Abstract

The objective of this review is to analyze Ultra Wide Band (UWB) technology, as an option that allows developing new solutions in indoor positioning systems (IPS), mainly with a approach applied to the elderly. The methodology that has been applied corresponds to the definition of some basics concepts about UWB and some tests in the lab; the above to demonstrate the degree of accuracy that UWB offers compared to other technologies. The findings found and presented in this paper correspond to the identification of UWB as a technology with a high degree of accuracy for IPS; also, that there are other works related to the subject, with application in different areas, but specifically as an application for older people; regarding to the tests, these allowed to verify in the laboratory the operation and accuracy of UWB, for its possible application in IPS. The research described in this paper is the beginning of a implementation in a residence center, where accuracy in location and real-time response are important, in the future we hope make conclusive contributions of the implementations made.
