DecaWave

edit

DecaWave is a pioneering fabless semiconductor company which has developed a complete, single chip CMOS ultra wideband IC based on the IEEE802.15.4a standard, and building a family of parts to work at rates 110kbps, 850kbps, 6.8Mbps and 27Mbps.

DecaWave has identified the rich potential of ultra wideband (UWB) technology, with particular focus on real time location systems (RTLS) and Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), and has been instrumental in developing the alternate PHY IEEE802.15.4a standard.

The resulting silicon has a wide range of applications and DecaWave is currently working with lead companies in over 30 different verticals to develop applications in areas as diverse as agriculture, manufacturing, healthcare, lighting, security, transport, inventory & supply chain management.
