New radio technology is hastening the development of impulse radios such as MIR, Smart radios, Software Defined Radios (SDR) and Cognitive radios. Research in radio has an impact on wireless communications, and new spectral friendly radios must be low cost, low power consumption, and conform to Ultra Wideband (UWB) radio regulations. Proposed MIR radio is flexible and adaptable to UWB for implementation in low cost chip format using integrated circuits. MIR research is separated in  phase I and phase II with common aim to acquire needed knowledge for industrial prototype. Commercial components are assembled , in phase I, alongside a digital signal processor to test new multi (six-port) circuits and MIR radio software. In phase II, MIR is  fabricated with in-house integrated circuits (MHMICs) to obtain needed knowledge to design and fabricate an industrial MIR radio prototype. MIR radio will provide short range /high data rates communications found in consumer/ commercial / military multi-user markets.  MIR hardware and software are based on 1995 paper by applicant published in IEEE as "Computer and Measurement Simulation of a New Digital Receiver Operating Directly at Mm-Wave Frequencies". This first paper on direct digital six- port receiver won for applicant the 2004 McNaughton Medal, IEEE Canada's highest award. A similar six-port receiver publication was made, five years later, by an international core research laboratory (Sony). Nevertheless,the six-port demodulation concept of applicant remains in public domain due to priority 1995 IEEE paper. Present MIR project adds new important elements to 1995 publication: 1) a new wideband multi (six) port modulator circuit, 2) a new wide band digital modulation scheme and 3) operating software. Knowledge from MIR research will lead to low cost radio chips and software operated in a laptop or personal computers. This new knowledge will add to Canadian experience in UWB radio. MIR is expected to surpass other UWB radios in cost, power consumption and size to perform basic wireless radio functions (e.g. between computers in office or home) over short distances at high data rates. Similar MIR technology applies to radar (cars, helicopters , aircraft landing and item tagging).

新的无线电技术正在加速脉冲无线电的发展，如MIR、智能无线电、软件定义无线电（SDR）和认知无线电。无线电的研究对无线通信产生了重大影响，新的频谱友好型无线电必须是低成本、低功耗的，并且符合超宽带（UWB）无线电法规。所提出的MIR无线电具有灵活性，可适应超宽带，采用集成电路实现低成本芯片格式。MIR研究在第一阶段和第二阶段分开，共同的目标是获得工业原型所需的知识。在第一阶段，商业组件与数字信号处理器一起组装，以测试新的多（六端口）电路和MIR无线电软件。在第二阶段，用内部集成电路（mhmic）制造MIR，以获得设计和制造工业MIR无线电原型所需的知识。MIR无线电将在消费者/商业/军事多用户市场提供短距离/高数据速率通信。MIR硬件和软件基于申请人1995年在IEEE上发表的论文“直接在毫米波频率上工作的新型数字接收机的计算机和测量仿真”。这篇关于直接数字六端口接收器的第一篇论文为申请人赢得了2004年McNaughton奖章，IEEE加拿大的最高奖项。五年后，一家国际核心研究实验室（索尼）出版了类似的六端口接收器。尽管如此，申请人的六端口解调概念由于1995年IEEE论文的优先级而仍然处于公共领域。目前的MIR项目在1995年出版的基础上增加了新的重要元素：1)一种新的宽带多（六）端口调制电路，2)一种新的宽带数字调制方案和3)操作软件。从MIR研究中获得的知识将导致在笔记本电脑或个人电脑中操作的低成本无线电芯片和软件。这一新知识将增加加拿大在超宽带无线电方面的经验。MIR预计将在成本、功耗和尺寸上超过其他超宽带无线电，以高数据速率在短距离上执行基本无线无线电功能（例如在办公室或家庭的计算机之间）。类似的MIR技术也适用于雷达（汽车、直升机、飞机着陆和物品标记）。
