|b hat will be the "next big thing" following spread \ spectrum comm? My best guess is that it just might \ involve much of the incredible new stuff coming down \ in\274 |c Pulse Radio |d We have seen a number of times before how important it is \ to relate time and frequency in nearly all of advanced electronics. \ Seems there was this |2Fourier|1 dude who said that any time \ or pulse waveform can be made up from bunches of \ carefully selected sinewaves correctly added together. For \ instance, a repeating square wave can be built by taking \ a sine plus a third its third harmonic plus one \ fifth its fifth harmonic, and so on. We saw a plot of \ this way on back in |/surl |4MUSE90.PDF|1|/muse90 . Let us try this again in figure one. Only this time, I'm \ going to take ten sinewave harmonics and carefully \ |2weigh|1 each harmonic to stronger than unusual values. \ I'll then add them together. We \ get a fairly nice narrow pulse as our output. The \ PostScript code which lets you explore this by yourself \ appears in |/surl |4MUSE135.PSL|1|/muse135 What happens here is that all the sinewaves "pile up" or \ time |2correlate|1 on their pulse peak but pretty much \ cancel out otherwise. Yeah, this pattern repeats. There are lots of other \ pulses "hidden" off the graph. But we could keep adding \ lower and lower frequency sinewaves to spread the \ repetitions further and further out in time. And, yeah, \ that pulse baseline should be shifted on down \ from zero because the positive energy of a pile of \ sinewaves has to equal their negative energy on a long \ term average. But we can get rid of most of this shifting, \ again by adding enough subharmonics. Thus, |/tinton1 |2a single pulse can be built |/tinton1 from a large enough \ pile of carefully |/tinton1 arranged sinewaves|1. This is a very simple example of a |2spread spectrum|1 \ scheme. Note that energy is \ transmitted |2simultaneously|1 at ten |2different|1 \ frequencies to build the pulse. Similarly, if we \ have this pulse, its energy will be spread out \ over ten different frequencies. You could think of this pulse as having ten separate \ transmitters, each on its own frequency channel. Should \ there be any multipath or interference problems on a \ channel or two, all the others should fill in as needed. Figure two shows us a very useful \ single shape known as a |2Gaussian|1 pulse. Instead of \ being built up from a few locked harmonics, a \ Gaussian pulse has energy components of \ |2all possible frequencies|1. As you can see, a one \ nanosecond pulse width uses frequencies that mostly lie \ below one GigaHertz. One nanosecond is a nice size, \ since it also equals one foot of radar resolution. Very nicely, a Gaussian pulse can be produced in an \ antenna and then transmitted by suddenly changing an \ antenna's current. We see that Gaussian pulses have an extremely spread \ spectrum. Now, |2if|1 we can find some way to suddenly \ switch Ampere sized or larger signals into a special antenna \ and |2if|1 we can find some way to build up physically \ small ultra broadband antennas with decent lf radiation \ resistance, and |2if|1 we can find some elegant means to \ move repeating pulses around, then all sorts of exciting \ things happen. And that is pretty much what pulse radio is all about. Using pulse radio, you send out a bunch of Gaussian \ pulses that repeat in a usefully coded sequence. Either \ to |2radio|1 communicate by sending out digitized \ info or to |2radar|1 measure a distance by \ evaluating path times. Which just might give us several really big advantages\274 |h|z |/tinton1 |6no tuning components|j\261|/tintoff |1Because the system is \ so broadband, there are no resonant or tuning components. \ Nor any adjustments. Most parts can get integrated onto a single chip. |h |/tinton1 |6effective frequency use|j\261|/tintoff |1the data or signal rates can \ go up to |470%|1 or more of the bandwidth. This is far \ higher than normal. |h |/tinton1 |6lower costs|j\261|/tintoff |1silicon can replace \ fancy semiconductors because of the lower system \ frequencies involved. |h |/tinton1 |6no multipath|j\261|1|/tintoff Because the energy is splattered \ across the entire spectrum, multipath signal problems \ virtually disappear. |h |/tinton1 |6better penetration\261|1|/tintoff Pulse radio does seem \ remarkably adept at going into buidings, through trees, \ and even can do limited ground penetration. |h |/tinton1 |6highly secure\261|1|/tintoff It seems exceptionally difficult for \ a third party to intercept pulse radio comm when they do \ not know the spreading codes. |h |/tinton1 |6interference resistant\261|1|/tintoff Jamming an ultra broad \ band signal is very hard to do if you are using anything this side \ of a raw spark gap. |h |/tinton1 |6high resolution\261|1|/tintoff Distances can now be measured to \ surprising accuracy for a given cost and \ bandwidth. Very precise clocks are not \ needed. |h |/tinton1 |6high channel capacity\261|1|/tintoff Hundreds or even thousands \ of users can share the same region interference