In this paper, the use of passive Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) as a support technology for mobile robot navigation and environment mapping is investigated. A novel method for localizing passive RFID tags in a geometric map of the environment using fuzzy logic is, first, described. Then, it is shown how a mobile robot equipped with RF antennas, RF reader, and a laser range finder can use such map for localization and path planning. Experimental results from tests performed in our institute suggest that the proposed approach is accurate in mapping RFID tags and can be effectively used for vehicle navigation in indoor environments.

RFID technology has been widely used in mobile robot positioning system for its unique advantages. RFID tags store their unique positions which are placed on the ceiling or the floor. The mobile robot carries a RFID reader which reads the RFID tags to position itself. In this paper, a new method for mobile robot localization is proposed, and the equations to calculate the position of the mobile robot are given. Finally, the experiment results show that compared to conventional positioning method, the proposed method can effectively improve the positioning accuracy of the mobile robot.
