Hi,
Glad to stumble your article.
ARRL Technical Relations Specialist Walt Ireland, WB7CSL, and International Amateur Radio Union's Peter Chadwick, G3RZP, are representing Amateur Radio at a meeting of the International Telecommunication Union Task Group 1/8 on Ultra-Wideband (UWB). The Boston gathering continues through June 18. Ireland says he and Chadwick are particularly interested in UWB compatibility issues, including aggregate noise levels from the operation of UWB devices. The meeting will include a demonstration of UWB equipment.
In February 2003 the FCC adopted final rules in the UWB proceeding, ET Docket 98-153, with technical standards and operational restrictions for UWB use in the US. The Boston meeting is aimed at establishing global UWB standards.
