RTLS Simulation
Testing of planned RTLS installations without disrupting operational processes
By using the key technology UWB RTLS, a digital twin of any physical object can be supplemented with localization data. The digital twin thus has valuable information about the real-time position and acceleration of the real object and is therefore available to many additional applications. From asset tracking to the digitization of manufacturing to the localization of medical devices, this technology not only optimizes factory processes but is also used to improve human safety.
To ensure optimal RTLS radio coverage, the KATHREIN Solutions engineering team uses an advanced radio propagation modeling and simulation tool. Using this software tool, industrial layouts can virtually view both indoor and outdoor areas to calculate and visualize coverage of single and multiple RTLS nodes and optimize them accordingly if required. This enables precise planning with optimized position and reduced number of RTLS nodes as well as a reliable connection to each RTLS transponder to be tracked. The result is an efficient RTLS system at reduced costs.
Thanks to its advanced simulation software, KATHREIN Solutions is able to simulate RTLS installations with a high degree of accuracy - without major effort or disruption to the end customer's business processes. As a result of the simulation, the KATHREIN Solutions partner has all the data required to create a reliable project calculation and quotation.
