Ultra-Wideband (UWB) is a wireless communication protocol that operates across a broad spectrum of frequencies. Unlike traditional narrowband technologies, UWB uses a wide range of radio frequencies, typically over 500 MHz, to transmit data. This allows for highly precise location tracking, with accuracy down to a few centimeters, and robust short-range communication.
UWB provides highly accurate directional location tracking, with precision down to a few centimeters, making it ideal for smart door lock proximity and direction detection features.
UWB operates over a wide range of frequencies, minimizing interference with other wireless technologies and enabling robust communication over short distances.
Starting with the iPhone 11 series, Apple integrated Ultra-Wideband (UWB) technology into its devices to enhance features like precision location tracking and proximity detection.
