Do you think UWB technology will have a bright future? [Copy link]

Recently, I read a report about Qorvo, " Todd Gillenwater was interviewed by the media and talked about why he is optimistic about UWB technology. " It introduced that for ultra-wide band ( UWB ) technology, Qorvo looks forward to building on the pioneering work done by Decawave and leveraging its unique UWB capabilities to help drive new applications and businesses.

Here is a brief summary of the reasons why Todd Gillenwater is optimistic about UWB.

UWB is superior to other technologies because it uses TOF (Time of Flight) technology; other RF technologies rely on RSSI technology which is very sensitive to the environment (such as obstacles, multipath, interference, etc.). And as the name suggests, UWB has a very high bandwidth of 500MHz, which is also the key to achieve high accuracy - because resolution is inversely proportional to bandwidth (BW) (resolution = 1/BW).

Another key advantage of UWB is the very short duration (10 milliseconds) of data packets exchanged over the air.

Above all, security is one of UWB's key unique attributes. In addition to encryption provided through standard AES, UWB's unique feature is its ability to guarantee the physical presence of devices when exchanging data over the air; we call this the distance boundary protocol or "security bubble."

What do you think of UWB technology? Are you ready to make the development of this technology the main direction of future product research and development?

If it is not sensitive to the environment, that is indeed an advantage.

Yes, it is another hot technology now.
