A summary of TC-MoCap's mission and future plans are included. These include additional workshops at two more CRFID-sponsored conferences later this year (IEEE RFID-TA and IEEE WiSEE) as well as a special issue call for papers for IEEE Journal on RFID in the area of Motion Capture and Localization. This talk provides an overview of cellphone location technologies in E911 services today. We'll review location accuracy requirements set by FCC and present technologies currently available to enhance location accuracy further, especially in the vertical dimension, also known as the z-axis. RFID our average mean for a and when and moving. We multi-user an average mean of system for locating In this paper, new compressive sensing (CS)-based direction of arrival (DOA) estimation technique using the beamspace (BS) processing is proposed. Two techniques have been proposed, namely, full beam-space (FBS) as well as multiple beam-space (MBS), and investigated versus the ordinary element-space (ES) technique in a CS-based framework. More, the rank one update covariance matrix has been combined along with all the investigated techniques. Both of the proposed schemes can identify more source signals than the number of sensors used, without requiring an a priori knowledge of the number of source signals to be estimated. The performance of the proposed schemes is compared to that of the ES-based technique. This paper presents a RFID-based mobile robot able of self-locating within an indoor scenario and to estimate the position of target UHF-RFID tags. To locate itself, the robot exploits a sensor-fusion method which combines data from an infrastructure of passive reference RFID tags arranged in known locations and data from rotary wheel encoders. Besides, during its motion it is able of measuring the target tag locations through a synthetic-array approach. The knowledge of the reader antenna trajectory is here achieved from the RFID-based sensor-fusion method which exhibits a localization error lower than 0.27 m for 20-m long paths in a real office environment. Then, the estimated trajectory is exploited for target tag localization with high accuracy by using the synthetic-array approach. This work revisits particle filtering RFID localization methods, solely based on phase measurements. The reader is installed on a low-cost robotic platform, which performs autonomously (and independently from the RFID reader) open source simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM). In contrast to prior art, the proposed methods introduce a weight metric for each particle-measurement pair, based on geometry arguments, robust to phase measurement noise (e.g., due to multipath). In addition, the methods include the unknown constant phase offset as a parameter to be esti","PeriodicalId":439955,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE Symposium in Low-Power and High-Speed Chips (COOL CHIPS)","volume":"85 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121391861","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since the multi-channel memory system focuses on achieving a high memory bandwidth, data are allocated to all the channels. Hence, when the memory system is accessed, all the channels are activated until the next DRAM refresh starts. Therefore, when executing compute-intensive applications that do not need a full memory bandwidth, the memory modules just waste power because of an unnecessary activation. To overcome this problem, this paper proposes a data allocation method, which controls the number of accessed channels for reducing energy consumption according to applications' demands for the memory bandwidth. The evaluation results show that the proposed method reduces the energy consumption by up to 10.4%, and 5.3% on average without degrading the performances.","PeriodicalId":439955,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE Symposium in Low-Power and High-Speed Chips (COOL CHIPS)","volume":"667 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-04-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131857533","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
