Integration of RFID, GNSS and DR for Ubiquitous Positioning in Pedestrian Navigation

Tags: rfid

Overview Location determination of pedestrians in urban and indoor environment can be very challenging if GNSS signals are blocked and only pseudorange measurements to less than four satellites are available. Therefore a combination with other wireless technologies for absolute position determination and Dead Reckoning (DR) for relative positioning has to be performed. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is an emerging technology that can be employed for location determination of a mobile user in indoor and urban environment. RFID transponders (or tags) can be placed at known location (so-called active landmarks) in the environment and the user who has to be positioned can carry a RFID transceiver (or reader).
