Abstract
In this paper, MUSE, an algorithm enabled by backscattering tag-to-tag network (BTTN) is presented to accomplish simultaneous 2-D localization of large-scale (10 m × 10 m) massive (20<inline-formula><tex-math notation="LaTeX">$\sim$</tex-math><alternatives><mml:math><mml:mo>∼</mml:mo></mml:math><inline-graphic xlink:href="ma-ieq1-3030039.gif"/></alternatives></inline-formula>50) passive UHF RFIDs. In BTTNs, the most intractable problem is the high-frequency loss of range measurements. In a particular case of 30 tags to be located with maximum communication range being 3 m, the rate is nearly up to 85.75 percent. In the proposed framework, we utilize relevant knowledge in the theory of graphs to obtain underlying subsets in which tags can communicate with each other and then assemble them stage by stage to achieve overall localization. Theoretical analysis shows that multistage assembly imparts extraordinary characteristics to MUSE: Assembling rectifies fragment maps given some condition, and in later stages prevents errors flowing down into the next stage. Experimental analysis shows that the condition is easy to satisfy. Furthermore, an analytical expression for the Cramér-Rao lower bound is also derived as a benchmark to evaluate the localization performance. Extensive simulations demonstrate that MUSE outperforms existing algorithms for simultaneous localization.
