The present invention is further illustrated by the following preferred embodiments, but is not intended to be limited thereby.
An embodiment provides a tracking system for air-transported baggage, which, referring to fig. 1, includes a wireless baggage tag 101 disposed on the baggage, and a data acquisition device 102 disposed on a target node of an air transportation path of the baggage. The wireless bag tag 101 is configured to transmit a first wireless signal, which is used to characterize the identity information of the bag. The data acquisition device 102 is configured to acquire a first wireless signal to track the baggage.
As an alternative embodiment, the destination nodes include security points, sorting points, loading points (i.e., locations where baggage is loaded into a transport vehicle), unloading points (i.e., locations where baggage is unloaded from a transport vehicle or aircraft), transfer points (i.e., locations where transport vehicles are converted in a transport path), arrival points, pick-up points, etc. on the air transport path of baggage. At each target node of the air transport path of the baggage, the data acquisition device 102 acquires a first wireless signal emitted by the wireless baggage tag 101 on each piece of baggage. When the data acquisition device 102 acquires the first wireless signal transmitted by the wireless luggage tag 101, it indicates that the luggage corresponding to the wireless luggage tag 101 has arrived at the target node corresponding to the data acquisition device 102; otherwise, indicating that the baggage corresponding to the wireless baggage tag 101 does not reach the target node corresponding to the data acquisition device 102. Accordingly, the tracking system for air-transported baggage of the present embodiment can track baggage. Moreover, as the wireless luggage tag 101 for transmitting the wireless signal is adopted, only the luggage needs to pass through the target node, the distance between the wireless luggage tag 101 of the luggage and the data acquisition device 102 at the target node is naturally within the interaction range of the data acquisition device 102 and the wireless luggage tag 101, and the data acquisition device 102 can read the wireless luggage tag 101 without being limited by a reading angle and being incapable of being read due to shielding. Therefore, the efficiency of luggage tracking is greatly improved, and the accuracy of reading luggage information is improved; moreover, personnel for implementing scanning do not need to be specially arranged, and manpower is saved.
As an optional embodiment, the tracking system further comprises a background server 103. After acquiring the first wireless signal, the data acquisition device 102 further transmits tracking information to the background server 103, where the tracking information includes the identity information of the baggage and the information of the target node corresponding to the data acquisition device 102. That is, the background server 103 summarizes the baggage information acquired by the data acquisition devices 102 of the target nodes. When data corresponding to a certain baggage uploaded by the data acquisition device 102 of a certain target node is lost, that is, if the background server 103 fails to receive the tracking information, the background server 103 is further configured to send an alarm signal to prompt a transport person that a certain baggage is lost at a specific certain target node. Therefore, the transportation process of the luggage can be conveniently tracked, the lost luggage can be conveniently tracked, and the lost position can be positioned and sent.
The tracking information also includes time information when the data acquisition device 102 acquired the first wireless signal. That is, the background server 103 saves the time when the baggage arrives at the corresponding target node, so as to track the transportation process of the baggage.
For the convenience of the passenger to operate, as an optional embodiment, the tracking system further includes a data writing device 104, and the data writing device 104 is configured to write data information to the wireless baggage tag 101, where the data information includes the identity information of the baggage.
In this embodiment, the wireless baggage tag 101 is implemented by using a UHF/NFC dual-band card, the data acquisition device 102 includes a UHF reader, and the data writing device 104 includes an NFC writer. As an optional implementation manner, the NFC writing device is disposed in a mobile terminal. That is, the passenger may write the UHF/NFC dual-band card by using the mobile terminal with the NFC module, and the APP (application) of the mobile terminal provides a slave user interface, so that the passenger may write the identity information of the baggage into the UHF/NFC dual-band card, including the identity information of the passenger, the serial number of the baggage, the trip information, the weight of the baggage, and the like.
In an optional implementation manner, the data information written into the wireless luggage tag further includes the weight of the luggage, and the data acquisition device and the data writing device are both disposed on a weighing device. The weighing device is used for weighing the luggage. After the data acquisition device acquires the first wireless signal, the data writing device is further used for writing the weight of the luggage into the wireless luggage tag. During specific implementation, the UHF reading equipment and the NFC writing equipment are arranged on a weighing device of an airport. When a passenger checks in the boarding check to check in the luggage and the luggage is placed on the weighing device, the UHF reading equipment acquires a first wireless signal transmitted by the UHF/NFC dual-frequency card, namely the fact that the luggage is located at a check-in and weighing node. The NFC writing device then accepts the weighed weight of the item of luggage from the weighing apparatus and then writes the weight of the item of luggage to the UHF/NFC dual-frequency card. Therefore, the efficiency and the accuracy of writing the luggage weight information are effectively improved.
As an alternative embodiment, the background server 103 is located at an airport. Each airport is correspondingly provided with a background server 103, data can be shared among the background servers 103, and the luggage basis data is transmitted to the background servers 103 of other airports. The tracking system of the present embodiment also supports other applications of the airline or airport for baggage tracking.
According to the tracking system for baggage in air transportation of the present embodiment, the traveler can fill in the identification information of the traveler, the serial number of the baggage, the travel information, and the like to the wireless baggage tag 101 through the NFC module of the mobile terminal according to his/her travel. When checking in, UHF reading equipment and NFC writing equipment which are arranged on a weighing device of an airport are matched with each other, and weight information of luggage stored in the UHF/NFC dual-frequency card is supplemented or corrected.
When the luggage passes through target nodes such as a security check point, a sorting point, a loading point, an unloading point, a transfer point, an arrival point, an extraction point and the like on an air transportation path, corresponding UHF reading equipment reads signals transmitted by the UHF/NFC dual-frequency card. The UHF reading device also uploads the acquired identification information of the luggage stored by the UHF/NFC dual-frequency card, information of a target node where the UHF reading device is located (for example, the number or location information of the target node), and the time when the UHF reading device reads the signal of the UHF/NFC dual-frequency card to the background server 103. The UHF reading device comprises at least one of a fixed UHC identification device, a hand-held terminal with UFC scanning function and a luggage transmission device with UFC reading function.
The background server 103 summarizes the tracking information uploaded by the UHF reading device. When a certain item of baggage does not appear in a certain target node as expected according to the tracking information and the preset information of the target node, the background server 103 sends out an alarm signal to prompt the transport staff.
