Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of baggage transportation monitoring, and more particularly to a method and system for monitoring the transportation of passenger baggage on inbound flights to and from airports. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of the air transport industry, airport baggage handling is facing increasing pressure. The efficiency of handling checked baggage for inbound flights significantly affects the overall efficiency of flight operations and airport operations. The timeliness and accuracy of baggage transportation can improve the passenger experience and increase passenger satisfaction. Therefore, the time it takes for passenger baggage to be delivered from the inbound flight gate to the baggage carousel is an important indicator for evaluating the efficiency of ground operations. On the other hand, in the current airport baggage transportation process, problems such as lost, misdelivered, and delayed baggage occur frequently, negatively impacting the passenger travel experience and causing additional operating costs and reputational damage to airlines and airports. To achieve monitoring of passenger baggage transportation for inbound flights, the following technical challenges need to be addressed: Full-process trajectory tracking is required. Existing technologies such as RFID cannot bind baggage to baggage carts (i.e., baggage trolleys), therefore, real-time location tracking during transfer is impossible, and it is also impossible to know important milestones such as the arrival time of inbound passenger baggage at the gate and the arrival time of inbound passenger baggage at the baggage carousel. Untimely detection of anomalies: Existing systems struggle to detect anomalies in baggage transport in a timely manner, such as baggage not being checked in on inbound flights or baggage falling during transit, leading to baggage loss or delays. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a baggage management method based on UWB technology, integrating the advantages of RFID and satellite positioning technologies, to achieve precise baggage location, end-to-end tracking, node reporting, real-time anomaly detection, and automatic early warning. This would improve the efficiency and accuracy of airport baggage handling and reduce baggage loss, misdelivery, and delays. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to solve the technical problems pointed out in the background art, and to provide a method and system for monitoring the transportation of passenger baggage on airport inbound flights. This method enables real-time recording and monitoring of the entire transportation support service monitoring data according to the transportation support start point to the transportation support end point, thereby improving the efficiency and accuracy of transportation support.

[0004] The objective of this invention is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0005] A method for monitoring the transportation of passenger baggage on inbound flights to an airport, the method comprising:

[0006] S1. Construct a baggage transportation support monitoring network system that includes data packets associated with passenger baggage. The data packets associated with passenger baggage are stored in sequence according to flight information, passenger information, baggage RFID tags, and support service information.

[0007] S2. The arrival gate is equipped with a UWB base station A. Baggage carts with UWB tags enter the arrival gate and scan and communicate with UWB base station A to obtain the arrival time of the baggage cart. Baggage towing vehicles that are connected to the baggage transport support monitoring network system arrive at the arrival gate and are bound to carry several baggage carts. The baggage towing vehicle has a satellite positioning module and a UWB tag. The baggage staff uses RFID reader A to read the RFID tags of baggage bags in the arrival flight and loads them into the baggage cart. The reading time of the first baggage bag RFID tag is recorded as the baggage exit time. The baggage transport support monitoring network system binds the flight information, baggage towing vehicle, baggage cart, and baggage bags loaded on the baggage cart in a hierarchical manner.

[0008] S3. After all baggage of the inbound flight has been loaded, the baggage transport support monitoring network system records the satellite positioning information of the baggage tractor in real time and updates the positioning information of the baggage. If the satellite positioning information of the baggage tractor has just left the inbound parking position area, the inbound parking position is recorded as the starting point of transport support and the starting time is recorded.

[0009] S4. The airport baggage sorting station is equipped with a UWB base station B. When the baggage cart arrives at the airport baggage sorting station, it scans and communicates with the UWB base station B. The baggage transport support monitoring network system records the transport support destination and the destination time. The RFID reader B on the airport baggage sorting station reads the RFID tags of the baggage bags in sequence and records the baggage arrival time. The reading time of the first baggage bag RFID tag is taken as the baggage support arrival time.

[0010] To better implement this invention, the security service information is constructed based on flight information, linking passenger identity information, baggage RFID tag information, inbound flight parking position information, and inbound flight airport baggage sorting station information.

[0011] Preferably, the baggage transport support monitoring network system uses the baggage exit location and time, transport support start point location and time, transport support end point location and time, and baggage support arrival location and time as the full transport support service monitoring data for baggage. The full transport support service monitoring data is recorded and monitored in real time at each node of the support process. The baggage transport support monitoring network system updates the baggage location information in real time between the transport support start point and the transport support end point based on the satellite positioning and UWB positioning information of the baggage tractor and displays the progress at each node of the support process. The baggage transport support monitoring network system records all baggage RFID tags read by RFID reader A at the arrival parking position and baggage RFID tags read by RFID reader B at the airport baggage sorting station.

