LOCN2-1.0 Locator

CHW1010-LOCN2-1.0 Locator is a Bluetooth AoA development kit locator device intended for indoor location system providers. The locator includes CoreHW ANT1 AoA antenna array board and CoreHW IPS Main Board. The ANT1 antenna array board contains 8 dual linear polarized patch antennas and CoreHW CHW1010 SP16T Bluetooth AoA/AoD capable antenna switch for Bluetooth AoA CTE sampling.

CoreHW IPS Main Board, contains a BLE SoC which controls CoreHW 1010 AoA antenna switch and performs I/Q-sampling of CTE advertising packets sent by compatible Bluetooth AoA Tags. The main board runs CoreHW proprietary angle estimation algorithm to calculate 2D Angle-of-Arrival for AoA Tags. Calculated angle data can then be passed for further processing on positioning system via Ethernet, USB, Hardware UART, or SPI interfaces.
