3 10/14/ VTT Embedded Sensors and Appliances team UWB data transmission and positioning technologies Impulse radar technology Relative distance Energy harvesting, management and wireless energy transmission Short range wireless technologies (WSN s, indoor positioning, RFID, NFC) Energy harvesting and transmission technologies. RFID, NFC research, NFC charging. NFC Charging WPC Charging "Qi low power" "Qi medium power" "NFC low power" "NFC high power" 0.1 W 1 W 10 W 100 W

4 10/14/ UWB technology basics Relatively immune to disturbances. Doesn t disturb conventional radio transmitters (power level ca. 1 mw). Operational distance < 100 meters. Very broad signal bandwidth, typically > 500 MHz. Very fast pulses -> great accuracy in positioning applications.

5 10/14/ WiMedia UWB technology basics UWB Wider range Other applications According to IEEE m 500m

7 10/14/ UWB positioning methods AOA method UWB pulse t 1 Tag t 2 UWB pulse Tag location can be calculated from angles of arrival (α 1 and α 2 ). This in 3-D, too. α 1 α 2 Sensor node Sensor node

8 10/14/ UWB positioning methods TOA, TDOA methods Sensor node UWB pulse t 1 UWB pulse Tag t 3 t 2 UWB pulse Tag location can be calculated from flying times t1, t2 and t3. Or from time differences of these flying times (sensor nodes must be synchronized). This in 3-D, too. Sensor node Sensor node

9 10/14/ Researched UWB solutions Uses ultra-wideband (UWB) radio Sensors use combined Angle-of-Arrival (AoA) and Time-Difference-of-Arrival technology (TDoA) Promised 3D location accuracy of 15cm across 95% of readings Max. Tag-Sensor range 160m; update rate of 10Hz

12 10/14/ Potential usages for UWB technology Data transmission Positioning of boom head Positioning of joints Automatic work phases

13 10/14/ Potential usages for UWB technology Positioning 3D positioning Removing cables Wireless data transmission Energy Harvesting

14 10/14/ Potential usages for UWB technology Positioning Avoiding collisions Data transmission Removing cables Automatic work phases

15 10/14/ Experiences on utilizing UWB technology AOA technology One source of measurement error derives from calibration inaccuracy (sensor position, yaw, pitch and roll) Creating a toolbox to help with the calibration process (to reduce the amount of survey point measurements needed) The toolbox calculates, for example, weighted mean values for sensor s properties (angle/cable offset) from several measurement points and shows the measured position (and error) in real-time.
