Qorvo Ultra-wideband helps rework and resume production in all walks of life around the world

Greensboro, North Carolina, USA, October 5, 2020-Qorvo® (Nasdaq: QRVO), a leading provider of RF solutions for mobile applications, infrastructure and aerospace, and defense applications, today announced that More than a dozen device manufacturers have adopted Qorvo’s ultra-wideband (UWB) technology in proximity sensing applications. UWB is specially developed for highly reliable real-time positioning and sensing applications, whether indoor or outdoor, it has excellent distance measurement performance with accuracy within a few centimeters.
Nowadays, various industries, including healthcare, logistics, electronics, construction, and education, are exploring the use of proximity sensing tools to help employees return to work safely. These applications use wearable UWB devices to continuously monitor the distance between employees, and in some cases are also used to track employees’ compliance with social distancing and to track contacts. Leading equipment manufacturers in North America, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific region use Qorvo’s UWB technology.

Qingyan Technology is a leading precision ranging and positioning solution provider headquartered in Beijing. Its CEO Rayson Zhao said: “We are very pleased to support the company’s rework plan. We have been working with us since 2013. Decawave (now Qorvo) cooperated and received wide acclaim from customers. We found that our LocalSense products based on Qorvo UWB technology can achieve higher accuracy compared to solutions using other wireless standards.”Through Decawave (now part of Qorvo), the company has delivered more than 8 million UWB chipsets in more than 40 different markets. Some solution providers are beginning to use Qorvo’s DWM1001C module, which integrates UWB transceivers, microcontrollers and Bluetooth® technology. Other companies use Qorvo’s UWB technology for distance sensing and social distance applications, including Redpoint based in the United States and Ubudu in Europe.Eric Creviston, President of Qorvo’s Mobile Products Division, said: “Proximity sensing is an important safety consideration for many companies returning to work. UWB is the technology of choice for this application, enabling the highest accuracy and supporting the development of compact low-power solutions. We It is believed that the use of proximity sensing tools can accelerate the adoption of UWB technology in other workplaces that require precise positioning and distance sensing, including asset tracking and indoor navigation. Similarly, the technology can also be used in many other fields, including mobile devices, automobiles, and Smart home.”
