Ultra-low Power Passive RFID Tag Localization and Tracking in UWB Backscattering Systems (Energy Harvesting and Storage Europe 2012)

 

SELECT is a project carried out with financial support from the ICT theme of the EU FP7 (GA.257544). The objective is the development of a new-generation RTLS based on UWB passive tags. SELECT aims at integrating identification, detection, and high-accuracy location/tracking functionalities together with the development of passive RFID sensors that use UHF and backscattered UWB radio signaling as glue technologies. The consortium is composed of research institutes (Armines, CEA-LETI, CEIT, CNIT, Fraunhofer IIS) as well as industrial partners (Oria, Novelda, and Datalogic). The project is coordinated by Datalogic, a worldwide leader in Automatic Data Capture and Factory Automation markets.
