The two companies have been partners since 2016 and the latest firmware running on Nordic’s nRF52832 BLE/Bluetooth 5 SoC, uses the Bluetooth LE protocol to transmit the ‘Angle-of-Arrival’ (AoA) radio packets which determine the position in space of a Bluetooth LE transceiver. Bluetooth 5.1 Direction Finding improves on this technique by providing simplified access to the Bluetooth LE protocol’s IQ signal data for the Quuppa positioning engine. The technology has been employed by major Bluetooth beacon and tag manufacturers for tracking applications with accuracies down to a few centimetres.

Quuppa以前使用Nordic的NRF52系列架构的长期经验将基于该技术显着扩展RTLS解决方案提供商和应用程序的生态系统。Bluetooth 5.1将鼓励进一步扩展.1方向搜索来自不同供应商和下一代智能手机的产品之间的互操作性。

Nordic的NRF52811 SoC是第一个蓝牙5.1兼容的商业解决方案之一，并采用了64MHz，32位ARM Cortex M4处理器，该处理器提供了可监控蓝牙RF软件协议和RF配置文件定位引擎固件的充分开销。
