Abstract
A location system interacts with a localizing sensor operatable in an ultra-wideband (UWB) localization operation mode requiring computation of position information based on received UWB beacon signals received by the localizing sensor. The location system includes: an UWB infrastructure enabling the localizing for the UWB localization operation mode. The UWB infrastructure has: stationary transmitters emitting the UWB beacon signals into a localizing zone; discovery infrastructure wireless communicating infrastructure data about the UWB infrastructure to the localizing sensor, the discovery infrastructure having a discovery signal transceiver receiving a discovery advertisement signal from the localizing sensor and sending, in response, a provisioning signal with the infrastructure data. A data storage is configured to store the infrastructure data that is required to operate the localizing sensor in the UWB operation mode in accordance with a UWB framing protocol.
