ultra-wideband (uwb) and next-generation ultra-wideband (ng-uwb)
ultra-wideband (uwb) is a pulse radio technology that uses low transmission power radio waves over a wide frequency spectrum. it is a short-range technology with applications such as:
- real-time location systems (rtls): identifying the precise position of an object within a short range
- secure access control: determining the proximity of a user’s device to a secure entrance
- asset tracking: finding and allocating objects
- smart home and iot: location-based services inside the home, such as smart home electronics control
- extended reality (xr): enhancing xr experience by enabling better spatial tracking and localization
uwb is now a mainstream technology, with widespread adoption in smartphones and other smart devices. the next-generation ultra-wideband (ng-uwb) seeks to:
- improve ranging performance
- increase data transfer capabilities
- introduce new coding schemes to improve link budget and coexistence
- enable standardized sensing capabilities
