Wireless communications networks offer rapid installation and good mobility in return for relatively low data bandwidth. The present invention makes use of any additional data bandwidth by combining multiple data packets and transmitting them simultaneously on different communications channels to increase data bandwidth without requiring enlargement of the frequency band or complex data encoding schemes. This is accomplished via the use of multiple radiosandat a network adapterand at a base station

Wireless bandwidth aggregator

System and method for transparently attaching wireless peripherals to a computer using an UWB wireless network. A preferred embodiment comprises an interface (for example, interface), a communications bus (for example, a USB), and an UWB wireless network adapter (for example, an UWB transceiver). The interface translates messages from either the communications bus or the UWB wireless network adapter so that a software stack is not needed to perform the translation at a later time. This helps to maintain the computer's reliability and performance. The system and method also affords wireless connectivity without the presence of a computer system.

Ultra-wideband (UWB) transparent bridge

System and method for transparently attaching wireless peripherals to a computer using a Bluetooth wireless network. A preferred embodiment comprises an interface (for example, interface), a communications bus (for example, a USB), and a Bluetooth wireless network adapter (for example, a master unit). The interface translates messages from either the communications bus or the Bluetooth wireless network adapter so that a software stack is not needed to perform the translation at a later time. This helps to maintain the computer's reliability and performance. The system and method also affords wireless connectivity without the presence of a computer system.
