Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer readable media for time-slotted ultra-wide-band (UWB) object tracking are disclosed. A system includes anchors and tags having synchronized timing systems. The anchors are configured for performing time-slotted UWB ranging during time windows, one for each tag. During each window, the anchors sequentially transmit UWB transmissions in designated time slots, one for each anchor, as specified by an order of operation. The anchors receive responsive UWB transmissions from the tag assigned to the time window and determine time-of-flight measurements for the responsive UWB transmissions.
