1. Brief introduction of WIFI-RFID real-time positioning system solution

The WIFI-RFID real-time positioning system solution combines multiple technologies such as wireless networks, radio frequency identification (RFID) and real-time positioning, and proposes a new real-time positioning system solution concept based on wireless local area network radio frequency identification technology, which combines well The advantages of RFID and WIFI wireless local area network. Where the wireless local area network is covered, the system can track and monitor various assets and personnel at any time, and accurately find the target objects, so as to realize real-time positioning, monitoring and management of assets and personnel. The real-time positioning system solution consists of electronic tags, locators and positioning servers. Among them, the locator is an RFID reader with wireless routing function independently developed by our company, and it can also use our company’s general RFID reader and wireless beacon developed by our company. The locator is used to receive the RSSI and ID information from the RFID electronic tag, and upload it to the positioning server through the wireless local area network.

Compared with other technologies, RFID technology has a cost advantage, andRFIDThe positioning technology has little requirement for the environment and the environmental impact it receives, with high positioning accuracy and large transmission range; RFID technology can locate the object while also reading a large amount of information about the object from the positioning target. At present, RFID-based positioning technology on the market is mainly based on reader antenna positioning, which has many reader sites, high cost, and poor positioning accuracy. The real-time positioning system solution is characterized by low electronic system complexity, easy implementation and low cost; high positioning accuracy and strong anti-interference ability. The system has ultra-low power consumption and has broad application prospects.
