The document provides a history of the development of Universal Serial Bus (USB) technology. It describes the development of USB 1.0/1.1 in the 1990s to allow for increased bandwidth and simplified device connections. USB 2.0 was released in 2000 and increased speeds by 40 times. USB 3.0 was introduced in 2008 and increased speeds by nearly 10 times over USB 2.0 through the SuperSpeed protocol. Current devices using USB include external hard drives, cameras, and audio interfaces that benefit from the higher speeds of USB 3.0.

USB 3.0 is the third major version of the Universal Serial Bus (USB) standard for interfacing computers and electronic devices. Among other improvements, USB 3.0 adds the new transfer rate referred to as SuperSpeed USB (SS) that can transfer data at up to 5 Gbit/s (625 MB/s), which is about ten times as fast as the USB 2.0 standard.
International Journal of Engineering Research and Development is an international premier peer reviewed open access engineering and technology journal promoting the discovery, innovation, advancement and dissemination of basic and transitional knowledge in engineering, technology and related disciplines.
Wireless USB products are finally arriving at the market and in this article you will learn more about this technology and see some usage examples. The goals of wireless USB is to connect peripherals such as printers, externals hard disk drives, sound cards, media players and even video monitors to the PC wirelessly. This can be done by to forms.
If the PC and the device don’t have native support to WUSB, you must install a dongle to convert are standard USB ports in to WUSB.
The maximum theoretical transfer rate from WUSB in this same as USB 2.0:480mpbs if the device is within 3 meters from the PC or 110mpbs from the PC. As you can see, the more distant the devices are from the PC, lower is the transfer rate.
Bluetooth is another wireless technology that allows the connection between the PC and peripherals without wires. At this time, however, Bluetooth is targeted to low speed devices only, as its maximum transfer rate is of 1 Mpbs (128 kb\s) or 3Mpbs (384MB\s), depending on the Bluetooth generation.
The next Bluetooth generation is scheduled to have the same transfer rate as WUSB, but this technology is not yet available. Wireless USB works on the UWB frequency range, while Bluetooth technology works on 2.4GHz frequency, the same use by IEEE 802.11 wireless network.

3. Brief History of USB
In 1994 development began on an idea to make it
simpler to connect external devices to personal
computers (PC). The idea was collaborated with
seven companies: Compaq, DEC, IBM, Intel,
Microsoft, NEC and Nortel. These seven
companies together developed the first Universal
Serial Bus (USB) specification. This specification
allowed an increase in bandwidth for external
devices and simplified software configurations of all
devices.
4. History of USB 1.0 / 1.1
USB 1.0 was first introduced to the public in
January 1996. It was the first iteration of the
USB protocol and it operated at a rate of 12
Mbit/s. After 2 years USB 1.0 standard was
revised to USB 1.1. This update introduced
varied data rates and allowed higher speed
devices to receive the full 12 Mbit/s while slower
devices used a lower 1.5 Mbit/s rate.
5. History of USB 2.0
For roughly three years USB 1.0 was one of the
few choices for connecting external devices to
PCs. In the year 2000 a group of companies
banded together to improve USB 1.1. Hewlett-
Packard, Intel, Lucent Technologies, NEC and
Philips which formed the USB Implementers’
Forum or USB-IF, worked together to bring a
new standardization into light. The new USB
was called USB 2.0 and with its new standard
transfer rate of 480 Mbit/s, the speed increased
40 times over USB 1.1.
6. History of USB 3.0
USB 2.0 continued on for seven years when in
2008 the USB-IF released the latest iteration of
the USB standard; USB 3.0. SuperSpeed or
USB 3.0 has a nearly ten times increase in data
rate over USB 2.0, 4.8Gbit/s versus 480Mbit/s.
USB 3.0 is currently being implemented into
some of the newest products offered today.

USB 2.0 continued on for seven years when in 2008 the USB-IF released the latest iteration of the USB standard; USB 3.0. SuperSpeed or USB 3.0 has a nearly ten times increase in data rate over USB 2.0, 4.8Gbit/s versus 480Mbit/s. USB 3.0 is currently being implemented into some of the newest products offered today.
Here are some examples of different devices that utilize the USB interface for transferring data and recharging certain devices. Digital cameras, computer mice, cell phones, speakers, web cameras, MP3 players, external hard drives, keyboards, digital camcorders, and jump drives are just some of the many uses for the USB interface.
Just as the jump from USB 1.1 to 2.0 was significant, so has the change from 2.0 to 3.0. This comparison showcases the benefits of USB 3.0 versus 2.0. USB 3.0 is about ten times faster then USB 2.0; 4.8Gbit/s and 480Mbit/s respectively. USB 3.0 offers a different style of data transfers by using full-duplex transfers instead of USB 2.0’s half-duplex data transfers. The following slides will explain both full and half duplex. USB 3.0 offers new power management features to increase the power available to external devices and decrease the power levels of devices during idle periods. One of the greatest features of USB 3.0 is that it is 100% backwards compatible with USB 2.0.
USB 3.0 standardization brought with it some great power management features. USB 3.0 is providing higher power allowances for today’s devices that are demanding an increase in power output. Power output has been increased for configured devices by nearly 80% compared to USB 2.0. This increase in power will allow for a wider range of USB powered devices such as large capacity high speed external hard drives, blu-ray players, and hd video cameras.
Some examples of different devices that would best utilize the increased data transfer rates as well as the increased power availability are external Blu-Ray players, external high capacity HDD drives, high mega pixel cameras, high definition video capture devices, Multi-channel Audio Interfaces, and High capacity Jump Drives (USB Storage Devices). These are just some of the many devices that can use USB 3.0 to its maximum potential.
