Combining AoA and RSSI: Revolutionizing Location-Based Services with Hybrid RTLS

The world of location-based services is undergoing a swift transformation, propelled by the growing need for precise, dependable, and affordable solutions. Hybrid Real-Time Locating Systems (RTLS), which merge the strengths of Angle of Arrival (AoA) and Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) technologies, are leading the way in this evolution.

Sentrax is proud to present state-of-the-art Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE)-based AoA and RSSI devices that effortlessly integrate into hybrid RTLS systems. Our offerings are designed to deliver unmatched accuracy, versatility, and scalability for a broad spectrum of applications.

Exploring Hybrid RTLS

Conventional RTLS systems typically rely on either AoA or RSSI technology, each with its own set of pros and cons. AoA offers unparalleled accuracy but demands a more complex infrastructure, whereas RSSI provides a cost-effective alternative at the expense of reduced precision.

Hybrid RTLS addresses these limitations by thoughtfully combining both technologies. By strategically placing AoA and RSSI gateways in various locations, organizations can strike the perfect balance between accuracy and cost-effectiveness.

Advantages of Hybrid RTLS

Enhanced Precision: AoA gateways offer detailed location information in critical areas, such as high-value asset zones or sensitive environments.

Cost-Effectiveness: RSSI gateways provide a more economical approach for general location tracking, lowering the overall system expenses.

Flexibility: Hybrid RTLS is adaptable to a variety of application needs, ensuring optimal performance in different settings.

Scalability: The system can easily be expanded by adding more AoA or RSSI gateways as required, accommodating growth and evolving demands.
