Electromagnetic compatibility and Radio spectrum Matters (ERM); System Reference Document; Short Range Devices (SRD); Technical characteristics for SRD equipment using Ultra Wide Band Sensor technology (UWB); Part 5: Location tracking applications type 2
The present document defines the requirements for radio frequency usage for Ultra Wide Band (UWB) location tracking devices type 2. These devices would operate in the frequency ranges from 3@4 GHz to 4@8 GHz and from 6 GHz to 8@5 GHz. Operation is foreseen for indoor and outdoor applications in the range 3@4 GHz to 4@8 GHz and only indoor applications in the range 6 GHz to 8@5 GHz as for the earlier type (i.e. type 1) covered in TR 102 495-3 [i.9]. The operating distance may be limited to about 200 metres. It would include applications from all different markets (see list of markets in introduction). Site-specific licensing of fixed outdoor tracking systems using higher emission levels is possible and proposed by the present document. The present document covers ultra-wideband location tracking tags which are attached to people or objects. The tags are tracked using a base station infrastructure. Equipment covered by the present document is fitted with an integral or dedicated antenna. Additional information is given in the following annexes: ? Detailed market information (annex A). ? Technical information (annex B). ? Expected compatibility issues (annex C).
