System Evaluation of RFID-Based User Localization

Nowadays, people tracking in crowded events becomes very important in terms of monitor, security, and managing the crowd to reduce the chances of overcrowding's accidents. Many techniques are used to localize the user in outdoor environments like mobile networks, Wi-Fi and RFID. This paper used the RFID to localize the users in the crowded specific areas, which are used for special events. The user information along with its location is sent to the cloud server using Wi-Fi Routers which are attached along the route. The results are compared with other methods to evaluate our proposed topology; by connecting an RFID Reader with other different topologies like Wi-MAX and UMTS. The results show that the proposed topology having better performance than others in terms of throughput. The purpose of this paper is to compare different topologies used to send data in a crowded area.
