Introduction to UWB Technology
UWB technology utilizes short-duration pulses at ultra-low power. It employs signals with low power (less than -41.3 dBm/MHz) and a wide bandwidth (greater than 500 MHz), making it ideal for short-range wireless communication, location tracking, and secured connections due to its noise-like characteristics.
There are three bands used in UWB networks, ranging from 3.1 GHz to 10.6 GHz.
UWB Network
The figure above depicts a typical UWB network comprised of UWB anchors and UWB tags attached to various items or objects. Mobile phones and smartphones are also available with embedded UWB chips. Anchors and tags communicate with each other to determine the distance between them and their respective locations (i.e., XYZ position).
