Abstract
We evaluated the Multispectral Solutions, Inc. RFID system in
several experiments to assess its utility in tracking animals as
they move around their habitat. The system consists of tags
which transmit a signal and receivers which use this signal to
determine the location of the tag. Our results indicate that this
system, as it currently exists, does not provide sufficient accuracy
or precision to be able to track animals in their noisy and
cluttered environment.
