Introduction
The Ubisensor30v1 is a basestation used by the Ubisense Location System, which supports
the real-time location of objects. It detects ultra-wideband (UWB) pulses emitted by wireless
tags (Ubitags), allowing the 3D position of the tags to be found. The use of UWB technology
enables greater positioning accuracy than other wireless technologies, because it is much
less susceptible to multipath interference effects. Applications of the system include
healthcare, workplace productivity, security, retail management and manufacturing.
This document describes the features and specifications of the Ubisensor30v1, important
regulatory information concerning its use, and details on how to diagnose potential problems.
