UltraWide Band Alliance using UWB for Wireless Audio Transport
WATCH/LISTEN ON
Jackie Green, the Technical Advisor for the UltraWide Band Alliance joins to explain how the UWB wireless technology works and its advantages for use in audio products. UWB Alliance is a global organization collectively establishing UWB technology as an open-standards, interoperable industry with a global ecosystem.
Since 2019, UWB has been expanding into a mainstream consumer technology for smartphones, wearables, automotive, and industry, forecasted to drive sales volumes of over one billion devices annually by 2025.
Building upon the standardization work performed by our staff and members within the IEEE on the 802.15.4z, they are focused on providing a favorable regulatory and spectrum management landscape to maximize UWB growth. This includes securing new advantageous rulesets in the upcoming reviews in the USA and Europe to expand the use cases for UWB technology.
They are also heavily involved in optimizing spectrum sharing while minimizing interference. They evangelize coexistence for the expanding Wireless Multiverse and work with members and stakeholders to provide thought leadership on strategies to “make it all work together”.
