What are the precautions for installing UWB positioning system?

Base station layout: Base stations should be reasonably arranged according to the shape, size, and occlusion of the positioning area. In open areas, the distance between base stations can be appropriately increased; In areas with many obstructions (such as metal shelves and thick walls), it is necessary to deploy encrypted base stations to ensure signal coverage and positioning accuracy. For example, in a factory workshop, if there are large metal equipment, the base station should be installed in a location that can avoid equipment obstruction and effectively cover the surrounding area with signals. Height and angle: It is generally recommended to install the base station at a height of 2-5 meters to ensure that the signal can cover the positioning space well, while avoiding being too low and obstructed by objects, or too high and causing complex signal reflection. The installation angle should enable the base station to receive tag signals within the maximum range, usually vertically downwards or adjusted according to the actual scene. Cable connection and power supply: Ensure a secure cable connection between the base station and equipment such as switches, follow cable laying specifications, and avoid signal interference. For PoE (Power over Ethernet) base stations, it is necessary to ensure that the switch supports PoE functionality and that the power meets the requirements of the base station; Non PoE base stations require stable DC power supply, with voltage and current in accordance with equipment specifications. Tag installation: When installing tags on the located object, it is necessary to ensure that the direction of tag signal transmission is not severely obstructed. If personnel wear tags, they should be worn in a conspicuous and unobstructed area of the body without excessive obstruction such as clothing; The installation position of tags on the device should consider the posture of the device during operation to ensure that the tags can always communicate normally with the base station.

How to debug UWB positioning system for optimal performance?

Initial parameter setting: Through system configuration software, set parameters such as base station ID, channel, and transmission power to ensure that the parameters of each base station are coordinated and consistent, and meet the requirements of actual application scenarios. For example, in multi story buildings, base stations on different floors can set up different channels to reduce signal interference between floors. Calibration and Calibration: The system is calibrated using calibration points at known positions. By measuring the deviation between the actual and theoretical positions of the labels at these calibration points, system parameters are adjusted to improve positioning accuracy. Specialized calibration tools or software can be used to perform multiple calibrations according to the operating steps until the accuracy meets the requirements. Signal strength and coverage testing: Use signal testing tools to detect the signal strength of base stations at different locations within the positioning area and draw a signal strength distribution map. For areas with weak or no signal, analyze the reasons and adjust parameters such as base station location, angle, or power to enhance signal coverage. Positioning accuracy test: Arrange multiple test points in the positioning area, move the labels at these points, and observe the positioning results displayed by the system and the actual position error. If the error exceeds expectations, check the layout, parameter settings, algorithms, and other aspects of the base station for targeted optimization. Adjust the weighting coefficients of the positioning algorithm to balance the impact of different ranging methods on the positioning results. System stability testing: Keep the positioning system running for a period of time and observe whether there are any abnormal situations such as packet loss or positioning interruption. If there are stability issues, investigate the reasons for network connection, device cooling, software compatibility, etc., and take measures such as replacing network devices, improving cooling conditions, and updating software versions to solve them.

What challenges does UWB positioning face in complex environments such as multipath interference and signal occlusion?

Multipath interference: In complex indoor environments, UWB signals can reflect off walls, floors, object surfaces, etc., causing the receiving end to receive signals from multiple different paths. These multipath signals have different arrival times and phases, which can interfere with each other, distort the signal waveform, and affect the ranging accuracy based on signal time of arrival (ToF) or time difference of arrival (TDOA), thereby reducing the positioning accuracy. For example, in large warehouses, metal shelves will strongly reflect UWB signals, increasing the degree of multipath interference. Signal obstruction: Although UWB signals have a certain degree of penetration ability, when encountering thick walls, metal obstacles, etc., the signal strength will significantly weaken or even be completely obstructed. When there is obstruction between the tag and the base station, it may cause signal loss or distance measurement errors, resulting in positioning deviation or inability to locate. In areas such as operating rooms and intensive care units in hospitals, a large number of metal medical equipment and shielded doors can obstruct UWB signals. Non line of sight propagation (NLOS): When there are obstacles in the signal propagation path that prevent the signal from propagating in a straight line to the receiving end, but instead propagate through reflection, diffraction, and other means, NLOS propagation occurs. NLOS propagation can cause the measured signal propagation time to be longer than the actual line of sight propagation time, resulting in ranging errors and affecting positioning accuracy. In underground parking lots, vehicles, pillars, etc. can cause NLOS propagation of UWB signals.

