An ultrawideband transmitter, however, works like a tuning fork. Striking a tuning fork causes it to vibrate, sending out sound waves at a particular frequency. A semiconductor chip in an ultrawideband radio "hits" an antenna with carefully timed electrical pulses; the antenna responds by generating radio waves at every frequency possible.
