Introduction

Zebra’s Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) 7GHz Tags (Models UWT-7020, and UWT-7010) are small battery-operated tags designed
for use in sports applications. The UWT-7020 is only used attached to the bladder of a football, and when enabled will track
the real time location of that ball on the field. The UWT-7010 is attached to people or assets to track their location in real time. Tags have a unique ID and emit UWB pulses that are received by Zebra’s UWB 7GHz Receivers. Receivers report detected tag events to the Zebra Hub running Zebra’s UWB real-time locating system (RTLS) software where tag location information is computed and reported.

Installation and Operation

7GHz Tags are shipped with the transmitter off. The tags can be turned on/off using a Zebra configuration tool or a Zebra
Where Port. To meet regulatory requirements and increase battery life, Tags are only turned on for specific periods of time,
and under specific conditions, for example, the length of an NFL football game. To further their battery life, Tags also slow
down their blink rates when idle.