How to deal with the challenges of UWB positioning in complex environments?

Multipath interference response strategy: Adopting multipath suppression algorithms, such as RAKE receiver technology, it can separate signals from different paths and perform weighted merging to enhance useful signals and suppress interference signals. Optimize the layout of base stations, reasonably set the position and angle of base stations, reduce the overlap of signal reflection paths, and reduce the impact of multipath interference. Using UWB antennas with stronger anti multipath capabilities, such as directional antennas, can reduce the reception of reflected signals from non target directions. Signal occlusion response strategy: Increase the number of base stations and ensure through redundant deployment that tags can still communicate with other unobstructed base stations even in the presence of occlusion. Using repeaters or signal amplifiers to enhance signal strength in areas prone to signal obstruction, ensuring effective signal transmission. For unavoidable strong obstructions such as metal, one can try changing their installation position or wrapping them with signal shielding materials to reduce interference with surrounding signals. Non line of sight propagation response strategy: Use NLOS recognition algorithm to analyze signal characteristics (such as signal strength changes, arrival time fluctuations, etc.) to determine whether NLOS propagation exists, and correct the ranging results. Combined with other positioning technologies such as Inertial Navigation (INS), in NLOS situations, inertial sensor data is used to assist in positioning and compensate for the errors caused by NLOS in UWB positioning.

How to integrate UWB positioning and Bluetooth positioning?

Principle complementarity: UWB has high positioning accuracy, reaching centimeter level, but the deployment cost of base stations is high and the coverage range is relatively limited; Bluetooth positioning has low power consumption and low cost, suitable for large-scale low precision positioning. Integrating the two and utilizing UWB positioning in key areas that require high-precision positioning, such as assembly areas in factories and the vicinity of operating rooms in hospitals; In other areas with low precision requirements, Bluetooth positioning is used for coverage. For example, in large shopping malls, UWB is used internally to provide customers with precise navigation to product shelves, while in public passages and other areas, Bluetooth positioning is used to achieve rough tracking of customer locations. Hardware integration: Develop composite positioning tags and base station devices that integrate UWB and Bluetooth functions. Tags can send and receive UWB signals, as well as communicate with Bluetooth beacons; The base station can also support the processing of UWB and Bluetooth signals simultaneously. This can reduce the number of devices, lower deployment complexity and costs. Data fusion algorithm: Processing UWB and Bluetooth positioning data through fusion algorithms. For example, when the UWB signal is good, the UWB positioning result is mainly used; When UWB signals are severely obstructed or interfered with, switch to Bluetooth positioning results, and use algorithms such as Kalman filtering to smooth the data of both to ensure the continuity and stability of positioning.

How to integrate UWB positioning and inertial navigation?

Working mode switching: Inertial navigation system (INS) measures the acceleration and angular velocity of an object through accelerometers and gyroscopes, calculates the position and attitude changes of the object, but its errors accumulate over time. When the UWB signal is stable and can be effectively received, the accumulated error of INS is corrected in real time based on the UWB positioning result; When the UWB signal is lost (such as in areas with severe signal obstruction), it automatically switches to INS positioning, utilizing the short-term high-precision characteristics of INS to maintain the positioning function until the UWB signal is restored. For example, in underground mines, the positioning devices worn by miners use UWB positioning in open tunnels, and rely on INS to continue positioning when entering branch tunnels with poor signals. Data fusion optimization: Using algorithms such as Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) to fuse UWB and INS data. EKF can combine the high-precision positioning data of UWB with the continuous attitude and motion data of INS to comprehensively estimate the position, velocity, and attitude of objects, improving the accuracy and stability of positioning. Through fusion, even when the UWB signal is briefly interrupted, the current position can be predicted based on INS data and previous UWB data, making the positioning result smoother.

