چکیده
Accurate and highly reliable self-localization system is needed for a mobile robot to work in human daily life environment. The studies of a indoor autonomous mobile robot often use visual sensors and laser range finders. Unfortunately, it is difficult to estimate the exact global location if the environment has number of places that have similar shape boundaries or small number of landmarks to localize. Furthermore, it is not robust against environmental changes and unexpected obstacles. Self-localization system based on reading RFIDtags on floor is robust against lighting condition, unexpected obstacles, furniture and doors conditions in the environment. This paper shows RFID-based self-localization system for a omni-directional vehicle and compares its performance to the LRF-based localization.

Design of an HF-Band RFID System with Multiple Readers and Passive Tags for Indoor Mobile Robot Self-Localization
Radio frequency identification (RFID) technology has already been explored for efficient self-localization of indoor mobile robots. A mobile robot equipped with RFID readers detects passive RFID tags installed on the floor in order to locate itself. The Monte-Carlo localization (MCL) method enables the localization of a mobile robot equipped with an RFID system with reasonable accuracy, suffici...
متن کاملA Supervised Learning Approach to Robot Localization Using a Short-Range RFID Sensor
This work is concerned with the problem of robot localization using standard RFID tags as landmarks and an RFID reader as a landmark sensor. A main advantage of such an RFID-based localization system is the availability of landmark ID measurement, which trivially solves the data association problem. While the main drawback of an RFID system is its low spatial accuracy. The result in this paper ...

متن کاملAn Indoor Localization System Design Using RSSI and RFID Signals for Security Purpose by Distance Analysis
A global indoor localization system based on the radio frequency identification (RFID) technology. A reader, installed on the robot, measures the received signal strength indication (RSSI) and the phase shift of UHF-RFID signals coming from a set of passive tags deployed on the ceiling of the environment. The position of the tags in the environment is only roughly known at the beginning. Exploi...
