Abstract
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is one of the most recent technologies being deployed in many industry and organization such as hospital nowadays. World depends on it to do the tracking and tracing objects. RFID tools like tag and reader can be programmed to track and trace the object at the moment.
This project actually is Location Tracking System, which is one of the application that introducing by RFID system. This system used Real Time Location System (RLTS) concept to find the location and coordinate of the objects at the moment. To determine the location and coordinates (x,y) for the tag, the reader is decided as the origin, (0,0). This system also used Visual Basic 6.0 software as programming software to display any result on the screen.
Mantis II (433MHz) Active Reader used as reader in this project. This reader functionally at frequency 433MHz, so that the tag that used also the active tag which also functionally at frequency 433MHz. This system didn‟t operate properly because the algorithm should be improved.
