[0048] Example 1

[0049] Reference Figure 1~Figure 2 , which is the first embodiment of the present invention, and provides a method for detecting the moving direction of an RFID tag based on power storage detection, comprising:

[0050] S1: Deploy multi-antenna arrays in warehouse environments to ensure maximum coverage and signal strength.

[0051] S1.1: Determine the main cargo stacking locations and structures within the storage environment, set up multiple layout points, and mark each layout point as a reference point.

[0052] S1.2: Calculate the optimal antenna spacing D based on the distance between the reference points and the antenna characteristics. The calculation process is as follows:

[0053] First, calculate the signal coverage radius based on the antenna's transmit power P and gain G:

[0054] ,

[0055] in, is the environmental loss constant;

[0056] To ensure that there are no blind spots between antennas and minimize signal overlap, the recommended value of the antenna spacing D should be within the signal coverage radius r:

[0057] ,

[0058] in, To adjust the coefficient, ensure maximum signal coverage; ensure that there are no blind spots between each antenna and avoid excessive signal overlap.

[0059] S1.3: Arrange antenna units at each reference point and adjust the direction angle α of each antenna to optimize the signal coverage range, wherein the direction angle α is preliminarily determined based on confirmation by professionals.

[0060] S1.4: Test the signal receiving strength of each antenna unit after deployment, determine the signal attenuation area through the received signal strength data RSSI, and adjust the antenna angle α or add additional antenna units to optimize coverage.

[0061] Specifically, each antenna unit is arranged to record the real-time received signal strength data RSSI, and to construct a signal strength distribution diagram, and to locate the low signal strength area according to the change of the signal strength data RSSI value.

[0062] In areas of low signal strength, the antenna's directional angle α is readjusted to maximize the signal strength in the target area; and after confirming the signal blind spot, additional antenna units are added and the α angle of the new antenna units is adjusted to cover the attenuation area to form the final multi-antenna array.

[0063] It should be noted that each antenna unit includes an independent antenna.

[0064] S1.5: Record the final position coordinates of each antenna and direction angle α, and use them as reference parameters for initial signal reception.

[0065] S2: Perform real-time RFID signal reception and monitor the signal strength data and angle difference received by each antenna to capture preliminary movement information of the RFID tag.

[0066] S2.1: Each antenna synchronously receives the signal transmitted by the RFID tag and marks the received raw signal data as a signal set S.

[0067] S2.2: Extract the signal strength data RSSI and signal arrival timestamp T in the signal set S to capture the power level and arrival time of the signal when it is received to form a data set.

[0068] S2.3: Calculate the angle difference of the signal received by each antenna based on the data set of each antenna, where the angle difference is used to analyze the preliminary directional characteristics of the movement of the RFID tag. The specific calculation process is as follows:

[0069] Calculate the signal arrival time difference :

[0070] ,

[0071] According to the signal arrival time difference , calculate the corresponding angle difference :

[0072] ,

[0075] It should be noted that the angle difference between the antennas It indicates the difference in the path of the signal reaching each antenna when the RFID tag is in different positions. This is used to determine the initial movement direction of the RFID tag.

[0076] S2.4: Continuously monitor the changes in the real-time signal strength data RSSI and angle difference received by each antenna, dynamically update the change trends of the signal strength data RSSI and angle difference values, and record these change data as real-time monitoring data sets during the movement of the RFID tag.

[0079] Specifically, the signal arrival timestamp T and the corresponding signal strength data RSSI received by each antenna are collected;

[0080] Plot signal strength data RSSI over time to identify significant attenuation or changes;

[0081] Use the coordinates of each antenna The possible signal path and reflection direction are determined by the signal direction angle, and the location of the reflection source is inferred based on the physical environment (such as shelves, metal walls, etc.).

[0082] Furthermore, the direct path length of the signal from the RFID tag to the antenna is:

[0083] ,

[0084] Assuming that the signal is reflected by some reflection sources (such as shelves or metal walls), the propagation path of the signal will change, forming a reflection path. The direction angle of the antenna affects the propagation path of the reflected signal. Therefore, the length of the reflection path can be expressed as:

[0085] ,

[0086] in, is the direct path length of the signal from the RFID tag to the antenna, is the signal path length including reflections, is the RFID tag location coordinate, including the additional delay of the reflection path, is the coordinate of the inferred reflection point, indicating the reflection source of the signal.

[0087] S3.2: By calculating the path increment To mark the reflected signal, forming an interference mark set , used to mark the reflection signal.

[0088] It should be noted that in a multipath propagation environment, in addition to the direct path, RFID signals will also be reflected by reflective surfaces (such as walls, metal shelves, etc.), thus forming multiple signal paths. In order to identify and mark these reflected signals, the path increment can be calculated to determine whether there is multipath reflection and classify it as an interference signal.

[0089] Among them, the path increment The calculation of is as follows:

[0090] ,

[0091] in, is the path increment, which is used to identify the characteristics of the reflected signal; if the path increment Greater than the preset threshold , then the signal is considered to be a reflection signal and marked as an interference signal; otherwise, the signal is considered to be a direct path signal and not a reflection signal; for each identified reflection signal, it is added to the interference mark set.

[0092] S3.3: Based on the interference tag set , use a filtering algorithm (such as Kalman filtering or adaptive filtering) to remove the reflected signal, retain the main signal path, and form a filtered signal set S'.

[0093] The filter can process real-time signal data and remove interference signals to enhance signal stability and clarity.

[0094] S3.4: Recalculate the angle difference of each antenna for the filtered signal set S' , re-extract signal strength data And calculate the stability index to ensure the accuracy of the data after signal processing.

