The high-precision positioning of the low-cost uwb module facilitates the safe construction of tunnels. In recent years, with the rapid development of tunnel construction, the safety control of operators during tunnel construction and maintenance is particularly important. Traditional cameras and gates have surveillance blind spots. There is no complete picture of the current location, number and activity of tunnel workers. Therefore, the security inspection department has put forward higher requirements for the security control of the current tunnel, and the security of the tunnel management system has been effectively improved by using the positioning technology, but the above problems have been solved.

Low-cost uwb module high-precision positioning helps tunnel safety construction

From the perspective of positioning technology, low-power uwb module high-precision positioning is undoubtedly an ideal choice, whether from the perspective of positioning accuracy, security, anti-interference, power consumption and so on. As a leading high-precision positioning service provider in China, through further upgrades and optimizations, a complete system has been established for the tunnel industry, with a market trend of high precision and low cost. It is designed to help customers implement management and applications more efficiently and at lower costs.


The tunnel personnel safety control solution adopts advanced UWB positioning technology to achieve accurate positioning of personnel and vehicles through positioning algorithms, with an average accuracy of up to 10cm. The system can perform base station self-calibration without manually measuring coordinates. The coverage radius of a single base station is not less than 300m; through a base station equipped with a bridge, a seamless connection with the high-power directional coverage bridge in the tunnel can be achieved. The uwb module high-precision positioning system can realize real-time positioning, monitoring and management, alarming and other functions of on-site personnel, greatly improving construction safety and management efficiency, reducing safety hazards and reducing the occurrence of safety accidents.


Locate base station

Using wireless backhaul, line-of-sight 300 meters, outdoor wired high-power positioning base station.

The coverage of a single base station is farther than similar devices on the market, which can save costs.

Management platform

Real-time monitoring: The tunnel map displays the full picture of the tunnel in real time, and the monitoring personnel can grasp the actual location and quantity of each construction/inspection personnel at any time through the software interface.


Trajectory tracking: It can track the movement route of personnel, describe the historical trajectory in real time, play back the historical trajectory, and master the detailed forward route and time. The high-precision positioning of the uwb module plays an important role in rescue or accident analysis.


Alarm upload: When the construction/inspector encounters a dangerous situation, they can press the SOS alarm on the label, and the monitoring personnel can quickly lock the accident scene to provide strong support for the implementation of rescue.


Sending an alarm: In an emergency, the monitoring personnel can issue an emergency instruction prompt, and command the evacuation when evacuating. When a person enters the alarm area, the tag will vibrate and prompt the person to stay away from the alarm area.


Personnel attendance rate: Personnel can conduct attendance rate statistics, and can classify and summarize statistics according to work type, team, etc., and the statistical results are detailed and accurate. The high-precision positioning statistical results of the uwb module can also be saved as Excel tables and printed reports, and can also be seamlessly integrated with other management systems for easy management.
