DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF ULTRA-WIDEBAND BASED TRACKING SYSTEM

This study in industrial and warehouse environments, precise and real-time asset tracking is essential forefficient logistics, inventory management, and operational optimization. This paper presents an Ultra-Wideband(UWB)-based real-time asset tracking system utilizing DWM1001C modules as anchors and tags withRaspberry Pi Zero 2W as a mobile attached tag to achieve high accuracy localization. The system employs theTime Difference of Arrival (TDoA) positioning method to determine asset locations with centimeter-levelprecision. The proposed system utilizes a button-triggered event-based tracking mechanism, optimizing powerconsumption while ensuring real-time tracking. A structured database (MySQL/Firebase) is integrated forlocation data storage and retrieval, enabling historical tracking and predictive analytics. Performance evaluationdemonstrates high accuracy, low latency, and improved power efficiency. Future enhancements include AIdriven predictive tracking, cloud-based data integration, and mobile application support. This researchestablishes UWB as a viable solution for scalable, low-latency, and high-precision industrial asset trackingapplications.
