Distributed radio resource sharing with Ultra Wide Band radio

Ultra Wide Band technology is rapidly maturing for multiple access communication purposes. By referring to Impulse Radio realization and to the classic link analysis of multicode time-hopping UWB multiple access schemes we focus on distributed algorithms to share the radio resource capacity in an ad-hoc type of network, handling both best effort and QoS requesting traffic flows. A practical solution is shown to exist and a preliminary performance evaluation is presented, showing the benefit brought about by admission control rules.
