Indoor Positioning with Ultra-Wideband: Enhancing Accuracy through Data Filtering

Abstract: Indoor positioning technology plays a vital role in tracking movements within spaces where traditional outdoor GPS systems fail to operate effectively. This research employed Ultra-Wideband (UWB) technology to monitor the live trajectory of operators within an actual production facility, highlighting the significance of warehouse re-layout. The system's effectiveness was assessed in two key zones: the goods receiving and shipping area, and the space amidst warehouse shelves. Enhanced results were achieved through the implementation of various filtering techniques. Nonetheless, the study also uncovered practical limitations, revealing a level of accuracy lower than expected.
