January 2021 doc. : IEEE 802. 15 -<doc#> UWB in Rail • UWB based navigation systems for rail • Rail systems run more reliably and efficiently • Requires – Long Range (100’s of meters) • Reduce infrastructure needs – Few Outliers and Secure Ranging • Safety critical system – High Availability (Qo. S) Submission Slide 2 Josh Senna, Humatics

January 2021 doc. : IEEE 802. 15 -<doc#> UWB in Rail – Shared Infrastructure Submission Slide 3 Josh Senna, Humatics

January 2021 doc. : IEEE 802. 15 -<doc#> UWB in Mobility and Smart Cities • • Precision positioning in urban canyons Augment GPS Transit, automotive, and consumer applications Integrate into existing infrastructure GPS TRACK Submission Slide 4 Josh Senna, Humatics

January 2021 doc. : IEEE 802. 15 -<doc#> 4 z Enhancements • • Longer Range – 100’s of meters Higher precision and multipath robustness Precision time synch for TDOA and i. TDOA Enhanced security (prevent short and long range spoofing) • Enhanced Qo. S with many radios together, ideally without sacrificing duty cycle – Enhanced complex-channels – Co-existence with other radio technologies • Industrial performance with consumer compatibility Submission Slide 5 Josh Senna, Humatics