[0012] Preferably, in method S1, the passenger baggage association data package is the data associated with the arrival flight at the departure airport. The airport check-in station at the departure airport is equipped with a flight information acquisition device and an RFID tag association generation device. The flight information acquisition device reads or acquires passenger boarding pass data, flight information, and support service information. The RFID tag association generation device generates RFID tags associated with the passenger's checked baggage and attaches them to the checked baggage accordingly. The passenger baggage association data package associates and stores passenger information, flight information, support service information, and baggage RFID tags.

[0013] Preferably, the present invention further includes the following method:

[0014] S5. Extract all baggage data of inbound flights from the baggage data packet associated with passenger baggage. Compare the baggage corresponding to the RFID tag read and recorded by the RFID reader B at the airport baggage sorting station with all baggage that should be checked in by the inbound flight. If there are any baggage that is missed or incorrectly arrived at the airport baggage sorting station, issue an alarm.

[0015] Preferably, in the baggage transport support monitoring network system, baggage towing vehicles and baggage carts are each assigned a unique identification information. The unique identification information of the baggage cart is recorded in the UWB tag, and the unique identification information includes the ID number.

[0016] Preferably, in method S2, the baggage tractor entering UWB base station A communicates with the baggage transport support monitoring network system and binds all baggage cars accordingly; in method S4, when the baggage tractor unloads the baggage cars, it simultaneously unbinds the unloaded baggage cars.

[0017] Preferably, in method S3, the method for determining when the baggage tractor has just left the arrival parking position area is as follows: a satellite positioning and UWB positioning verification electronic area is drawn with the arrival parking position area as the center. If the positioning information of the baggage tractor was in the satellite positioning verification electronic area at the previous moment and is outside the positioning verification electronic area at the current moment, then the current moment is recorded as the starting time corresponding to the starting point of transportation support.

[0018] Preferably, the monitoring data of the entire transportation support service is sequentially linked and organized according to the flight, passenger, baggage, and baggage support process nodes, and then visualized. After all passengers' baggage on the flight has been correctly supported, a support result prompt is output; if a baggage support error occurs, an alarm prompt is output until all passengers' baggage on the inbound flight has been correctly supported.

[0019] An airport arrival passenger baggage transport monitoring system includes an arrival gate, an airport baggage sorting station, baggage tractors, baggage carts, and a baggage transport support monitoring network system. The baggage transport support monitoring network system contains passenger baggage association data packets, which are stored sequentially according to flight information, passenger information, baggage RFID tags, and support service information. The arrival gate is equipped with a UWB base station A. Baggage carts equipped with UWB tags enter the arrival gate and establish a communication connection with UWB base station A. Baggage tractors connected to the baggage transport support monitoring network system arrive at the arrival gate and are associated with several baggage carts. Each baggage tractor has a satellite positioning module. Baggage handlers use RFID readers A to read RFID tags on baggage from arriving flights, load the baggage into the baggage carts, and record the reading of the first baggage RFID tag. The baggage departure time is used as the baggage handling time. The baggage transport support monitoring network system binds flight information, baggage tractors, baggage carts, and baggage carts loaded on the baggage carts in a hierarchical manner. The baggage transport support monitoring network system records the satellite positioning information of the baggage tractors in real time and updates the positioning information of the baggage bags. If the satellite positioning information of the baggage tractors has just left the arrival parking position area, the arrival parking position is recorded as the starting point of the transport support and the starting time is recorded. The airport baggage sorting station is equipped with a UWB base station B. When the baggage cart arrives at the airport baggage sorting station after being transported by the baggage tractor and scans and communicates with the UWB base station B, the baggage transport support monitoring network system records this as the end point of the transport support and records the end point time. The RFID reader B on the airport baggage sorting station reads the RFID tags of the baggage bags in sequence and records the baggage arrival time. The reading time of the first baggage bag RFID tag is used as the baggage support arrival time.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages and beneficial effects:

[0021] (1) The baggage transport support monitoring network system of the present invention can receive baggage from the boarding bridge parking position and transport it to the baggage sorting station of the destination airport for corresponding binding of baggage tractors and baggage carts. The baggage tractor, passenger information, flight information, support service information, baggage cart and baggage RFID tag information are associated and stored. It can use the starting position and time of baggage transport support, real-time updated location information, the ending position and time of transport support, and transport error alarms as the full transport support service monitoring data of checked baggage. It realizes the real-time recording and monitoring storage of the full transport support service monitoring data according to the support process nodes from the start point to the end point of transport support, realizes the process monitoring prompts and alarm prompts of baggage transport support process nodes, and improves the efficiency and accuracy of transport support.

