TOF RTLS Reader TOF RTLS Asset Tag 2 Introduction PLURITAGS TOF technology is a RTLS system based on Decawaves DWM1001 module. This module uses a Decawaves 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 customers site. The readers are installed at known positions and tags are used on items that needs to be localized inside plants or buildings. Figure 1-2 TOF RTLS Asset Tag Figure 1-1 TOF RTLS Reader The TOF RTLS reader is equipped with four status indicators on the top of the enclosure. These LEDs provide indication of the following:
