M. Tech. Electrical Engineering. / This study is dedicated to the investigation of different methodologies used to determine the location of a beacon type active radio frequency identification device (RFID). Also included in the study is the hardware implementation of a system based on the angle of arrival location method, which makes use of array theory and angle of arrival techniques to identify the angle of the impinging tag transmission. In order to address the complex issues of array theory and linear array structures, a large part of the study is devoted to antennae, antenna arrays and the radiation patterns regarding the latter.
