[0033] The present invention provides a logistics package tracking method, device, equipment and storage medium integrated with RFID and the Internet of Things. The present invention first periodically issues information collection instructions according to a preset data collection scheme to obtain continuously updated logistics transportation data, and the logistics transportation data includes data information from RFID electronic tags and positioning systems; then decodes and extracts the logistics transportation data to obtain key information including ID codes and location information; finally, by adopting a package positioning model, the location of the package is accurately predicted according to the key information. The present invention combines RFID and Internet of Things technologies to improve the convenience and efficiency of logistics data collection, and enables the location of packages to be tracked during automobile transportation, and analyzes and calculates the data in combination with the package positioning model to obtain more accurate location information.

[0034] The terms "first", "second", "third", "fourth", etc. (if any) in the specification and claims of the present invention and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchanged where appropriate, so that the embodiments described herein can be implemented in an order other than that illustrated or described herein. In addition, the terms "including" or "having" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions, for example, a process, method, system, product or device that includes a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units that are clearly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not clearly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or devices.

[0035] For ease of understanding, the specific process of the embodiment of the present invention is described below. It should be noted that the relevant steps of obtaining user personal information in the present invention are all performed with the user's authorization.

[0036] See also Figure 1 The first embodiment of the logistics package tracking method integrating RFID and the Internet of Things in the embodiment of the present invention includes:

[0037] S101. Periodically issuing information collection instructions according to a preset data collection scheme to obtain continuously updated logistics and transportation data, the logistics and transportation data including data information from RFID electronic tags and positioning systems;

[0038] As an automatic identification technology, RFID technology has the advantages of non-contact, long-distance identification and batch reading compared to traditional barcode systems. When it is combined with Internet of Things technology, it can improve the efficiency of data collection and better track logistics packages.

[0039] Specifically, an RFID reader can be installed on the transport vehicle and associated with the vehicle-mounted locator. During the transportation process, the reader automatically collects the RFID electronic tag data of the package in the vehicle under the information collection instruction, and the positioning system simultaneously collects the location information of the vehicle. These data will be associated and sent to the system together, so that the location information of the package can be obtained in real time during the transportation process. Since RFID technology does not require manual scanning, automatic batch collection of data can be completed even when the vehicle is driving.

[0040] S102. Decode and extract the logistics transportation data to obtain key information, the key information including ID code and location information;

[0041] The decoded RFID data can be integrated with other data in the logistics and transportation management system to form a complete logistics information chain. These data include the ID code, location information, transportation status, etc. of the package, which are crucial for logistics companies. By analyzing these data, companies can understand the bottlenecks and problems in the transportation process, optimize transportation routes and plans, and improve transportation efficiency and service quality. By decoding and extracting key information, the core data in the logistics and transportation process can be quickly located, reducing the need to process a large amount of non-critical data, thereby improving the overall data processing efficiency. The ID code is the unique number of the corresponding package in the RFID system, which is associated with a specific vehicle or transportation node through the ID code, which enables managers to easily track and identify each link in the logistics and transportation process.

[0042] S103. Pre-build a package positioning model, and use the package positioning model to accurately predict the location of the package based on the key information.

[0043] Using the package location model to predict the location of the package can further improve the accuracy of the package location, allowing customers and logistics companies to obtain the location of the package in real time. Specifically, customers can view the transportation status and predicted arrival time of the package in real time through mobile applications or web pages. This transparency reduces customer anxiety and increases trust in logistics companies. In addition, by predicting the location of the package, logistics companies can dispatch transportation vehicles more intelligently to ensure maximum vehicle efficiency and reduce idle driving and waiting time.

[0044] The RFID and Internet of Things integrated logistics package tracking method provided by the present invention realizes real-time tracking of packages during transportation by combining RFID technology and Internet of Things technology, solving the current problem that the package can only be tracked online to the point where it arrives at a network point, but the transportation location cannot be known in real time, allowing customers and enterprises to track the transportation of packages in a timely manner.

[0045] See also Figure 2 The second embodiment of the logistics package tracking method integrating RFID and the Internet of Things in the embodiment of the present invention includes:

[0046] S201. Build a data collection program, set the frequency, node and type of information collection instructions, the types of information collection instructions include RFID electronic tag data acquisition instructions and positioning system data acquisition instructions;

[0047] Specifically, different frequencies can be set for different types of packages. For example, for high-value items, a higher data acquisition frequency can be set, such as obtaining data every minute or every five minutes, to ensure real-time tracking and monitoring. For low-value items, a lower data acquisition frequency can be set, such as obtaining data once an hour or a day, to reduce system burden and energy consumption. In addition, it can also be set to obtain data after the transport vehicle arrives at a network point, transfer station or special geographical location (node). For example, when the package arrives at an important location or passes through a sensitive area, the company can obtain and process relevant information in a timely manner to ensure the safe delivery of the package.