UWB Mine Personnel Positioning Scheme

What is UWB and its technological applications?

1、 Overview of UWB

Ultra Wide Band (UWB): a relative bandwidth exceeding 20% of the center frequency, or possessing an absolute bandwidth of over 500MHz. UWB usually refers to Impulse Radio Ultra Wideband (IR-UWB).

UWB is not a new thing. In its early days, it was mainly used for high-precision positioning for the B-end. Since Apple released the iPhone 11 in 2019, which supports UWB, applications for the C-end have attracted the attention of mobile phone manufacturers and car manufacturers.

Before 2004, IEEE 802.15.3a was dedicated to wireless high-speed data transmission within a 10 meter range based on UWB. In 2004, IEEE established the 802.15.4a working group to develop the UWB physical layer standard, shifting its focus to high-precision positioning. The FCC has allocated a total of 7.5GHz frequency band from 3.1-10.6GHz for UWB, but strictly limits the UWB radiation power to -14dBm.

The leader in the UWB positioning chip industry is Decawave. Relatively weak points have been accumulated in this area domestically, but there are also follow-up measures. There is also NXP's UWB chip for all scenarios, which Samsung uses. Apple uses its self-developed U1 chip. Decawave is currently the world's largest UWB positioning chip manufacturer. Decawave has a variety of products from chip development kits, and they are very cheap with low trial costs.

2、 UWB positioning technology

The basis of UWB positioning is ToF/ToA ranging. The simple TOF algorithm has a strict constraint: the sending and receiving devices must always be synchronized. This is a rather tricky problem, but a Double sided Two way Ranging algorithm cleverly avoids it. It not only utilizes the excellent characteristics of TOF ranging, but also greatly eliminates the synchronization problem of TOF, thus clearing the way for the practical application of TOF.

Another foundation of UWB positioning is the use of AOA and AOD angle measurement. At least two antennas are required, with a distance of d. When electromagnetic waves are emitted, the two antennas have an optical path difference. Those who have studied the principles of electromagnetic waves know that knowing the phase difference can determine the optical path difference, and knowing the distance between the optical path difference and the antenna can calculate the angle. Therefore, the angle can be obtained by measuring the phase difference between two waves. This is the principle of angle measurement.

The positioning principle through angle measurement is that the position of the terminal can be determined by knowing the positions of two or more base stations and adding the angles measured by AoA/AoD. The positioning principle through distance measurement is to calculate the distance from three or more base stations to the terminal based on ToF, in order to determine the location of the terminal. So, what if there is only one base station? We usually do it through antenna arrays.

The three-point ranging positioning is flawed because it requires TOF measurement and synchronization between the base station and the terminal. Therefore, the industry usually adopts another method called TDOA. By measuring the transmission delay difference between two different base stations and terminals for positioning, each base station corresponds to a hyperbola, and the intersection point of the hyperbola is the target point. Because the location of the base station is fixed, synchronization between base stations and between base stations and mobile terminals is much easier to achieve.

The above discussion mainly focuses on absolute positioning. Next, we will discuss the application of relative positioning technology. The principle of UWB relative positioning is that a device with two antennas measures the angle through AoA based on the arrival phase difference, and measures the distance through SS-TWR ranging based on ToF. By combining the relative distance and azimuth between two devices, the relative position of the two devices can be calculated. The advantage is that it is easy to deploy and does not require the deployment of additional base stations.

UWB's nanosecond narrow pulse and low duty cycle enable UWB to achieve centimeter level positioning accuracy, which is the advantage of UWB over all other non pulse communications in positioning. UWB naturally has higher security, and its use of measuring latency rather than signal strength can effectively prevent relay attacks.

