Introduction
PLURITAG’S TOF technology is a RTLS system based on Decawave’s DWM1001 module. This module uses a
Decawave’s DW1000 UWB transceiver IC compliant with IEEE-802.15.4-2011. The purpose of the technology
is to do indoor localization using readers and tags deployed at a customer’s site. The readers are installed at
known positions and tags are used on items that needs to be localized inside plants or buildings.