free, \ when codes are properly selected. |h |/tinton1 |6long range\261|1|/tintoff Up to several miles are possible at \ milliwatt power levels. |h |/tinton1 |6micropower\261|1|/tintoff Most transmitters and receivers \ should need far less power. Besides being smaller and cheaper \ than conventional circuits. |h|p Actually, pairs of pulses known as |2impulse doublets|1 or \ |2monocycles|1 are usually transmitted by connecting an \ |4"H"|1 bridge to its broadband current mode \ antenna. A logic one gets sent positive pulse first; a \ logic zero gets sent with negative polarity first. The \ positioning of the individual pulses sets up an \ elaborate pseudorandom code with strong self-correlation \ and very low cross-correlation properties. Different codes \ let hundreds or even thousands of \ transmissions in any area that will not interfere. A simplified block diagram of one possible pulse radio \ setup appears in figure three. The transmitter is just \ an H-Bridge driver, usually built up from |4CMOS|1. Suddenly \ flip switches |2a|1 and |2d|1, and a positive Gaussian pulse will get \ output from the |2current mode|1 antenna. When you turn |2b|1 and |2c|1 \ on, a negative Gaussian pulse gets output. Between \ pulses, the antenna current is given a return path by \ turning |2a|1 and |2b|1 on. Or else |2c|1 and |2d|1. The receiver consists of an antenna and a broadband \ amplifier. A local |2phase lock loop|1 or a similar \ circuit keeps track of your expected arriving ones and \ zeros. An attempt is made to match what you really get \ against what is expected using a |2correlation|1 \ technique. Finally, the received data either gets passed \ on as data (for a modem) or is converted to a distance \ measurement (for a radar). We saw more on correlation back in |/surl |4HACK54.PDF|1|/hack54 Figure four shows some resource websites and papers that \ should get you started exploring pulse radio.

More details on this text at \ |/surl |2www.tinaja.com/amlink01.html|1|/amlink01 |c What Good Is It? |d Well, modems for openers. Data comm inside of buildings has \ fewer multipath and interface problems. Outside, you get \ longer distances on lower power. Comm is more \ secure, since it is insanely harder to detect by a third \ party. And Internet |4ISP|1's can hang a pulse radio on \ every tree. Giving you fast, "always connected" net \ access. And saving them lots of phone \ bills. Vehicular safety radars. In front for thruway "safe \ distance" driving, on the sides as a parking aide, and \ in the back as a garage wall alarm. The really big deal in computer animation these days is \ called |2motion capture|1. Where a dancer or actor has \ enough sensors on them that their avatar alter ego can \ realistically track them. In real time. Things get \ sticky fast when you have a room full of actors or need \ enough sensors that are cheap enough for faithful joint \ renditions. Pulse radio is poised to dramatically lower \ the costs here. Prisons are an obvious use, where the location of each \ inmate can get continuously monitored. The same goes for \ firemen. Or soldiers on a battlefield where each \ has their own |4IFF|1 (Identification Friend \ or Foe) capability. And by odious big brother \ extensions, if everybody had to wear one of these, \ all traditional crimes would surely decrease. Accurate distance measurements. Inventory control. \ Otherwise known as |5RFID|1 and an abbreviation for |2RF \ Identification Devices|1 Smart highways for vehicle \ nav. Pagers. Security and survelliance. Personal "body" networks. Where you link your worn \ pager, cellphone, |4GPS|1 receiver, calculator, \ wristwatch, |4EKG|1 monitor, tv set, internet module, \ email display, Furby, and a coffee grinder together. Pulse radio offers strong ground penetration properties, \ given suitable antenna coupling and careful design. This \ leads to all sorts of apps from measuring the thickness \ of a glacier; finding the condition of buried steel in a \ bridge; doing archaeological mapping, utility pipe finding, or land mine \ recovery; and even treasure hunting. I'm especially \ fascinated by the possibility of applying lower \ frequency "holographic" arrays of pulse radio to cave \ exploration. Does pulse radio take us back to the time of spark gaps? \ Where the loudest signal will always win? Not really, because \ most impulse radio apps will usually be micropower \ and have strictly limited ranges. But too many impulse \ radio systems in too small an area clearly will raise the \ background noise level for all other comm schemes. And a wimpy \ nearby signal clearly might trash a distant strong one. This \ one is called the |2near-far|1 problem. There's a side effect to pulse radio that raises serious \ |4SETI|1 exploration questions. We are just beginning to \ learn that efficient communication is real hard to tell \ from low levels of noise. Supposedly smart \ civilizations probably have stopped \ blasting narrow spectrum radio power into space. Two \ predictions: |4(a)|1 today's |4SETI|1 searches, while \ admirable, are looking for