A method for conveying application data via carrierless ultra wideband wireless
signals, and signals embodied in a carrierless ultra wideband waveform. Application
data is encoded into wavelets that are transmitted as a carrierless ultra wideband
waveform. The carrierless ultra wideband waveform is received by an antenna, and
the application data is decoded from the wavelets included in the waveform. The
waveforms of the signals include wavelets that have a predetermined shape that
is used to modulate the data. The signals may convey, for example, Web pages and
executable programs between mobile devices. The signals are low power and can penetrate
obstructions making them favorable for use with a wireless node of a network.
