Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2008/053578
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
An RFID group storage section (40) stores an RFID group structure. The RFID group structure is a data structure of a set of RFIDs and is hierarchically structured by associating the location and time read from an RFID tag with RFID-related information in each of the RFIDs, by classifying the RFIDs depending on the readout location and further classified depending on the readout time. A proximity degree evaluating section (80) evaluates the degree of proximity between an RFID set of a first user and an RFID set of a second user. A user classification section (82) classifies the first user and the second user into the same group if the proximity degree is smaller than a predetermined threshold value.
