“…Factors such as node density, antenna type, and frequency used can also impact the accuracy of the system. As a result, active RFID technology may not provide sub-meter-level precise accuracy of the positioning system, but it is still popular due to its low cost, ease of implementation, miniaturize size, and low power consumption [ 60 , 61 ].…”

The integration of the physical and digital world has become increasingly important, and location-based services have become the most sought-after application in the field of the Internet of Things (IoT). This paper delves into the current research on ultra-wideband (UWB) indoor positioning systems (IPS). It begins by examining the most common wireless communication-based technologies for IPSs followed by a detailed explanation of UWB. Then, it presents an overview of the unique characteristics of UWB technology and the challenges still faced by the IPS implementation. Finally, the paper evaluates the advantages and limitations of using machine learning algorithms for UWB IPS.

“…Therefore, RFID, as a passive detection method, perfectly addresses this issue. For example, RFID tags are installed on traffic signs such that any vehicle with RFID readers can interrogate sign status and update the cloud server as the vehicle moves [6,13,16].…”

“…We propose a more efficient and extensible approach for traffic sign detection for inventory management-encoding traffic rules within RFID tags. These tags can then be interrogated by passing vehicles, which can transmit related information to a cloud server for real-time inventory updates [13,6].…”

The EPC GEN 2 communication protocol for Ultrahigh frequency Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) has offered a promising avenue for advancing the intelligence of transportation infrastructure. With the capability of linking vehicles to RFID readers to crowdsource information from RFID tags on road infrastructures, the RF-enhanced road infrastructure (REI) can potentially transform data acquisition for urban transportation. Despite its potential, the broader adoption of RFID technologies in building intelligent roads has been limited by a deficiency in understanding how the GEN 2 protocol impacts system performance under different transportation settings. This paper fills this knowledge gap by presenting the system architecture and detailing the design challenges associated with REI. Comprehensive real-world experiments are conducted to assess REI's effectiveness across various urban contexts. The results yield crucial insights into the optimal design of on-vehicle RFID readers and on-road RFID tags, considering the constraints imposed by vehicle dynamics, road geometries, and tag placements. With the optimized designs of encoding schemes for reader-tag communication and on-vehicle antennas, REI is able to fulfill the requirements of traffic sign inventory management and environmental monitoring while falling short of catering to the demand for high-speed navigation. In particular, the Miller 2 encoding scheme strikes the best balance between reading performance (e.g., throughput) and noise tolerance for the multipath effect. Additionally, we show that the on-vehicle antenna should be oriented to maximize the available time for reading on-road tags, although it may reduce the received power by the tags in the forward link.

“…Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology has been proven cost-effective and successful in a variety of domains. Its applications extend from supply chain [2], traffic signage inventory management [3], in health care [4], [5], wildlife research [6], smart agriculture [7], smart homes [8], vehicle localization and tracking [9], [10], to its evolution in logistics field and other industry 4.0 applications [11], [12]. RFID technology can be an effective and adequate solution for smart parking systems since it has been employed in various disciplines to identify and detect objects.…”
