RFID network planning is a hard optimization problem. In the paper, a particle（PSO） with cloud generators is introduced for optimizing RFID network. In the algorithm’s offspring generation scheme, new particles are generated in the cloud way or in the PSO way .①The cognitive population of PSO is firstly used to estimate Expectation, Entropy and Super-entropy of good solution regions by backward cloud gen-erator. ②And then the estimated Expectation, Entropy and Super-entropy are used to by positive cloud generator.③Both local information from PSO particles and the global particles are used to guide the next search. The proposed algorithm is applied RFID network benchmark instances used in the literature. The experimental results show that the algorithm hasbetter search ability than original PSO in the benchmark instances.
