Active RFID Based Indoor Localization

By  May 11, 2020  1 comment
Abstract:
Indoor localization of staff and patients based on radio frequency identification (RFID) technology has promising potential application in the healthcare sector. The use of an active RFID in real-time indoor positioning system without any sacrifice of localization accuracy is intended to provide security, guidance and support service to patients. In this paper maximum likelihood estimation along with its Cramer-Rao lower bound of the locations of active RFID tags are presented by exploring the received signal strength indicator which is collected at the readers. The performance of real-time localization system is implemented by using an extended Kalman filter (EKF).

Quickest Detection of Abnormal Vehicle Movements on Highways

By  May 10, 2020  4 comments
Abstract:
 The quest to develop self-driving vehicles remain an active research topic. A self-driving vehicle on a highway employs numerous sensors to track the state of its surrounding vehicles. Considering the proximity of surrounding vehicles, it is critical to detect their unusual maneuvers as quickly as possible, especially when autonomous vehicles operate among human-operated traffic. In this paper, we present an approach to quickly detect lane-changing maneuvers of a nearby vehicle. The proposed algorithm is based on the optimal likelihood ratio test, known as Page test. The proposed approach is presented in the form of a novel process model to be employed by autonomous vehicles. In addition to traditional states, such as position and velocity, the proposed process model adds two additional states of a surrounding vehicle being monitored: the lane-index (LIDX) and the lane-change-index (LcIDX). Then we present an approach to keep these two indices up to date in the quickest possible manner through the proposed Page test based algorithm.
