Funded Activity Summary

A Spatially-Aware RFID-enhanced Sensor Network. Using radio frequency identity (RFID) tags to revolutionise sensor network technologies has the potential to have wide ranging impacts on many of Australia's key industries, including precision agriculture, health care and habitat monitoring (e.g., bush fires). This fundamental research will create a new type of communication network that will have tremendous impact by allowing monitoring and tracking technologies to be deployed over large, infrastructure-free areas at nominal cost. By contributing to the solution of the cost and complexity problems that limit practical deployment of sensor networks, we hope help Australia become a global leader in realizing real-world benefits from information communication technologies.
