Real-time RFID positioning system and method, repeater installation method therefor, position confirmation service system using the same
First Claim
1. A system for determining a location of a mobile object in real-time, comprising:
- a wireless repeater for identifying a radio frequency identification (RFID) tag by communicating with the RFID tag attached or installed at a target object to determine a location thereof,wherein the wireless repeater is installed at an urban facility and a location of the target object is determined based on a coordinate of a corresponding urban facility as a reference location point, andwherein the location of the target object is determined based on a time of arrival (ToA) of a signal transmitted from the RFID tag, an attenuation of the signal, a direction of arrival (DoA) of the signal, and a time difference of arrival (TDoA) of the signal.

Abstract
Provided are to a real-time RFID location determination system for accurately determining a location of a mobile object using radio frequency identification (RFID) in real-time, a method thereof, and a method for installing a wireless repeater such as a RFID reader or a RFID reader and an access point (AP) using the same. The location determination system includes: a wireless repeater for identifying a radio frequency identification (RFID) tag by communicating with the RFID tag attached or installed at a target object to determine a location thereof, wherein the wireless repeater is installed a urban facility and a location of the target object is determined based on a coordinate of a corresponding urban facility as a reference point.
