LG Electronics UWB001 MODULE UWB Module
Product Overview
The UWB001 module is based on Decawave’s DW1000 Ultra-Wideband (UWB) transceiver IC. It has an integrated chip antenna, all RF circuitry, power management and clock circuitry in one module. It can be used in 2-way ranging or TDOA location systems to locate assets to a precision of 10 cm and supports data rates of up to 6.8 Mbps.
Key Features
- IEEE 802.15.4-2011 UWB compliant
- Supports 4 RF bands from 3.5 GHz to 6.5 GHz (Note: only the 4.4 GHz band has been approved for use. Contact manufacturer for use of other bands.
- Programmable transmitter output power which is set by the manufacturer.
- Fully coherent receiver for maximum range and accuracy
- Supply voltage 2.8 V to 3.6 V
- Low power consumption
- Data rates of 110 kbps, 850 kbps, 6.8 Mbps
- A maximum packet length of 1023 bytes for high data throughput applications
- Supports 2-way ranging and TDOA
- SPI interface to host processor
Key Benefits
- Simplifies integration, no RF design is required
- The very precise location of tagged objects delivers enterprise efficiency gains and cost reductions
- The extended communications range minimizes the required infrastructure in RTLS
- High multipath fading immunity
- Supports very high tag densities in RTLS
- Low cost allows cost-effective implementation of solutions
- Low power consumption reduces the need to replace batteries and lowers system lifetime costs
Applications
- Precision real-time location systems (RTLS) using two-way ranging or TDOA schemes in a variety of markets.
- Location-aware wireless sensor networks (WSNs),

OTHER REGULATORY INFORMATION
THIS DEVICE COMPLIES WITH PART 15 OF THE FCC RULES. OPERATION IS SUBJECT TO THE FOLLOWING TWO CONDITIONS.
(1) THIS DEVICE MAY NOT CAUSE HARMFUL INTERFERENCE, AND (2) THIS DEVICE MUST ACCEPT ANY INTERFERENCE RECEIVED, INCLUDING INTERFERENCE THAT MAY CAUSE UNDESIRED OPERATION.
Warning:
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment.
Note:
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Radiation Exposure Statement:
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits for mobile devices. To ensure compliance, the antenna(s) used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20cm from all persons and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter (must not transmit simultaneously with any other antenna or transmitter, except in accordance with FCC multi-transmitter product procedures).
