Overview
This lecture will concentrate on a general description of RTLS. This will include an introduction into the general technologies used, and the implementation issues generally encountered. RTLS is much more than just tags and sensors and we will take a systems approach to understanding the topic.

Tags and Sensors
At base, location services rely on the tags and sensors used. There are many types already in use, and more are being developed. We will concentrate on those used in the healthcare environment. One of the most important aspects in healthcare is accuracy of location and we will address these issues as well.

Systems and Software
The tags and sensors are important, but they do not actually do the job by themselves. All of the data collected by the sensors are collected, stored and processed by multiple layers of software which allows a full picture of the collection of things being monitored to be given. This includes the instantaneous location of items as well as the management of them. This might include inventory management as well as cost management.

Implementation Issues
Applying location services in a healthcare environment is a major task. There are many considerations. These might include how to apply the tags and locate the sensors as well as security and management of the location services system as a whole. We will discuss these issues and work through some examples.
