2. UWB: the next trillion-level application market of the Internet of things
Compared with other positioning technologies, Ultra Wideband (UWB) wireless positioning technology has become the hotspot and first choice of wireless positioning technology in the future because of its low power consumption, good anti-multipath effect, high security and low system complexity, especially it can provide very accurate positioning accuracy.
The field of enabling is broad, and a variety of application scenarios are created. In the second half of 2019, Apple Inc launched iPhone11 with UWB chip, which became its key innovation technology of the year. In the future, UWB can be widely used in smart factories, logistics warehousing, smart buildings, smart parks, public security bureaus, procuratorates, courts and other scenarios to help B-end customers operate efficiently and safely in production. UWB is oriented to 2C areas of smart access control, location services and D2D applications, and can be used in smart home smart consumption industry, smart city smart transportation, smart retail and intelligent building industry and other fields.
The enterprise application market is huge, and the potential scale of UWB in the domestic enterprise application market can reach more than 128 billion yuan. It mainly includes judicial prisons, tertiary hospitals, mines, chemical plants, factories and warehouses and other application scenarios with high demand for material or personnel management. According to data from IoT Media, the market size of UWB positioning enterprise applications in China is 1.09 billion yuan in 2018, and is expected to reach 12.15 billion yuan in 2022, with a compound growth rate of 82.72 percent from 2018 to 2022.
