Abstract

The paper presents the experimental implementation of a method to localize RFID tags in an outdoor environment using UAV. During the installation phase, it is possible to measure the coordinates of the installation point using a topographic GNSS receiver. The tags positions can evolve with time and after a specific desired period of time (e. g. 1 month or 1 year) it is necessary to relocate them. This can be done estimating the distance between the tags and a UAV, exploiting the measurements of the Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI). The tags are placed over an outdoor test area and a large amount of RSSI measurements are made in different position, well distributed in space, using a UAV equipped with a specific tag reader. On such data, a multilateration-based localization algorithm is applied achieving good results. The description of RFID tags is reported together with the localization algorithm, the test description and the preliminary results.

利用无人机进行环境监测的RFID标签的定位

本文介绍了一种利用无人机在室外环境下定位RFID标签的实验实现方法。在安装阶段，可以使用地形GNSS接收器测量安装点的坐标。标签的位置可以随着时间的推移而变化，在特定的期望时间(例如1个月或1年)之后，有必要重新安置它们。这可以通过利用接收信号强度指示器(RSSI)的测量来估计标签和无人机之间的距离。标签放置在室外测试区域，使用配备特定标签读取器的无人机在不同位置进行大量RSSI测量，并在空间中均匀分布。在这些数据上，应用了基于多边的定位算法，取得了良好的效果。报告了RFID标签的描述、定位算法、测试描述和初步结果。