[0022] (2) The present invention achieves the purpose of accurate baggage positioning, full-process tracking, node reporting, real-time detection of abnormal situations and automatic early warning, thereby improving the efficiency and accuracy of airport baggage transportation and reducing the probability of baggage loss, misdelivery and delay.

[0023] (3) The present invention can monitor the origin and destination of baggage tractors assigned to support tasks, which facilitates support monitoring and scheduling and improves the accuracy and timeliness of baggage transportation support. Attached Figure Description

[0028] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to embodiments:

[0029] Example

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, a method for monitoring the transportation of passenger baggage on inbound flights at an airport includes the following steps:

[0031] S1. Construct a baggage transportation support monitoring network system containing data packets associated with passenger baggage. These data packets are stored in sequence, linking flight information, passenger information, baggage RFID tags, and support service information. Specifically, the support service information is based on flight information and includes associated information such as passenger identity information, baggage RFID tag information, inbound flight parking position information, and inbound flight airport baggage sorting station information.

[0032] In some embodiments, the passenger baggage association data package is data recorded at the departure airport for inbound flights. The airport check-in station at the departure airport is equipped with a flight information acquisition device and an RFID tag association generation device. The flight information acquisition device reads or acquires passenger boarding pass data, flight information, and support service information. The RFID tag association generation device generates RFID tags associated with the passenger's checked baggage and affixes them to the baggage. The passenger baggage association data package stores passenger information, flight information, support service information, and the baggage RFID tag in a linked manner. This invention can construct an airport baggage tractor transportation support scheduling system. This system communicates and stores the passenger baggage association data package. The system schedules corresponding baggage tractors to load baggage at the inbound flight's jet bridge parking position and transport the baggage to the airport baggage sorting station.

[0033] S2, the arrival parking position is equipped with a UWB base station A ( Figure 2 UWB base station A is shown, which is installed at the arrival parking position. Figure 2 As shown, baggage carts equipped with UWB tags enter the arrival parking position and establish a communication connection with UWB base station A to obtain the arrival time of the baggage carts. Meanwhile, baggage tractors connected to the baggage transport support monitoring network system arrive at the arrival parking position and are correspondingly bound to carry several baggage carts (see...). Figure 2 Each baggage tractor is equipped with several baggage carts, forming a baggage cart group bound to the tractor. Each tractor has a satellite positioning module and a UWB tag. Baggage handlers use RFID readers (A) to read the RFID tags on baggage bags from inbound flights, load them into the baggage carts, and record the reading time of the first baggage bag's RFID tag as the baggage exit time. The baggage transport support monitoring network system sequentially binds flight information, baggage tractors, baggage carts, and the baggage bags loaded on the carts according to hierarchical levels (i.e., from top to bottom). In some embodiments, the baggage tractor and baggage cart in the baggage transport support monitoring network system are each assigned a unique identification information. The unique identification information of the baggage cart is recorded in the UWB tag, and the unique identification information includes an ID number.

[0034] S3. After all baggage of the inbound flight has been loaded, the baggage transport support monitoring network system records the satellite positioning information of the baggage tractor in real time and updates the positioning information of the baggage. If the satellite positioning information of the baggage tractor has just left the inbound parking position area, the inbound parking position is recorded as the starting point of transport support and the starting time is recorded.

[0035] In some embodiments, the method for determining whether a baggage tractor has just left the arrival parking position area is as follows: An electronic verification area for satellite positioning and UWB positioning is established centered on the arrival parking position area. If the location information of the baggage tractor was within the electronic verification area at the previous moment and is currently outside the electronic verification area, then the current moment is recorded as the start time corresponding to the transportation support start point. Similarly, a verification judgment for entering the airport baggage sorting station area can also be set up, and the method is as follows: An electronic verification area for satellite positioning and UWB positioning is established centered on the airport baggage sorting station area. If the location information of the baggage tractor was within the electronic verification area at the previous moment and is currently outside the electronic verification area, then the current moment is recorded as the end time corresponding to the transportation support endpoint.

