【 摘 要 】

The problem of clustering in networks of RFID readers in particular and active sensors in general is addressed using techniques from sensor data fusion. Two algorithms are provided that are simple and do not need extensive computation. For smaller networks these algorithms can be implemented without any computational assistance. The constraints these algorithms place on the time scheduling of readers in the network are discussed. 8 Pages
