Abstract: A system includes a radiofrequency identification (RFID) integrated circuit (IC) associated with a mobile asset. The 5GID-IC can store sensor data collected from sensors of the mobile asset and generate tracking data of the mobile asset based on that sensor data. The 5GID-IC responds to radiofrequency (RF) signals radiated on the RFID device, where the RF signals have frequencies in a licensed spectrum of a 5G telecommunications network. The system includes a reader device configured to independently check multiple 5GID-ICs of mobile assets for tracking data. The reader device includes a communications circuit that can retrieve the tracking data from the 5GID-IC of the mobile asset.
