Introduction The Plus Model 2110 Limited Module is a modular design for integration into a host product consisting of, at a minimum, an enclosure and a 3 VDC battery. It has the following features: Runs from a 3 VDC power source (can operate down to 2 volts DC) Will transmit a UWB packet at a rate set at time of manufacture. Rate can be set to 1Hz, 6Hz, or 10Hz. Meets FCC Section 15.212, rules concerning single limited modular transmitters. Certified to comply with FCC Part 15.
Overview Background Tag tracking is accomplished by analyzing time-differences-of-arrival (TDOAs) of tag transmissions. When a tag transmits a packet, PLUS ® Sensors that successfully receive the packet will send out information concerning the tag packet, including a precise timestamp. The difference in the timestamp between sensors gives the TDOA for that sensor pair/tag combination. At least three sensors must hear a tag in order to determine a valid position for that tag.
The PWA document defines the connections of the 2110 Tag board circuitry and the AVL for all the components. The PWA also contains the block diagram for the 2110 Tag. The controlling documentation is for the exclusive use of PLUS Location Systems USA, LLC, or it’s designated Contract Manufacturer (CM) for the production of host products using the Module. As a Limited Module, the Module will not be provided to third parties for integration in host products.
