To solve the poor location accuracy of wireless sensor networks using Received Signal Strength Indication (RSSI) ranging. Time Of Flight (TOF) ranging is used to ensure the accuracy based on two optional physical layer of Impulse Radio-Ultra Wide-Band (IR-UWB) and Chirp Spread Spectrum (CSS) in IEEE802.15.4a. In this paper, we designed ranging module utilizing CSS and UWB. In the Line Of Sight (LOS) and None Line Of Sight (NLOS) environments ranging accuracy test is implemented, the test results show that the IR-UWB ranging technology can achieve higher ranging accuracy and better multipath resistance compared to CSS.