the wrong signals in the \ wrong way in the wrong places; and |4(b)|1 an extremely \ small but horribly significant portion of what seems \ to be eltragalactic noise is in fact intelligent \ communications. This one may take a while to sort out completely. |c Brain Parity |d A few years back, I made the big prediction that we'd have human \ brain capable computers right about now. Yeah, these \ aren't a loss leader at |2Wal-Mart|1 quite yet. The \ unused "between keystokes" capacity of the web on an \ average day certainly is a lot larger than humnan brain \ size. And lots of other examples can be found of \ specialized computing systems that do go way beyond human \ abilities. There's a new "must read" book titled |/surl |2The Age of \ Spiritual Machines|1|/spirit by Ray Kurzwell. He convincingly \ predicts |4$1000|1 brain parity machines in less than \ two decades. And better machines that routinely will offer |41000X|1 human \ capability in three or less. Kurzwell is rather big on neural nets, since this is his \ bag. My own feelings are that other non-neural architectures \ should be able do much more much better. The reason \ being that neural nets came about under severe \ engineering restraints. Being wetware, slow, and \ chemical. And, above all, by being forced to evolve \ gradually. A foremost engineering rule is that |/tinton1 |2whenever \ you excessively |/tinton1 constrain any parameter, \ something |/tinton1 else \ has got to give|1. Nonetheless, neural nets certainly should be \ explored, and developed. Kurzwell's book and his \ references are a superbly good starting point. He also \ addresses brain |4I/O|1 and all the incredible potential of \ being able to real time read and write to individual \ live human neurons. Some of which hints at \ immortality. There is definitely a buck to be made here. After all, \ most any used car salesman would gladly pay |4$19.95|1 \ for a remote control that has three buttons on it. Marked \ |4ENTER LOT|1, |4BUY|1 and |4GO AWAY|1. And the |5BMW|1 \ dealers might even spring extra for the |4$29.95|1 lilac \ scented and rosewood inlaid version.

Thanks both to |2Acrobat|1 and \ duplexing PostScript laser printers, you can easily \ publish all your own books at very low cost. One at a time. \ On a when and as needed basis. But a lower cost binding \ solution remains a elusive dream. I have personally still been using |2Unibind|1 and \ |2Pentabind|1 products, but sorely would like to use something \ better. The latest of |2Unibind|1 thermal binders \ have a steel |4"U"|1 shaped strip in them. The good \ news is that the backs always end up solid, wrinkle \ free, and square. The bad news is that you'll have to \ carefully match pages and paper thicknesses. \ Worse yet, you cannot trim these binders \ using an ordinary paper shear. Chet Novicki has just published |2Perfect Binding \ Handbook \261 Making Trade Paperbacks by Hand|1 Chet \ found that ordinary hardware store flexible contact \ cement does make a dandy bookbinding glue. He also has come \ up with some clamps and a simple process that lets you \ bind books that look just like the ones in the \ bookstore. A |45-1/2|1 by |48-1/2|1 cover is often the easiest, usually \ using some heavier coated stock. The trick is to start with \ a legal sized cover stock, leaving all of the scrap on \ the front end of the book. A simple trimming solves the \ dilemma of needing a spine width over and above the size \ of a regular folded page. Besides Chet, the |2Paper Plus|1 chain is one great \ place to get materials. There's also over a dozen direct \ mail paper outfits who also sell in small quantities. We \ looked at many of these back in |/surl |4RESBN66.PDF|1|/resbn66 and \ in |/surl |2www.tinaja.com/bod01.html|1|/bod01 Chet can be reached through his |/surl |2www.gigabooks.com|1|/gigabooks Besides \ binding books, he also sells low cost binding machines, \ materials, supplies, and his consulting services.

Who discovered \ fundamental quantum mechanics. In all his spare time, he built the atom bomb, \ made physics understandable to legions of students, \ solved the Challenger space accident, cracked safes, \ infuriated all security personnel, while he expertly played bongo drums. I've gathered a few of the better books in the nearby listing. |c New Tech Lit |d From |2Analog Devices|1, the |2Winter |51999|2 Short Form \ Catalog|1. And by |2Texas Instruments|1, a |2Convert \ Analog|1 |4CDROM|1 about analog-to-digital and \ digital-to-analog conversions. From |2International \ Rectifier|1, a new data book on power semiconductors. \ From |2Linear Technology|1, |4Design Note |4161|1 \ on "smart rock" micropower transponders. And from \ |2Allegro Microsystems|1, their free |4CD ROM|1 \ dataguide on chips, sensors, and power \ drivers. The |2MemScap |5MEMS|1 Universe|1 is a freebie new data \ |4CD|1. Subtitled |2The Power of a Small World|1, this \ one is on microminiature nanotechnology. Stuff like \ micro mirrors, resonators, comb fingers, electrostatic \ motors, tiny inductors, and even unbelievably small \ hinges.
