摘要: High-accuracy localization remains a much desired but elusive feature for passive radio transponders as used in radio-frequency identification (RFID). We believe that the principle of cognitive radar can overcome fundamental physical limitations hindering its implementation. propose to jointly employ narrowband interrogate and an adaptive (ultra) wideband backscatter target tracking actuating, sensing, learning environment. This paper explores system model key processing perception-action cycle steps such secondary radar. At core is cycle, which consists transmitter receiver-side environment models representing channel conditions Bayesian trackers states. Multipath exploited improve robustness make optimum use radar's sensing capabilities. Feedback information derived from Cramer-Rao lower bound on position error. Initial results are presented basic proof principle.
