  • SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR LOCATING RACK-BASED ASSETS
    Publication number: 20190173154
    Abstract: A system includes a central server; a reader in communication with the central server; and a set of equipment racks. Each equipment rack of the set of equipment racks defines a face. The each equipment rack includes an observer device and at least two antenna arrays. At least one of the at least two antennas is in communication with the observer device. The system further including a set of tags attached to assets disposed within the set of equipment racks. Each tag of the set of tags is to transmit a beacon signal including a tag identifier of the each tag. The at least one antenna is to receive the beacon signal. The observer device is to communicate the tag identifier and the characteristics of the beacon signal to the reader and central server. The central server determines a rack location based on the characteristics of the beacon signal.

  • Real-time asset tracking and event association
    Patent number: 9330287
    Abstract: A system including a detector, a reader, and a tag. The detector includes a sensor to detect a user event, and a communication circuitry to communicate at a first frequency band. The reader includes communication circuitry to communicate at a second frequency band. The tag includes a first communication circuitry to communicate at the first frequency band and a second communication circuitry to communicate at the second frequency band. The detector is to communicate with the tag via the communication circuitry of the detector. The detector is to determine whether to associate the tag with the user event. The detector is to communicate the determined association. The tag is to communicate using the second communication circuitry of the tag with the reader.
