MRLIHT: Mobile RFID-Based Localization for Indoor Human Tracking

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology has been widely used in indoor location tracking, especially serving human beings, due to its advantage of low cost, non-contact communication, resistance to hostile environments and so forth. Over the years, many indoor location tracking methods have been proposed. However, tracking mobile RFID readers in real-time has been a daunting task, especially for achieving high localization accuracy. In this paper, we propose a new Mobile RFID (M-RFID)-based Localization approach for Indoor Human Tracking, named MRLIHT. Based on the M-RFID model where RFID readers are equipped on the moving objects (human beings) and RFID tags are fixed deployed in the monitoring area, MRLIHT implements the real-time indoor location tracking effectively and economically. First, based on the readings of multiple tags detected by an RFID reader simultaneously, MRLIHT generates the response regions of tags to the reader. Next, MRLIHT determines the potential location region of the reader where two algorithms are devised. Finally, MRLIHT estimates the location of the reader by dividing the potential location region of the reader into finer-grained grids. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed MRLIHT performs well in both accuracy and scalability.

Indoor Location

Collecting data like location information is an essential part of concepts like the “IoT” or “Industry 4.0”. In the case of the development of a precise localization system and an integrated navigation system, indoor location technology receives more and more attention and has become a hot research topic. Common indoor location techniques are mainly based on wireless local area network, radio frequency tag, ZigBee technology, Bluetooth technology, infrared technology and ultra-wideband (UWB). However, these techniques are vulnerable to various noise signals and indoor environments, and also the positioning accuracy is easily affected by the complicated indoor environment. We studied the problem of real-time location tracking based on UWB in an indoor environment in this paper. We have proposed a combinational filtering algorithm and an improved Two-Way Ranging (ITWR) method for indoor real-time location tracking. The simulation results prove that the real-time performance and high accuracy of the presented algorithm can improve location accuracy. The experiment shows that the combinational algorithm and ITWR method which are applied to the positioning and navigation of the smart supermarket, have achieved quiet good results in positioning accuracy. The average positioning error is less than 10[Formula: see text]cm, some of the improvements can elevate the positioning accuracy by 17.5%. UWB is a suitable method for indoor real-time location tracking and has important theoretic value and practical significance.

Special Protection

In this paper, a security-monitoring system for tiny relics is proposed, which is used to improve the reliability and stability of the museum security system nowadays. This paper analyzed the security-monitoring system of most of the museums in China, and two defects have been discovered. One is that there is almost no security facility which can provide special protection for tiny relics. The other is that there is no effective way to retrieve rare and valuable relics missing in the museum. The security-monitoring system for tiny relics can make up for these weaknesses by integrating two modules, alarm module and position module. Using reed switch as sensitive element, added with chip PT2262, the alarm module can sense micro movement and send position code to central computer wirelessly. Meanwhile, adopting radio frequency identification (RFID) technology for indoor location, position module can provide precise track of moving objects in museums. Combined with traditional security-monitoring, this system can achieve the best protection for tiny relics.

Wireless Positioning

Dalam sebuah perusahaan besar biasanya memiliki banyak karyawan. Tetapi jumlah karyawan yang banyak tersebut dapat menyebabkan kurangnya pengawasan dan pengendalian terhadap sistem kerja pegawai. Tumbuhnya teknologi informasi memberikan peluang untuk menyelesaikan permasalahan ini. Salah satu teknologi yang bisa digunakan adalah wireless positioning sytem (WPS). Pemanfaatan teknologi ini memberikan solusi dengan memberikan informasi posisi pegawai berdasarkan kekuatan sinyal WiFi yang dipancarkan dari telepon genggam. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk merancang sistem indoor location tracking berbasis Android dengan algoritma k-nearest neighbor (K-NN). Pada sistem ini, proses rancang bangun dilakukan melalui tahapan perhitungan pembacaan posisi dari client, perbandingan database dengan menggunakan algoritma K-NN, dan metode fingerprint localization sehingga informasi koordinat client dapat ditampilkan dalam peta koordinat secara real-time. Berdasarkan hasil pengujian, rancang bangun sistem yang telah dilakukan memiliki keakuratan sangat baik. Rata rata akurasi data besar dari 60% dengan kondisi client yang bergerak aktif maupun diam di tempat.