[0036] S4. UWB base station B is installed at the airport baggage sorting station. Figure 3 (Not shown), the baggage cart, after being transported by the baggage tractor to the airport baggage sorting station, scans and communicates with the UWB base station B. The baggage transport support monitoring network system records this as the transport support endpoint and records the endpoint time. RFID reader B at the airport baggage sorting station ( Figure 3 (Not shown) The baggage RFID tags are read sequentially and the baggage arrival time is recorded. The reading time of the first baggage RFID tag is used as the baggage arrival time. In some embodiments, the baggage tractor entering UWB base station A communicates with the baggage transportation support monitoring network system and binds all baggage carts accordingly; when the baggage tractor unloads a baggage cart, it simultaneously unbinds the unloaded baggage cart. Figure 3 As shown, baggage carts are transported by baggage tractors to the airport baggage sorting station. The airport baggage sorting station includes baggage conveyors and a baggage carousel located at the end of the baggage conveyors. Staff members use RFID readers B to read the RFID tags of baggage bags in sequence and move the arrived baggage bags to the baggage conveyors. The baggage conveyors are used to transport baggage bags to the baggage carousel at the exit of the baggage conveyors, so that passengers can easily pick up their baggage. An RFID reader C can be installed on the baggage carousel. After passengers pick up their baggage bags, they use RFID reader C to scan the RFID tags of the baggage bags and record the time the baggage was picked up.

[0037] S5. Extract all baggage data of inbound flights from the baggage data packet associated with passenger baggage. Compare the baggage corresponding to the RFID tag read and recorded by the RFID reader B at the airport baggage sorting station with all baggage that should be checked in by the inbound flight. If there are any baggage that is missed or incorrectly arrived at the airport baggage sorting station, issue an alarm.

[0038] In some embodiments, the baggage transport support monitoring network system uses the baggage departure location and time, the start point location and time of transport support, the end point location and time of transport support, and the arrival location and time of baggage support as the full transport support service monitoring data for baggage. The full transport support service monitoring data is recorded and monitored in real time at each node of the support process. The baggage transport support monitoring network system updates the baggage location information in real time between the start and end points of the transport support based on the satellite positioning and UWB positioning information of the baggage tractor and displays the progress at each node of the support process. The baggage transport support monitoring network system records all baggage RFID tags read by RFID readers A at the arrival parking positions and RFID readers B at the airport baggage sorting stations. The monitoring data for the entire transportation support service is organized and visualized in sequence according to the flight, passenger, baggage, and baggage support process nodes. After all passengers' baggage on the flight has been correctly supported, a support result prompt (i.e., a support service completion prompt) is output. If a baggage support error occurs, an alarm prompt is output (an alarm prompt is given to facilitate emergency transportation support services) until all passengers' baggage on the inbound flight has been correctly supported.

[0039] like Figure 4As shown, an airport inbound passenger baggage transport monitoring system includes an inbound parking stand, an airport baggage sorting station, baggage tractors, baggage carts, and a baggage transport support monitoring network system. The baggage transport support monitoring network system contains data packets associated with passenger baggage, which are stored sequentially according to flight information, passenger information, baggage RFID tags, and support service information. The inbound parking stand is equipped with a UWB base station A. Baggage carts equipped with UWB tags enter the inbound parking stand and scan to establish a communication connection with UWB base station A. Baggage tractors connected to the baggage transport support monitoring network system arrive at the inbound parking stand and are correspondingly bound to several baggage carts. The baggage tractors have satellite positioning modules. Baggage handlers use RFID readers A to read the RFID tags of baggage from inbound flights and load them into the baggage carts, recording the reading time of the first baggage RFID tag as the baggage exit time. The baggage transport support monitoring network system sequentially binds flight information, baggage tractors, baggage carts, and the baggage loaded on the baggage carts according to hierarchical levels (i.e., from top to bottom). The baggage transport support monitoring network system records the satellite positioning information of the baggage tractor in real time and updates the positioning information of the baggage. If the satellite positioning information of the baggage tractor has just left the arrival parking position area, the arrival parking position is recorded as the starting point of the transport support and the starting time is recorded. The airport baggage sorting station is equipped with a UWB base station B. When the baggage cart arrives at the airport baggage sorting station, it scans and communicates with the UWB base station B. The baggage transport support monitoring network system records this as the transport support endpoint and the endpoint time. RFID readers B on the airport baggage sorting station sequentially read the RFID tags of the baggage and record the baggage arrival time. The reading time of the first baggage tag is used as the baggage support arrival time. The airport baggage sorting station is also equipped with a baggage conveyor. The baggage conveyor is used to transport baggage to the baggage carousel at the exit of the baggage conveyor for passengers to retrieve their baggage. An RFID reader C can be installed on the baggage carousel. After passengers retrieve their baggage, they use RFID reader C to scan the RFID tag on the baggage and record the baggage retrieval time.

[0040] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
