This will simplify and speed installation, without sacrificing location accuracy – guaranteed, says the company, based on the company’s continued use of its patented location software, active-RFID and the 433 MHz UHF band to calculate location.

To assure hospitals of interference-free operation, accurate room-level precision and support for patient tracking, throughput and clinical effectiveness applications, Radianse will continue to use its patented algorithms, active-RFID and the 433 MHz UHF band to calculate location. [end]
