New analysis from Frost & Sullivan (www.semiconductors.frost.com) suggests that the market for UWB chipsets, which had nil shipments in 2005, will generate revenues of $950 million in 2009. According to industry manager Deepa Doraiswamy, “With target data rates of up to 500 Mbits/s, UWB is being targeted at wireless personal area networks (WPANs), audio/video distribution within the home, as well as a cable replacement option for USB and FireWire. It is likely to initially find use in consumer applications within the home, with several companies already using the technology to develop applications allowing streaming of DVD-quality video content around the house.”