Decawave has conducted a comparison of various positioning technologies. The comparison results show that UWB is superior to other technologies in terms of accuracy and reliability, and also has significant advantages in security, latency, scalability, and power consumption.

Compared to the emerging Bluetooth 5.1 positioning technology, I believe that UWB has five advantages:

1. UWB is more specialized in positioning. Bluetooth may also need to consider other functions, and from the perspective of positioning technology, there are too many redundant things. In this regard, UWB is superior.

2. Multipath effect. For example, in spatial applications such as rooms, if there are multiple signal reflections, it may be difficult to distinguish them. In this regard, UWB's short pulses and low duty cycle make reflection difficult to stack and can be accurately distinguished. In this regard, UWB wins.

3. Measurement principle. As can be seen from the previous text, UWB is more accurate.

4. Error. The square negative correlation of signal strength distance, Bluetooth ranging can only be called evaluation, not measurement. The assessment is far or near, but it cannot be clearly stated what point or how many meters it is. For example, assuming the angle measurement error is 5 degrees, if two devices are 10 meters apart, the positioning deviation is about 1.8m. However, if they are 50m apart, the positioning deviation may be as high as 8.87m. This is because after the angle is determined, a cone shape is formed, and the longer the cone shape, the larger the opening. I didn't draw here, can you imagine? In this regard, UWB has smaller errors.

5. Technological maturity. At present, UWB is more mature in terms of software and hardware than Bluetooth 5.1 positioning, at least we have seen UWB mature products now.

3、 UWB Data Transmission Technology

UWB high-speed data transmission mainly follows the 802.15.3 specification before 2004. Originally, Intel and Samsung were very active in building wireless personal area networks, but with the emergence of Wi Fi 5/6, the advantages are no longer significant. The standards were not established and the industry did not keep up, so it turned yellow.

Now, the evolving standard is UWB low-speed data transmission under the 802.15.4 specification, mainly serving precise positioning and secure communication. Its main evolution directions are precision, data rate, and security.

In terms of point-to-point secure transmission, UWB has a wider sensing range, higher transmission speed, and stronger resistance to relay attacks compared to NFC. Compared to Wi Fi, UWB is more suitable for low-speed, dense terminal data transmission in harsh environments. We are not saying that UWB should replace NFC, but based on its precise distance measurement, UWB can fully exist as an auxiliary mode of NFC to improve user interaction experience.

In addition, in terms of high-speed data transmission, the current focus is mainly on higher frequency spectra and more complex modulation methods, and pulse UWB is not under consideration.

4、 This Life: UWB Application Scenarios

With the enabling of UWB by mobile devices, the application scenarios of UWB have gradually evolved from interaction between tags and fixed base stations to interaction between mobile devices and fixed base stations/mobile devices based on relative positioning.

Smart access control. The key to security lies in proving that both the person and the credential are present. Proving that 'people are here' is as important as proof. The industry often combines multiple technologies together, such as using Bluetooth for device discovery, UWB for precise positioning, and NFC as a backup entry method when the phone runs out of battery. UWB is an auxiliary method, traditional methods should continue to exist!

Location services. There are traditional positioning methods, but UWB positioning can also be used for lens tracking and in nearby pairing scenarios. For example, pairing headphones with a computer, when a phone call comes and you bring your phone over, the headphones automatically pair with your phone, and so on.

Accurate offline search for people and things. This is a complete solution. Simply put, even if the phone is not connected to the internet, it can obtain a rough GPS location through a third-party phone. Then, combined with AR, the device's precise location can be obtained through UWB. For example, Apple's AirTag.

New interactive methods. After sliding on the screen, the directional interaction mode with the device in the direction of the trajectory is also similar.

Interactive games. For example, two people can each use a slider to hit a moving ball onto the screen of another device, or engage in multiplayer AR battles or reposition multi screen interactions.

