Can Wireless Sensor Network based Real-time Location Systems triumph over WLAN+RFID based RTLS?
User Rating: / 1
Written by Chintu Parikh   
Most of the RTLS implementations today use active RFID tags and require wireless LAN coverage for the operating area.  Moreover, RF fingerprinting is the most popular technique used for real-time location tracking today. WSN based real-time location systems also utilize RF Fingerprinting technique as a WLAN/RFID based system but have some unique characteristics that I think might make WSN based RTLS a much better alternative than their WLAN based counterpart. Refer to this link to understand how location tracking works with wireless sensor networks.
