Abstract
Our paper presents an approach of how RFID technology can be used to simplify operations and improve the effectiveness and efficiency of inventory management. The goal of our research is to design system architecture for identifying and monitoring movement of monitored items. The basic requirement is to create a modular system and application of this system for real hospital laundry management application. We analysed possible solutions and available technologies. We also analysed a specific use-case of laundry management process for designed laundry monitoring system based on the IoT platform principles. The development is related to the hot topic of the Internet of Things and the utilization of RFID technology as a key technology for detection and identification of monitored objects.
Highlights
This paper describes the main outcomes of our research which is focused on the problematic of design and development of a universal system for monitoring the movement of objects and things
Our paper presents an approach of how Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology can be used to simplify operations and improve the effectiveness and efficiency of inventory management [24,25,26,27,28]
We have found that by using one four-port RFID reader we can monitor four laundry operations, thereby reducing installation costs
Summary
This paper describes the main outcomes of our research which is focused on the problematic of design and development of a universal system for monitoring the movement of objects and things. Based on collected requirements and system specification we developed a universal open system which can be applied to a wide range of application scenarios requiring monitoring the movement of things such as logistic applications and software for control and management of a whole range of items. The third chapter is focused on the explanation of a developed system topology and its main properties and functions followed by the description of developed tools and modules for system management and testing. The last chapter summarizes our achievements and discusses the steps of how we will continue in our following research
