Title
Indoor localization system for first responders in emergency scenario
Abstract
Recently, wireless indoor location systems have been successfully used in many applications, such as asset tracking, indoor navigation, and inventory management. Such systems become essential in Public Safety and Disaster Relief (PSDR) scenarios, where a robust and reliable first responder positioning system can significantly increase safety in emergency operations. In this paper, we characterize the performance of a RFID-based indoor localization system. We present various tests aimed at assessing the capability of the ILS to identify first responders in different conditions. Results show that, by means of a correct dimensioning of the ILS, high efficiency can be achieved in localization.