Currently, major terminal manufacturers have started to partially apply UWB technology. The main scenarios include contactless digital keys, directional interaction, and searching for people and things. For mobile phone companies, UWB may become a standard configuration in the future, just like Bluetooth and GPS.

5、 Future: Reflection and Summary

Finally, some thoughts on the prospects of UWB relative positioning. We know that almost all smartphones support Bluetooth and Wi Fi, but NFC is not. UWB requires deployment at least on the same scale as NFC. In addition, there needs to be a killer application.

The viewpoints of this article can be summarized into the following four points, and we welcome everyone to refer to and discuss them together:

(1) UWB relative positioning is a key application point of UWB technology;

(2) If the positioning requirements are reliability, stability, accuracy, and reproducibility, UWB has more advantages than Bluetooth 5.1;

(3) UWB low-speed data transmission instead of high-speed data transmission;

(4) UWB still has a long way to go, at least requiring deployment on the same scale as NFC. In addition, there needs to be a killer application.

Difficulties in UWB positioning applications

1、 After voice and video, location will be the third most important data. As a fundamental attribute of all things, location sensing technology will be greatly developed in the future. Technologies such as video location sensing, radar ranging, UWB ranging, etc. all belong to location sensing. Among them, UWB, due to its unique technology and high-frequency high pulse communication, has become a hot topic of public research, especially after the 2022 epidemic. The demand for real-time notification and tracing of personnel location through lockdown, flow control, and investigation has added more humanistic care to technology compared to simple and crude means such as location codes.

UWB can accurately obtain the signal arrival time, and through TOF precise ranging, it has small errors and high accuracy. Of course, the cost is sacrificing bandwidth and communication efficiency, as high-frequency data transmission does not support high bandwidth.

2、 At present, in the application environment, except for a few one-dimensional scenarios such as mine tunnels/tunnels, most of them use the triangulation positioning method (TDOA) for two-dimensional and three-dimensional positioning. However, this method has several troublesome points:

1. Each location that needs to be located must have at least 3 visible base station signal coverage. The entire positioning area achieves seamless coverage within line of sight. Both in terms of the layout of base stations and the utilization efficiency of base stations, it is quite uneconomical.

2. Timing synchronization of base stations. The difficulty and cost of wiring construction should be considered when using wired methods; When using wireless methods, issues such as synchronization frequency and packet loss need to be considered. Not to mention the complexity and economy of the operation, in complex on-site situations, it may even be an impossible task to complete.

3. Every scene needs to be accurately surveyed. Due to different environments, different projects require the establishment of on-site coordinate systems, precise calibration of each base station coordinate, and extensive data collection for correction. This method is basically impossible to replicate and promote, as all projects are customized projects with high costs and long cycles.

3、 Difficulties in backend system

1. Complex fault-tolerant solution mechanism. Can a high level of accuracy stability be guaranteed in complex environments with multiple occlusions (such as in equipment workshops or multi shelf storage environments). Because multipath problems are inevitable and there is not much prior information in the on-site environment, it cannot be solved by a simple Kalman filter. To achieve intelligence, adaptability, and stability, deep algorithm skills are required, and at least a mature algorithm team is needed in the future.

2. Hardware underlying optimization mechanism. To perfectly adapt to an application, it is necessary to balance precision, refresh rate, power consumption, capacity, and other factors. These indicators cannot be solely based on promotional numbers, as they are interdependent and the underlying hardware optimization mechanisms are difficult to quantify. Generally, without a few years of deep cultivation, it is difficult to do well and there will be significant problems in large-scale applications.

3. Can it be presented intuitively and smoothly. What users need is not cold X and Y coordinate values, but seamless and intuitive tracking of personnel position switching and saving; What is needed is the automation of attendance and patrol in certain fixed areas, rather than simply saving historical trajectories; According to the level of on-site modeling and the requirement for intuitive display of human-machine aspects, these all need to be accumulated and accumulated.

