Abstract   |   Table of Contents

Wireless USB (WUSB), based on the WiMedia version of ultrawideband (UWB), is designed to take the universal connection into the wireless realm. Targeted at PCs, PC peripherals, consumer electronics (CE), and mobile phones, the first devices with the technology shipped in 2007, including notebook PCs and hub and dongle solutions. WUSB is currently hampered by the high price of the underlying UWB silicon. This is expected to limit its appeal until prices fall substantially from their current levels. Ultimately, WUSB should succeed because the underlying UWB technology allows the transmission of large amounts of data in a power efficient manner, when compared with competing technologies like Wi-Fi. This report tracks the global market for WUSB in 22 different applications within four product segments: PCs, PC peripherals, consumer electronics, and communications. Annual penetration of WUSB in each of these markets is tracked annually through 2012. An annual WUSB chip solution ASP forecast through 2012 is also provided. Brief profiles of WUSB semiconductor and IP vendors are also included.
