  • Radio frequency identification (RFID) based location tracking system in an airport environment
    Publication number: 20070119926
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatuses for tracking items automatically are ed. A radio frequency identification (RFID) tag is used with a material g system to enable the identification, location tracking, and managing of aviation assets, such as baggage and cargo, in an airport environment. For example, passive RFID tags are attached to an aviation asset. Antennas are placed at locations where monitoring of assets is necessary. A local controller and RFID reader use the antennas to communicate with the passive RFID tags to determine the identity and location of the asset.

  • Radio frequency identification (RFID) material tracking and apparatus
    Patent number: 7195159
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatuses for tracking items automatically are described. A radio frequency identification (RFID) tag is used with a material tracking system to enable the identification and locating of aviation assets in an airport environment. For example, passive (e.g., non-battery) RFID tags are attached to an aviation asset. Antennas are placed at locations where monitoring of assets is necessary. A local controller and RFID reader use the antennas to communicate with the passive RFID tags to determine the identity and location of the asset.
