Abstract

To achieve accurate localization of mobile robot in indoor environment, various methods which are based on RFID technology have been developed over the past decade. Especially, the distribution of RFID tags is one of the main issues in real-world applications. In this paper, we propose a new RFID tag arrangement strategy based on the topology of the given map. The proposed method divides the given map into geometric sections by applying Voronoi graph method. To estimate accurate position in local section, we adopt the particle filter; this causes computational complexity. By modified weighting of the particle filter, we can reduce the number of particles.
