NAME

DESCRIPTION

9       Ultra-WideBand (UWB) radio technology supports high bandwidth for wire‐
10       less devices. UWBA is a miscellaneous module and it supports radio con‐
11       troller  drivers  for  UWB  based devices like HWA (Host Wire Adapter),
12       WHCI (Wireless Host Controller Interface) and so  forth.  For  example,
13       both  HWA  radio  controller driver (hwarc) and whci driver register to
14       uwba during attach.

17       UWBA provides a series of common interfaces for  drivers  that  support
18       UWB radio technology. Each radio controller driver register itself as a
19       UWB dev to the uwba model in the attach entry,  then  other  driver  or
20       module  can  control this device to perform the UWB functions through a
21       list of common interface. For example, a hwahc driver can  control  the
22       hwarc  driver  to scan in a specific channel, start/stop beacon, manage
23       device/MAC address, and so forth.
