Abstract

RFID location systems are often used in real-time location systems that come up with the problems like multipath phenomenon and layout changing. These make locating difficult because most of the location systems are based on fixed mathematical calculation that cannot take these situations into account. Using artificial neural network, our location scheme can learn the geography features to adapt to the real world. It could avoid multipath phenomenon effect and be flexibly applied to any environment. The experimental processes and result are shown in the end of the paper.
