I feel moved to do a shameless plug....

5 years ago, we were pushing at VCs, a new home wireless approach we
called the Home Digital Backbone.  A wireless infrastructure
capturing all the benefits of Sub-band Division Multiplexing (SDM).
Much too complicated to go into detail.  The VCs told us back then
we were too far ahead of our time, no market yet.

UWB is a cute one-legged spark gap with no flexibility. I haven't
looked closely at WiMedia, but it quickly sounds like an abusive
waste of spectrum.  Why is the industry pushing such utterly
inflexible approaches?

If anyone is interested in knowing more about a home wireless
infrastructure that supports the width and breadth of consumer
products, with scaling on capacity and cost, with both digital
and passive SAW solutions on one architecture going from kilobits
to gigabits, from grid to batteries, feel free to visit our
website.  Or, ask me for more  information about the home digital
backbone.

K.I.S.S.
