAC protocol in UWB based WPANs is proposed and a power aware path status factor (PAPSF), which is derived from SINR and power resource condition of each device, is used to select a suitable relay node. Compared with relaying by piconet coordinator (PNC), which is easily chosen by other ad hoc routing protocol, the new scheme can achieve hi임or throughput, decrease the time required for transmitting high power signal and we can easily distribute the battery power consumption from PNC to other devices in the piconet to prevent the PNC device using up its battery too fast and finally avoid PNC handover too frequently.

The demand of wireless communication system is increasing due to the development of computers and other digital media appliances. In particular, new wireless communication technology is necessary for implementation of home network since a lot of data transmission is occurred. Recently, two wireless communication technologies, Ultra Wide Band(UWB) and 60GHz band wireless communication technology, have being developed for high-speed data transmission and Wireless Personal Area Network(WPAN). In this paper, we study the present development condition of these two technologies and a role of them in home network. We also suggest the method to implement the home network using all wireless communication technologies. At the end, we outlook the market of WPAN and High Definition Multimedia Interface(HDMI).

The rapid proliferation of in-home and office information applications and services is driving the need for new wireless technologies enabling wideband short range multimedia communications. Due to the growing demand for higher quality media and faster wireless connections, several IEEE standardization groups are considering very high data rate alternatives physical layer(s) for Wireless Personal Area Network (WPAN). The Ultra Wide Band (UWB) multiple access technology based on very narrow pulse transmission, is one viable candidate for these applications providing very high bit rates services, low power consumption and accurate positioning capability. In this paper we provide a methodology to evaluate the UWB system BER performance in UWB wireless fading networks with power controlled UWB devices are considered. Results can be used to analyze the performance of a given network topology and to provide useful design ideas for an UWB home sensor network.
