Abstract
System and method for determining a location of a tag are disclosed. The system comprises a mobile tag, sensors, and a controller. The mobile tag determines a first location within a structure that includes multiple second locations. The sensors are positioned at different locations of the structure and sense a structure condition. The controller determines possible paths of the mobile tag within the structure. Next, the controller generates a first set of weighted likelihoods of the mobile tag being located at each second location based on the possible paths and distances between the first location and the multiple second locations. The controller also generates a second set of weighted likelihoods of the mobile tag being located at each second location based on the structure condition. The controller then determines a location of the mobile tag within the structure based on the first and second sets of weighted likelihoods.
