Self-localization for mobile robots using RFID tags without layout information

This paper proposes a method for mobile robot self‐localization by the use of a passive RFID system and Support Vector Machines (SVMs). The use of the SVM eliminates the need for laborious measurement of the geometric position of each RFID tag. Furthermore, the method works even when several malfunc...

Zusammenfassung:	This paper proposes a method for mobile robot self‐localization by the use of a passive RFID system and Support Vector Machines (SVMs). The use of the SVM eliminates the need for laborious measurement of the geometric position of each RFID tag. Furthermore, the method works even when several malfunctioning tags are included. The ability of the method is confirmed in tests, and we conclude that the method performs well. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
