Abstract

The mishandled passenger baggage in aviation industry is still a big problem. This research is focused on designing a baggage handling system (BHS) at the airport for identifying and tracking of passenger baggage based on RFID technology. The proposed BHS system consists of hardware device to identify the baggage and the cloud-based tracking application. The BHS device is designed based on UHF passive RFID technology and IoT technology. The device can be used as handheld device in check-in counter and arrival area. The device can also be used as a fixed device in screening, sortation, and transition belt conveyer. The BHS device consists of RFID reader module, a microcontroller, LCD, keypad, a WiFi module and a storage device. The user and airport staff can track the luggage position and its status through dashboard application.
