Description:
                Interfaces for WiMedia Ultra Wideband Common Radio
                Platform (UWB) radio controllers.

                Familiarity with the ECMA-368 'High Rate Ultra
                Wideband MAC and PHY Specification' is assumed.

KernelVersion:  2.6.27
Description:
                If no beacons are received from a device for at least
                this time, the device will be considered to have gone
                and it will be removed.  The default is 3 superframes
                (~197 ms) as required by the specification.

Description:
                Write:

                <channel>

                to force a specific channel to be used when beaconing,
                or, if <channel> is -1, to prohibit beaconing.  If
                <channel> is 0, then the default channel selection
                algorithm will be used.  Valid channels depends on the
                radio controller's supported band groups.

                Reading returns the currently active channel, or -1 if
                the radio controller is not beaconing.

Description:
                Write:

                <channel> <type> [<bpst offset>]

                to start (or stop) scanning on a channel.  <type> is one of:
                    0 - scan
                    1 - scan outside BP
                    2 - scan while inactive
                    3 - scanning disabled
                    4 - scan (with start time of <bpst offset>)

Description:
                The EUI-48, in colon-separated hex octets, for this
                radio controller.  A write will change the radio
                controller's EUI-48 but only do so while the device is
                not beaconing or scanning.

Description:
                Link Quality Estimate - the Signal to Noise Ratio
                (SNR) of all packets received from this device in dB.
                This gives an estimate on a suitable PHY rate. Refer
                to [ECMA-368] section 13.3 for more details.
