Self-organizing ultrawideband wireless sensor network

Abstract

In the report, self-organization in wireless ultrawideband sensor networks is considered as an approach aimed at solving two problems: establishment of links between network nodes and switching the network nodes into synchronous data transmission mode. An experimental UWB wireless sensor network with chaotic carrier on physical layer is described. This network belongs to the class of wireless personal area networks. It consists of short-range transceivers with radio links up to 30 m in free space, average emission power ∼0.1 mW and data rate up to 12 Mbps.