[0048] When building a data collection plan, you need to set the frequency, nodes, and types of information collection instructions according to actual needs, and take corresponding measures to ensure data security, accuracy, and system stability.

[0049] S202. Issue an RFID electronic tag data acquisition instruction according to a preset frequency and node to obtain data information from the RFID electronic tag;

[0050] S203. Issue a positioning system data acquisition instruction according to the preset issuance frequency and node to obtain data information of the positioning system associated with the package.

[0051] By setting high-frequency data acquisition instructions, real-time tracking and monitoring of packages can be achieved. Real-time data can help companies promptly discover and deal with problems such as package delays, loss or errors, improve operational efficiency and customer satisfaction. The data provided by the positioning system can help companies understand the real-time location and status of packages, thereby optimizing resource allocation. For example, companies can reasonably dispatch vehicles and personnel based on the location and estimated arrival time of the package, reduce empty driving and waiting time, and reduce costs.

[0052] See also Figure 3 The third embodiment of the logistics package tracking method integrating RFID and the Internet of Things in the embodiment of the present invention includes:

[0053] S301. Decode the data information from the RFID electronic tag according to the coding rules, and perform data verification and error correction to obtain decoded data, extract the ID code and the reader number information of the electronic tag from the decoded data, and use the ID code and the reader number information of the electronic tag as the electronic tag reading position information;

[0054] RFID systems usually use specific coding rules to transmit data. Therefore, after receiving the radio frequency signal sent by the RFID tag, it is first converted into a digital signal, and then the digital signal is decoded according to the known coding rules. Due to the possible noise, interference or signal attenuation during the transmission process, the decoded data may contain errors. Therefore, data verification and error correction are required.

[0055] Verification usually involves checking the integrity of the data, such as using methods such as checksums or cyclic redundancy checks (CRCs). Checksums are implemented by performing a specific operation (such as addition) on each byte in the data and storing the result. The receiver can perform the same operation on the received data and compare the result with the checksum provided by the sender to verify the integrity of the data.

[0056] If there are errors in the data, these errors can be identified and corrected by error correction algorithms such as Hamming codes, convolutional codes, etc. Error correction algorithms usually add additional redundant information to the data so that errors can be detected and corrected at the receiving end.

[0057] S302. Converting the data information from the positioning system to obtain locator data, the locator data including the locator number, the locator position information, and the code reader number information associated with the locator number;

[0058] S303. Associate the electronic tag reading location information with the locator data to obtain the key information.

[0059] By associating the electronic tag reading location information with the locator data, it can be ensured that the real-time data of the locator can be bound to the ID code and the reader number information of the electronic tag. During the package transportation process, the package will undergo multiple transfers, enter multiple outlets for distribution, and be transported by different vehicles. Different outlets and vehicles will have their own locators and readers. Therefore, each time the location information is sent to the system, it is necessary to include the time, ID code, electronic tag reader number, locator number, locator location information and other data to avoid data confusion.

[0060] See also Figure 4 The fourth embodiment of the logistics package tracking method integrating RFID and the Internet of Things in the embodiment of the present invention includes:

[0061] S401. Obtain the historical location data of the electronic tag, and pre-process the historical location data of the electronic tag to obtain a model training set;

[0062] By preprocessing the electronic tag historical location data, the format of the electronic tag historical location data can be unified, and erroneous or duplicate data therein can be removed, so that the data can be recognized by the model.

[0063] S402. Taking the convolutional graph neural network ConvGNN as the basic model, the convolutional graph neural network ConvGNN is trained using the model training set to obtain a package positioning model;

[0064] S403. Input the key information into the package positioning model to predict the precise location of the package.

[0065] ConvGNN significantly reduces the amount of computation in the network through local connections and parameter sharing. Local connections mean that each neural unit is only connected to some neural units in the previous layer, thereby reducing the complexity of the network. Parameter sharing allows the same set of parameters to be reused in different locations, further reducing the amount of computation. These features enable ConvGNN to give results faster when predicting the location of packages, improving the prediction speed.

[0066] Specifically, for example, during transportation, the vehicle will pass through different areas where the signal may be poor, causing the system to be unable to obtain the vehicle location information in a timely manner. For example, when passing through a tunnel, the data cannot be sent in time, or the positioning of the locator is not accurate enough, and there may be certain deviations. For another example, since data collection is carried out at intervals, the transport vehicle is in a state of continuous movement, so the location information viewed may be lagging. The use of the package positioning model can further predict the location of the package based on the existing data, thereby obtaining a more accurate location information.

