CoreHW AoA Evaluation Kit

A portfolio of direction finding and indoor location evaluation kits

AoA kit for Indoor Location and Tracking

CoreHW provides evaluation kits to a range of industries, enabling them to develop indoor location systems for enhanced location-based applications based on Bluetooth® Angle of Arrival (AoA) technology.

Our reference designs (demo kits) are intended for testing, demonstrating the system’s capabilities, project pilots, and evaluation of our real-time locating system with 10-centimeter-level accuracy.

AoA measurement is enabled by CoreHW firmware in the tags and locators, with Ethernet interface connecting locators to a Windows PC with the position engine software and GUI (graphical user interface).

How Does our AoA Evaluation Kit Work?

Angle of Arrival (AoA) demo system

The CoreHW Indoor Positioning system is composed of locators (anchors), tags, positioning engine, firmware, and a graphical user interface (GUI). Tags communicate with the locators, which are placed throughout the tracking area.

A special direction finding signal is transmitted by the tracked tag using a single antenna. The locators, with multiple antennas (an antenna array), receive the direction finding signal.

As multiple locators are utilized, the angle of arrival from various locators can be employed to determine the location of tags. The position engine then runs an algorithm that uses the data captured by each locator to determine the 3D location of tagged assets.
