1 Introduction The Modular Ubitag V2.3 is a wireless module intended to be integrated into other devices for the real-time location of objects. It transmits wideband pulses which are picked up by a network of basestations (Ubisensors), allowing the 3D position of the tag to be found. The use of wideband technology enables greater positioning accuracy within buildings than other wireless technologies, because it is much less susceptible to multipath interference effects.

3 Integration information The dimensions of the module PCB are shown below: 24.5mm 20mm Ub ise ns e 24.5mm 20mm 2.1mm 4.5mm 1.6mm 3mm When mounting the tag on another device care must be taken to avoid occlusion of the antennas by tall components, shielding, or mounting screws. There should be an air gap of at least 1mm left around both of the antennas to avoid detuning. While the connector provides some mechanical fixing it is not recommended that this is the only fixing point.