[0067] See also Figure 5 The fifth embodiment of the logistics package tracking method integrating RFID and the Internet of Things in the embodiment of the present invention includes:

[0068] S501. Taking the convolutional graph neural network ConvGNN as the basic model, the convolutional graph neural network ConvGNN is trained using the model training set to obtain a preliminary model;

[0069] S502. Set an automatic iteration plan, regularly obtain the latest logistics and transportation data according to the automatic iteration plan, and integrate the latest logistics and transportation data into the model training set to obtain a first training set;

[0070] The automatic iteration solution can ensure that the data in the model training set is the latest and most accurate. Logistics and transportation data changes rapidly. Through regular updates, the model can better reflect the actual situation of current logistics and transportation. Regular integration of the latest logistics and transportation data can reduce model prediction errors caused by outdated or biased data. This helps to improve the accuracy of the model's prediction of logistics and transportation status. By regularly adding the latest data to the first training set and ultimately using it for model training, the model can be continuously optimized to promote the intelligent and automated development of the logistics industry.

[0071] S503. Set a valid time range for the data, remove the logistics and transportation data that do not meet the requirements in the first training set according to the valid time range, and obtain a second training set;

[0072] S504. Use the second training set to train and iterate the preliminary model to obtain a continuously updated package positioning model.

[0073] Specifically, for example, the logistics transportation data from one or two years ago can be removed from the first training set. With the continuous advancement of technology and the continuous updating of routes, the data from a few years ago may have been in line with the existing transportation environment and conditions. By removing outdated data, it can ensure that the constructed package positioning model is more in line with today's reality, making the prediction results more accurate.

[0074] Setting up an automatic iteration plan and regularly obtaining the latest logistics and transportation data based on the plan, and then integrating this data into the model training set can significantly improve the accuracy and efficiency of the logistics model, enhance the adaptability of the model, and promote the intelligent development of the logistics industry.

[0075] See also Figure 6 The sixth embodiment of the logistics package tracking method integrating RFID and the Internet of Things in the embodiment of the present invention includes:

[0076] S601. Obtain key information, and obtain corresponding first geographic information from the GIS geographic information system according to the locator location information in the key information;

[0077] In order to increase the accuracy of positioning, the first geographic information can be further introduced, which can reflect the geographic information of the location, such as basic altitude information, air pressure, etc. GIS can use the longitude and latitude and other location information provided by the locator to accurately mark the location of the target object on the map. By continuously obtaining the location information of the locator, GIS can track the movement trajectory of the target object in real time, providing strong support for dynamic monitoring.

[0078] S602. Preprocessing the first geographic information to obtain second geographic information;

[0079] S603. Input the key information and the second geographic information into the package positioning model to predict the precise location of the package;

[0080] S604. Obtain weather forecast information, use a transportation time prediction model, and estimate the arrival time based on the key information, precise location, and weather forecast information.

[0081] GIS can integrate meteorological, geological and other multi-source data, combined with locator location information, to warn and assess potential disaster risks, and calculate the time it takes for vehicles to pass through the area through a transportation time prediction model combined with specific weather conditions, geographic location and vehicle conditions, thereby calculating the estimated arrival time. By comprehensively considering multiple on-site factors, a more accurate cargo arrival time can be predicted.

[0082] See also Figure 7 The seventh embodiment of the logistics package tracking method integrating RFID and the Internet of Things in the embodiment of the present invention includes:

[0083] S701. Calculate the city where the package is located according to the precise location, and obtain the first weather information related to the city where the package is located;

[0084] S702. Obtain a pre-established transport route, calculate the remaining transit cities based on the transport route and the city where the package is located, and obtain the second weather information based on the remaining transit cities;

[0085] Weather conditions can have a serious impact on the delivery of packages. For example, rainy days, sandstorms, and snowy days can have different effects on the speed of trucks. By obtaining weather information about the city where the package is currently located and the cities it will pass through in the future, the speed of the truck can be better predicted, thereby obtaining a more accurate estimated arrival time for the package.

[0086] S703. Obtain historical transportation data, including historical transportation routes, transit cities and transportation time, and use historical transportation data and historical weather information to train a machine learning model to obtain a transportation time prediction model;

[0087] Preferably, the historical transportation data may also include historical weather data. Weather data is closely related to historical transportation routes, transit cities and transportation time, and is also a key factor affecting transportation time. By training the machine learning model with the above multiple important influencing factors, a transportation time prediction model with better performance can be obtained.

[0088] S704. Input the pre-established transportation route, the city where the package is located, the first weather information and the second weather information into the transportation time estimation model to obtain the estimated arrival time.

[0089] By inputting the package's transportation route, the city where the package is located, the first weather information and the second weather information into the transportation time prediction model, the weather conditions that the package may encounter during transportation can be calculated, and the transportation time can be further calculated, thereby calculating the estimated arrival time. By combining multiple influencing factors for calculation, the data obtained has a higher reference value.
