Abstract
A system for locating RFID tags includes several RFID readers. A first RFID reader transmits a single RF signal at a particular time to a tag to be located. Each of the RFID readers receives a signal backscattered off the tag from the single RF signal that is transmitted by the first RFID reader. Each of the RFID readers extracts at least one measured position parameter from the signal backscattered off the tag. At least one RFID reader determines the location of the tag by using the measured position parameters extracted from the signal backscattered off the tag from the single RF signal transmitted at the particular time from the first RFID reader. All measured position parameters used in determining the location of the tag are extracted from the signal backscattered off the tag from the single transmission at the particular time from the first RFID reader.
