Precise Positioning with Telocate Ultra-Wideband technology

Ultra-wideband (UWB) is a wireless technology used for high-precision positioning and data transmission. UWB systems send very short pulses over a wide frequency spectrum, allowing precise measurement of distance and position (< 10 cm). This technology is used in various areas such as automotive, healthcare, industrial automation and smart homes.

Advantages

      • High precision: UWB provides centimeter-level accuracy (<10 cm), ideal for applications requiring accurate location information.
      • Low Interference: Since UWB uses a wide frequency spectrum, interference from other wireless systems is minimal.
      • Energy Efficiency: UWB devices use less energy compared to other wireless technologies.
      • Safe: UWB offers high security because the signals are difficult to interfere with.

Telocate Ultra-wideband system

In industrial applications, our UWB system offers you precise information about where something is at all times. The scalable UWB system enables the exact localization of relevant assets in production and logistics through seamless real-time radio location based on ultra-wideband technology (UWB). For this purpose, all relevant objects in the factory or warehouse are equipped with a transponder (tags). Anchor nodes collect the transponder signals and transmit them to the higher-level Telocate server system. The positions of the objects are calculated there and forwarded to intelligent automation systems and production units.

      • Anchor nodes: Serve as fixed reference points for the local infrastructure and enable real-time positioning with centimeter precision. They record the signals from the transponders and provide them with a fixed position stamp. The real-time position data is collected and transmitted to the tracking server.

      • Transponders: Are attached to workpieces, robots, vehicles and other objects and send out a signal at defined intervals. They can also be equipped with interfaces to transmit location information directly to the local control and to supply higher-level systems.
