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。无线电研究对无线通信产生了影响，新的频谱友好无线电必须低成本、低功耗，并符合超宽带(UWB)无线电法规。所提出的MIR无线电具有灵活性和适应性，适用于使用集成电路以低成本芯片格式实现的UWB。MIR研究分为第一阶段和第二阶段，共同的目标是获得工业原型所需的知识。商业组件在第一阶段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，使用内部集成电路(MHMIC)来制造MIR，以获得设计和制造工业MIR无线电原型所需的知识。MIR无线电将提供消费者/商业/军用多用户市场中的短距离/高数据速率通信。MIR硬件和软件基于申请人在IEEE上发表的1995年的论文《直接在毫米波频率下操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者赢得了2004年麦克诺顿奖章，这是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)发布了类似的六端口接收器出版物。然而，由于1995年IEEE文件的优先权，申请者的六端口解调概念仍然是公共领域。目前的MIR计划在1995年的出版物中增加了新的重要元素：1)新的宽带多(6)端口调制器电路，2)新的宽带数字调制方案和3)操作软件。来自和平研究所研究的知识将导致低成本无线电芯片和软件在笔记本电脑或个人电脑上运行。这一新知识将增加加拿大在UWB无线电方面的经验。预计MIR将在成本、功耗和尺寸方面超过其他UWB无线电，以便以高数据速率在短距离内执行基本的无线无线电功能(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)。
