Rfid Based 3d Buried Assets Location System
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents research aimed at developing a three dimensional (3D) buried assets locating system based on Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology. RFID is employed to improve the locating of underground infrastructure. Problems facing the utility companies are highlighted and discussed. Within the paper, differences between system performance in real conditions and ideal conditions will be examined. Other factors, which may affect the overall performance characteristics of the system, such as RF tag type, antennae, and soil conditions will also be analysed and discussed.

متن کاملThe Potential of RFID for Moveable Asset Management
Moveable asset management is still not appropriately supported by existing IT systems. Items are not managed individually, information about location, status and usage is not accurate or lacking. This can cause delays in industrial operations, inefficient use or excess inventory of costly assets. We propose RFID technology as the key to link the necessary data directly with the physical assets....
متن کاملRFID in the Built Environment: Buried Asset Locating Systems
RFID tags (radio frequency identification devices) are in essence transceivers consisting of three components that make up a sophisticated transponder. Once activated, the tag transmits data back to a receiving antenna: the technology does not require human intervention and further benefits from the fact that no line of sight is needed to control/operate the system. The tags can have both read ...
