The Ins and Outs of UWB Technology

About This Training

Developers have been actively seeking a precise ranging technology capable of delivering accurate outdoor and indoor localization. Ultra-wideband’s (UWB) ability to process contextual information such as the position, movement and distance between UWB devices with an unprecedented precision of a few centimeters, adds spatial awareness to the system.

To understand the potential of UWB, it is important to consider the technology’s unique characteristics in terms of bandwidth, signal propagation, time of flight and angle of arrival measurement. Get technical insight into how UWB works, standardization efforts and the unique NXP UWB portfolio.

UWB’s unique combination of precision and protection is likely to become the basis for secure access and location services of all kinds. In particular, UWB shows promise for the evolution of secure transactions in mobile devices by driving the convergence of hands-free access, location-based services, payments, identification and device-to-device interactions. Learn more about the host of use cases that UWB enables, how they work and what NXP has to offer to make them a reality.