4. Scale application issues. Is there a multi machine hot backup mechanism for projects with hundreds or thousands of tags; Does a project with thousands or tens of thousands of tags have the ability for multi machine cluster computing.

Overall, UWB positioning is currently an engineering problem rather than an academic one. Engineering issues involve costs, implementation efficiency, and stability. The current industry practice is to segment applications and simplify technology.

Subdivide the application. Everyone is deeply involved in various sub fields, so that the project site layout will be closer, and there will be experience reference for establishing the coordinate system. After a long time, practice can make perfect, greatly reducing the probability of engineering related problems, lowering costs, and improving project stability and efficiency. For example, focusing on power plants, prisons, nursing homes, and other industries, each industry has employees who are deeply involved in their cultivation.

Simplify technology. Directly abandoning complex project customization requirements and pursuing replicability. For example, launching standardized modules with functions such as distance measurement, parallelism, and low power consumption. Different customers can integrate the modules according to their needs to meet their specific application requirements in different scenarios; For example, launching a single base station two-dimensional positioning system, which only requires one base station for visual two-dimensional positioning on site, to avoid engineering problems such as installing multiple base stations. It is recommended to consult Shenzhen Xindachang Technology Co., Ltd. in this regard. With over ten years of experience in RF and five years of experience in UWB technology, both modules and PCBA can be easily mastered. Even if there are special backend system customization needs, they can be contacted for communication.

FAQ on Ultra Wideband Positioning System?

Q What are the precautions for installing UWB positioning system?

A
Base station layout: Base stations should be reasonably arranged according to the shape, size, and occlusion of the positioning area. In open areas, the distance between base stations can be appropriately increased; In areas with many obstructions (such as metal shelves and thick walls), it is necessary to deploy encrypted base stations to ensure signal coverage and positioning accuracy. For example, in a factory workshop, if there are large metal equipment, the base station should be installed in a location that can avoid equipment obstruction and effectively cover the surrounding area with signals.

Height and angle: It is generally recommended to install the base station at a height of 2-5 meters to ensure that the signal can cover the positioning space well, while avoiding being too low and obstructed by objects, or too high and causing complex signal reflection. The installation angle should enable the base station to receive tag signals within the maximum range, usually vertically downwards or adjusted according to the actual scene.

Cable connection and power supply: Ensure a secure cable connection between the base station and equipment such as switches, follow cable laying specifications, and avoid signal interference. For PoE (Power over Ethernet) base stations, it is necessary to ensure that the switch supports PoE functionality and that the power meets the requirements of the base station; Non PoE base stations require stable DC power supply, with voltage and current in accordance with equipment specifications.

Tag installation: When installing tags on the located object, it is necessary to ensure that the direction of tag signal transmission is not severely obstructed. If personnel wear tags, they should be worn in a conspicuous and unobstructed area of the body without excessive obstruction such as clothing; The installation position of tags on the device should consider the posture of the device during operation to ensure that the tags can always communicate normally with the base station.
Q How to debug UWB positioning system for optimal performance?

A
Initial parameter setting: Through system configuration software, set parameters such as base station ID, channel, and transmission power to ensure that the parameters of each base station are coordinated and consistent, and meet the requirements of actual application scenarios. For example, in multi story buildings, base stations on different floors can set up different channels to reduce signal interference between floors.

Calibration and Calibration: The system is calibrated using calibration points at known positions. By measuring the deviation between the actual and theoretical positions of the labels at these calibration points, system parameters are adjusted to improve positioning accuracy. Specialized calibration tools or software can be used to perform multiple calibrations according to the operating steps until the accuracy meets the requirements.

Signal strength and coverage testing: Use signal testing tools to detect the signal strength of base stations at different locations within the positioning area and draw a signal strength distribution map. For areas with weak or no signal, analyze the reasons and adjust parameters such as base station location, angle, or power to enhance signal coverage.

