RFID-based single-layer warehouse forklift positioning system

Abstract

An RFID-based single-layer warehouse forklift positioning system is characterized by consisting of RFID electronic tags, an RFID antenna, an RFID reader, an RFID information processing device and a positioning server which are connected in sequence. The invention has the beneficial effects of being capable of achieving position monitoring of a mobile forklift in a single-layer warehouse in a low-cost and high-efficiency manner, and solving the problem in real-time monitoring of a transportation medium in the logistics transportation industry. As the positioning medium is the RFID reader, when an area in need of positioning is large, only the installation of more RFID tags is needed, and the equipment cost can be greatly reduced; and the RFID reader and the RFID information processing device are powered by a forklift battery and are in communication with external systems using wireless networks, so the structure of the forklift may not be changed and the implementation is facilitated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of warehousing and logistics, in particular to a positioning system and method for warehousing and logistics transportation equipment. Background technique [0002] With the continuous advancement of science and technology, traditional manual warehouses can no longer meet the needs of the growing warehousing and logistics industry, and more and more digital warehouse management systems are being mentioned. Forklifts play an important role in modern warehouses. How to modernize forklifts has become a hot spot in the current warehousing industry. [0003] RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technology, also known as radio frequency identification, is a communication technology that can identify specific targets and read and write related data through radio frequency signals without establishing mechanical or optical contact between the identification system and specific targets. [0004] In the ordinary dig...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

The verification of the cargo space basically stays at the entrance and exit of the warehouse to install the reader for identification. However, after the traditional cargo space enters the warehouse with the forklift, whether it is placed in the position required by the system is manually filled. Yes, there is a lack of a reliable supervision and verification mechanism

Some units have done forklift positioning before, but basically they stick RFID tags on forklifts, and RFID readers are erected in some occasions that need positioning. However, due to the relatively high cost of RFID readers, construction and installation are difficult. , The reading distance is limited, the positioning accuracy is limited, and it is difficult to meet the requirements
