Embodiment Construction

[0034] Those of ordinary skill in the art will realize that the following description of the present invention is illustrative only and not in any way limiting. Other embodiments of the invention will readily suggest themselves to such skilled persons.

[0035] The present invention provides a Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) system and method that allows sharing a wireless medium which can identify and operate in a variable bit rate environment. The present invention provides a system and method capable of supporting devices with vastly different bandwidth requirements. Some devices, such as television receivers, require high bandwidth data communication. The higher cost associated with a television receiver allows for the design of a television having high data rate modulation techniques. Other devices such as home thermostats have lower bandwidth requirements and require simpler modulation techniques for lower cost connectivity.

[0036] The present invention operates within a ne...

Abstract

The present invention describes a network communication system which includes a first slave transceiver configured to communicate a plurality of TDMA data packets at different data rates to a second slave transceiver. The second slave transceiver is also configured to communicate a plurality of TDMA data packets at different data rates to the first slave transceiver. A master transceiver manages data communications between the first slave transceiver and the second slave transceiver. Each transceiver includes a data modulation unit, a transmitter, an antenna, and a receiver. The transmitter is coupled to the data modulation unit and the transmitter is configured to generate a pulse stream according to the data modulation unit. The receiver is configured to detect and demodulate said ultra wide band base band signals operating at variable pulse repetition frequencies and having different modulation methods.

Description

[0001] This application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. § 120 as a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 09 / 603,310, filed Jun. 21, 2000, entitled “Wireless TDMA System and Method for Network Communications.”FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0002] The present invention relates to wireless network communications. More particularly, the present invention relates to a Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) system and method. THE BACKGROUND ART [0003] Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) is well known in the art as a method of utilizing bandwidth across a shared medium. The basic principle of time division multiplexing is that it permits a user to have access to a TDMA system which operates at a rate which is several times greater that the rate required to support the user's own data throughput. [0004] Several common wireless protocols employ TDMA, such as the Global Mobile System (GSM), Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT), and Bluetooth. GSM is a European standard which ...