[0095] The stability index is calculated as follows:

[0096] ,

[0097] in, is the number of data points of the signal set S'; After filtering The average value of Below the preset threshold and the angle difference If the stability index is higher than the preset threshold, the signal is considered unstable and the signal set S' is refiltered until the signal is clear and stable.

[0098] S4: Dynamically predict the movement direction of the RFID tag based on the optimized signal.

[0099] S4.1: Determine the moving direction of the RFID tag according to the final signal set S' output in step S3.

[0100] Specifically, the signal path lengths of different antennas are combined Determine the relative position coordinate changes of RFID tags , , preliminarily infer the moving direction, the formula can be expressed as:

[0101] ,

[0102] ,

[0103] ,

[0104] in, , are the relative position changes in the horizontal and vertical directions, is the path length of the signal received by antenna 1 and antenna 2, is the path length of the signal received by antenna 1 and antenna 3, is the moving direction angle of the tag relative to the reference coordinate system. The lateral displacement of the tag on the plane is calculated by the path difference and the predetermined antenna spacing, combined with the time difference of signal arrival and the path length.

[0105] S4.2: Perform trajectory smoothing on the initially determined moving direction, integrate the continuous position changes of multiple frame signals, correct the direction deviation caused by environmental noise or interference, and obtain a stable moving direction.

[0106] Specifically, use sliding average or Kalman filtering to smooth the trajectory:

[0107] ,

[0108] ,

[0109] ,

[0110] in, and is the horizontal and vertical position change after smoothing, n is the number of frames used for smoothing, k is the summation index, It is the stable motion direction after trajectory smoothing.

[0111] After processing multiple frames of data It is the movement direction after multiple position updates, removal of noise and short-term interference. Through smoothing, the movement direction can more stably represent the actual movement trend of the tag in the storage environment and avoid directional deviation caused by environmental interference and reflection effects.

[0112] S5: Generate and output the detection results, update the system log, and ensure the complete record of the direction detection information.

[0113] The moving direction after trajectory smoothing is recorded and output as the final direction output result of warehouse detection, and stored in the system log for subsequent analysis.

[0116] This embodiment also provides a storage medium having a computer program stored thereon, which, when executed by a processor, implements the method for detecting the moving direction of an RFID tag based on power storage detection as proposed in the above embodiment.

[0117] In summary, the present invention effectively reduces the influence of environmental noise and reflection effects on RFID tag direction detection by optimizing the signal processing method, thereby providing a more accurate and reliable storage RFID tag movement direction detection solution.

[0118] Example 2

[0119] Referring to Table 1 and Table 2, which is the second embodiment of the present invention, this embodiment provides a method for detecting the moving direction of RFID tags based on power storage detection. In order to verify the beneficial effects of the present invention, scientific demonstration is carried out through simulation experiments.

[0120] The experiment was conducted in a standardized warehouse environment with multiple shelves and metal structures, and there were many interference signals.

[0121] First, a multi-antenna array was deployed. Each antenna unit was placed at a predetermined reference point to cover the entire storage area. The interval D between the reference points was calculated based on the environmental loss constant and antenna gain parameters to ensure that there were no blind spots.

[0122] In the experiment, each antenna unit adjusted the directional angle α, and located and resolved the low signal strength area by recording and adjusting the signal reception strength RSSI. After the adjustment was completed, a multi-antenna array was formed, and the position and angle of each antenna was recorded.

[0123] Each antenna receives the signal transmitted by the RFID tag, extracts the RSSI and timestamp T data set, calculates the time difference, and infers the angle difference to identify the preliminary movement direction of the RFID tag.

[0124] To ensure data accuracy, Kalman filtering is used to remove reflected interference signals, mark interference signals and perform filtering optimization.

[0125] Finally, the signal arrival time difference and path increment are combined to predict the movement direction of the RFID tag, and the trajectory is smoothed using the sliding average method to generate the final detection result. Some experimental data are as follows:

[0126] Table 1 Original signal dataset S

[0129] Parameters\Test objects Antenna 1-RSSI' (dBm) Antenna 2-RSSI' (dBm) Antenna 3-RSSI' (dBm) Timestamp - T1' (ms) Timestamp - T2' (ms) Timestamp - T3' (ms) Sample 1 -49 -51 -54 101 103 105 Sample 2 -47 -50 -53 106 108 111 Sample 3 -46 -49 -52 116 119 121 Sample 4 -48 -52 -55 131 133 136 Sample 5 -50 -53 -56 141 144 146 Sample 6 -51 -54 -57 151 154 156

[0130] It can be seen from the experimental data Tables 1 and 2 that after the filtering algorithm is processed, the RSSI value and timestamp T of the signal received by each antenna unit are improved. For example, the RSSI received by antenna 1 of sample 1 is improved from -50 dBm to -49 dBm, and the stability of the timestamp is also enhanced, which indicates that the signal path is more of a direct path rather than a reflected path.

[0131] In the analysis of RSSI values ​​and timestamps, the processed data showed reduced signal fluctuations, indicating that the stability of RFID signals has been significantly improved through interference optimization and filtering algorithms.

[0132] It can be inferred that the designed detection method effectively reduces multipath reflection and noise interference in the actual environment, and realizes the accurate detection of the moving direction of the RFID tag.

[0133] Compared with the existing technology, the present invention significantly reduces the signal distortion and direction deviation problems caused by environmental factors, improves the accuracy and stability of the detection results, and optimizes the antenna angle and position layout, combined with real-time data processing and interference filtering technology, so that the system can achieve efficient and stable RFID movement direction detection in complex warehousing environments.

[0134] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present invention may be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention, which should all be included in the scope of the claims of the present invention.