Positioning accuracy test: Arrange multiple test points in the positioning area, move the labels at these points, and observe the positioning results displayed by the system and the actual position error. If the error exceeds expectations, check the layout, parameter settings, algorithms, and other aspects of the base station for targeted optimization. Adjust the weighting coefficients of the positioning algorithm to balance the impact of different ranging methods on the positioning results.

System stability testing: Keep the positioning system running for a period of time and observe whether there are any abnormal situations such as packet loss or positioning interruption. If there are stability issues, investigate the reasons for network connection, device cooling, software compatibility, etc., and take measures such as replacing network devices, improving cooling conditions, and updating software versions to solve them.
Q What challenges does UWB positioning face in complex environments such as multipath interference and signal occlusion?

A

Multipath interference: In complex indoor environments, UWB signals can reflect off walls, floors, object surfaces, etc., causing the receiving end to receive signals from multiple different paths. These multipath signals have different arrival times and phases, which can interfere with each other, distort the signal waveform, and affect the ranging accuracy based on signal time of arrival (ToF) or time difference of arrival (TDOA), thereby reducing the positioning accuracy. For example, in large warehouses, metal shelves will strongly reflect UWB signals, increasing the degree of multipath interference.

Signal obstruction: Although UWB signals have a certain degree of penetration ability, when encountering thick walls, metal obstacles, etc., the signal strength will significantly weaken or even be completely obstructed. When there is obstruction between the tag and the base station, it may cause signal loss or distance measurement errors, resulting in positioning deviation or inability to locate. In areas such as operating rooms and intensive care units in hospitals, a large number of metal medical equipment and shielded doors can obstruct UWB signals.

Non line of sight propagation (NLOS): When there are obstacles in the signal propagation path that prevent the signal from propagating in a straight line to the receiving end, but instead propagate through reflection, diffraction, and other means, NLOS propagation occurs. NLOS propagation can cause the measured signal propagation time to be longer than the actual line of sight propagation time, resulting in ranging errors and affecting positioning accuracy. In underground parking lots, vehicles, pillars, etc. can cause NLOS propagation of UWB signals.
Q How to deal with the challenges of UWB positioning in complex environments?

A
Multipath interference response strategy: Adopting multipath suppression algorithms, such as RAKE receiver technology, it can separate signals from different paths and perform weighted merging to enhance useful signals and suppress interference signals. Optimize the layout of base stations, reasonably set the position and angle of base stations, reduce the overlap of signal reflection paths, and reduce the impact of multipath interference. Using UWB antennas with stronger anti multipath capabilities, such as directional antennas, can reduce the reception of reflected signals from non target directions.

Signal occlusion response strategy: Increase the number of base stations and ensure through redundant deployment that tags can still communicate with other unobstructed base stations even in the presence of occlusion. Using repeaters or signal amplifiers to enhance signal strength in areas prone to signal obstruction, ensuring effective signal transmission. For unavoidable strong obstructions such as metal, one can try changing their installation position or wrapping them with signal shielding materials to reduce interference with surrounding signals.

Non line of sight propagation response strategy: Use NLOS recognition algorithm to analyze signal characteristics (such as signal strength changes, arrival time fluctuations, etc.) to determine whether NLOS propagation exists, and correct the ranging results. Combined with other positioning technologies such as Inertial Navigation (INS), in NLOS situations, inertial sensor data is used to assist in positioning and compensate for the errors caused by NLOS in UWB positioning.
Q How to integrate UWB positioning and Bluetooth positioning?

A
Principle complementarity: UWB has high positioning accuracy, reaching centimeter level, but the deployment cost of base stations is high and the coverage range is relatively limited; Bluetooth positioning has low power consumption and low cost, suitable for large-scale low precision positioning. Integrating the two and utilizing UWB positioning in key areas that require high-precision positioning, such as assembly areas in factories and the vicinity of operating rooms in hospitals; In other areas with low precision requirements, Bluetooth positioning is used for coverage. For example, in large shopping malls, UWB is used internally to provide customers with precise navigation to product shelves, while in public passages and other areas, Bluetooth positioning is used to achieve rough tracking of customer locations.

