Abstract
A system and method for real-time location detection consists of a scalable real time location system (RTLS). It provides revised real time object location determinations. It includes a tag within a location environment, a processor to calculate a location of the tag, and at least one exclusion zone in the environment. Processing includes an original location determination of the tag and a revised location determination of the tag. The revised location determination is calculated by applying attributes of at least one exclusion zone to the original location determination of the tag. Some exclusion zones are defined by no-fly exclusion zones. The revised location determination improves the operation of the RTLS by correcting for impossible and improbable original location determinations. For embodiments, system deployment consists of three phases: collection of training and testing data, network training and testing, and network adaptive maintenance.
