Abstract

Growing convergence among mobile computing devices and embedded tech-nology promotes the development and the deployment of “context-aware” applications, where location is the most essential context. In this paper we present an improved probabilistic method based on RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) for locating objects inside buildings. The major advantage of this algorithm is to improve the probabilistic method based on Bayesian theory by introducing reference tags to amend the initial location estimation. Based on the experiment, we prove that we can get a higher accuracy in indoor location estimation with this method.
