The invention relates to the application of an indoor positioning technology, in particular to a UWB-based prisoner positioning and alarming system, which can realize the real-time positioning of prisoners and managers, the real-time check of prison conditions and the early warning of abnormal behaviors in advance through the interaction of the UWB positioning technology and an existing monitoring system. The intelligent prisoner management system comprises a position information acquisition module, a UWB (Ultra Wideband)-based prison positioning system, a prisoner management module, a prisoner management module, a prisoner management module, a prisoner management module, a prisoner management module, a prisoner management module, a prisoner management module, a prisoner management module, a prisoner management module and a prisoner management module, the position resolving module is used for filtering the original data of the position information acquisition module, resolving the position information through a positioning algorithm to obtain TDOA positioning data, and resolving to obtain two-dimensional coordinate positioning data; the positioning judgment module is used for calculating the Loc positioning data of the resolving module through an algorithm to obtain a positioning error; and the alarm judgment module formulates an alarm rule and realizes abnormal point alarm through an algorithm.
