RFID sensor placement algorithm in ubiquitous computing

Abstract

RFID applications are used in the Internet of Things (IoTs) which uses multiple readers to read the IDs of multiple tags and form the RFID network. In such a network, unguarded reader deployment may generate over-crowded readers, cause interferences. The deployment is crucial for RFID system performance Radio Frequency Identification (or RFID) tags have seen its wide range of applications in the recent years and has a very promising future. In the present scenario, Ubiquitous computing plays an important role in our daily lives and has a vast range of applications in many fields. In this paper we have proposed a system which uses RFID tags for guidance of tourists. The system uses RFID tags to guide and inform the tourists about a given location and surrounding. We have proposed an algorithm which describes the system's implementation even for densely populated RFID Reader based geographical area. The system requires multiple readers and it collaborates to read the RFID tag data.
