Localization of tagged inhabitants in smart environments

چکیده
In this paper, tagging techniques are employed to identify monitored inhabitants in smart environments. The aim of the work is to recognize the presence of the tagged inhabitants in different areas of the environment. RSSI based localizing agents are used in separate areas to measure the distance of the tagged persons from the reader agents. Then a clustering method is applied to the readings from the reader agents to find the data cluster of each area representing the occupied area by the tagged inhabitants. In this paper two different technologies including active RFID and ZigBee wireless technology are compared in distance based and area based experiments. It is shown that the accuracy of occupied area detection is depended on RSSI accuracy factors such as receiver sensitivity, data rate, layout of the environments, and obstacles in the smart environment KeywordsLocalizing, occupancy, tagging, active RFID, WSN, ZigBee, radio signal strength, intelligent environment.

متن کاملSmart Homes
We live in an increasingly connected and automated society. Smart environments embody this trend by linking computers to everyday tasks and settings. Important features of such environments are that they possess a degree of autonomy, adapt themselves to changing conditions, and communicate with humans in a natural way. These systems can be found in offices, airports, hospitals, classrooms, or a...
متن کاملEffects of Moving Landmark’s Speed on Multi-Robot Simultaneous Localization and Mapping in Dynamic Environments
Even when simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) solutions have been broadly developed, the vast majority of them relate to a single robot performing measurements in static environments. Researches show that the performance of SLAM algorithms deteriorates under dynamic environments. In this paper, a multi-robot simultaneous localization and mapping (MR-SLAM) system is implemented within a...

The existence of advanced smart devices and related technologies such as pervasive computing, mobile wireless communications, sensor networks and agent technologies have supported the proliferation of smart spaces. In this paper, we present the design of “Bosthan”, a multi-agent-based simulation tool that manages resources consumption in multi-inhabitants smart spaces. Bosthan is built on the t...
متن کاملPersistent Authentication in Smart Environments
Inhabitants in smart environments are often authenticated when they enter the smart environment, e.g., through biometrics or smart-/swipe-card systems. It may sometimes be necessary to re-authenticate when an inhabitant wishes to enter a restricted area or access ambient services or location based information, e.g., it is common to have swipe card terminals placed next to doors to restricted ar...