Hardware integration: Develop composite positioning tags and base station devices that integrate UWB and Bluetooth functions. Tags can send and receive UWB signals, as well as communicate with Bluetooth beacons; The base station can also support the processing of UWB and Bluetooth signals simultaneously. This can reduce the number of devices, lower deployment complexity and costs.

Data fusion algorithm: Processing UWB and Bluetooth positioning data through fusion algorithms. For example, when the UWB signal is good, the UWB positioning result is mainly used; When UWB signals are severely obstructed or interfered with, switch to Bluetooth positioning results, and use algorithms such as Kalman filtering to smooth the data of both to ensure the continuity and stability of positioning.
Q How to integrate UWB positioning and inertial navigation?

A
Working mode switching: Inertial navigation system (INS) measures the acceleration and angular velocity of an object through accelerometers and gyroscopes, calculates the position and attitude changes of the object, but its errors accumulate over time. When the UWB signal is stable and can be effectively received, the accumulated error of INS is corrected in real time based on the UWB positioning result; When the UWB signal is lost (such as in areas with severe signal obstruction), it automatically switches to INS positioning, utilizing the short-term high-precision characteristics of INS to maintain the positioning function until the UWB signal is restored. For example, in underground mines, the positioning devices worn by miners use UWB positioning in open tunnels, and rely on INS to continue positioning when entering branch tunnels with poor signals.

Data fusion optimization: Using algorithms such as Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) to fuse UWB and INS data. EKF can combine the high-precision positioning data of UWB with the continuous attitude and motion data of INS to comprehensively estimate the position, velocity, and attitude of objects, improving the accuracy and stability of positioning. Through fusion, even when the UWB signal is briefly interrupted, the current position can be predicted based on INS data and previous UWB data, making the positioning result smoother.

Q What is the cost of UWB positioning?

A
The cost of UWB positioning system includes hardware equipment cost, deployment cost, and maintenance cost. In terms of hardware, the prices of devices such as base stations and tags are relatively high; When deploying, it is necessary to plan and install reasonably according to the positioning area, which may involve certain engineering costs; The maintenance cost includes equipment updates, software upgrades, etc. However, with the development of technology and the expansion of market size, there is a gradual downward trend in costs.
Q What is the range of UWB positioning?

A
In general, the measurement range of UWB technology can reach about 33 meters, and under ideal conditions, it can even reach over 50 meters. However, in practical applications, the positioning range may be affected by environmental factors and may vary.
Q What is the accuracy of UWB positioning?

Q What are the components of UWB positioning system?

A
A typical UWB positioning system includes fixed base stations (anchor points) and mobile tags. Base stations are generally installed in fixed indoor locations, while tags are installed on equipment or personnel that require positioning. The base station and tag communicate through UWB signals to measure and transmit location information.
Q What is the difference between UWB positioning and other positioning technologies?

A
Compared with positioning technologies such as Bluetooth and WiFi, UWB has high positioning accuracy, reaching centimeter level, while Bluetooth and WiFi usually have lower accuracy. UWB has strong anti-interference ability, signal transmission is not affected by other RF interference, and has low transmission power, large system capacity, and fast transmission speed, while Bluetooth and WiFi are relatively weak in these aspects.
Q What is the principle of UWB positioning technology?

A
UWB positioning technology typically uses bidirectional time-of-flight (TW-TOF) ranging, where modules transmit and receive pulse signals and calculate the distance by calculating the signal's time of flight. When positioning, algorithms such as trilateration or Time Difference of Arrival (TDOA) are used to determine the tag position based on the distance between multiple base stations and the tag. Like TDOA technology, the tag emits a UWB signal once, and different base stations determine the tag position based on the time difference of the received signal.
