Aviation logistics management RFID radio frequency identification technology

First, RFID works and its application

RFID technology is the use of radio frequency signal through the spatial coupling of no contact information is passed to the delivery of information to identify the purpose.

RFID system consists of a label, write, and software in three sections. Tag is typically applied to the goods, as part of the stick barcode label, the reader can send a wireless signal, in the same band of RF fields in all labels can receive, read and write to the device through an antenna to receive signals from the label, to decode, through cable or wireless network data to your computer system, RFID system for data transmission in strict accordance with the master-slave principle, issued a directive in the direction followed by the application, the reader, RFID tag, and returns the answer in the opposite direction.

RFID with contactless read/write function, appearance and shape easily miniaturization and diversity, good resistance to the environment, reusability, penetrating and data memory capacity, the dominant characteristics, widely used by the market.

In foreign countries, radio frequency tags has been widely used in industrial automation, business automation, transportation, logistics, etc. RFID technology has in recent years in China, China's land area, with the modern logistics industry is becoming increasingly

And development, according to statistics on the application of RF technology in the next ten years will have billions of dollars in demand.

Second, based on RFID technology air logistics information system

Currently, the rapid development of China's aviation industry, air-flow for several years of double-digit growth, airport, airline hardware infrastructure has already begun to take shape.

However with the developed countries in the world shipping freight efficiency low and freight service levels remain relatively large gap, air logistics information flow is an important reason, cause the flow of goods, long goods loss rate is relatively high, based on RFID technology aviation logistics management information system to the whole process of change that occurred.

Aviation Logistics business currently in our basic artificial way, through staff onsite inventory, will record the entry on the computer, the documents process usually uses the sneaker or telephone, facsimile, due process, human factors, and links of the complex, cargo documents information entry accuracy of less than 80%, and after the introduction of RFID technology, no matter how complex business processes, because of its information directly from the system and keep it in a label, you can greatly improve the accuracy, completeness and consistency, in the light of the above goods flow, and operating characteristics of the goods by air, you can construct the following information system.

Information system consists of four parts: data center, integrated query system, the integrated scheduling system, RFID scanning system.

Data management is the core of the information system, the database server information (cargo information, documents, information, delivery information, geographic information) storage, application management server for applications running and management.

WEB server to answer all kinds of information publications.

Integrated query system for logistics processes in the participation of the parties, through the network enters the information system, query cargo warehousing, transportation, and other management systems, enables convergence and logistics enterprises in business realization of integration.

Integrated scheduling system by querying the database state and goods in the combined GPS information can be found in the vehicle monitoring terminal location cargo location.

RFID scanning system, staff through the network call order information in the database, and freight forwarding of cargo delivery to the identification, RFID label is written to the cargo information, such as a box number code, quantity, forwarding code, cargo status, destination, and so on.

And then the information and then passing in the database server.

System user groups such as airlines, freight companies, cargo transportation, aviation authorities, a customs clearance and so on can all three, in accordance with their respective permissions landing system query or perform monitoring, operational work.

Third, the RFID technology in aviation logistics management significance

In the establishment based on RFID technology air logistics information system, you can handle the logistics of the process of applying RFID tags and RFID technology to improve the efficiency of the logistics processes, improve service levels, reduce operating costs.

Through the label's package and information applications, you can send the pickup and the goods, the customs, the Joint Inspection Unit, airport Logistics Park warehouse management, distribution management, vehicle monitoring, transport and other links to operators, control units, unless the owner of the full reach of information sharing, so as to achieve the integration of regulatory, centralized management and timely information query and publish.

1. improve logistics service levels to meet customer demand

Through the use of RFID technology, computer network technology, electronic data exchange technology, GPS technology, and implementation of air cargo in the flow of the entire process of tracking, guarantee of goods flows in door to door service and one-stop service, by providing greater clarity of cargo information service, reducing the customer's operational costs.

2. improve logistics enterprises on the capacity to respond to market changes

Application of RFID technology, to achieve air cargo transport units involved in

Information sharing and enhance business-to-market needs change, quick response and high efficiency of an integrated transport, cargo distribution, enables to reduce inventory, improve commodity turnover, reduced demand forecast error, thereby greatly improving business-to-change market responsiveness.

3. improving the level of enterprise information management

RFID technology can greatly speed up airport, airlines, freight companies, transport companies, customs departments and other units of the pace of internal information, promote the related logistics Department and Finance Department, production department, Sales Department communication, integration of the internal processes and improves management efficiency, reduce operating costs.

IV. conclusions

Based on RFID technology

Air logistics information system is covered by the network foundation technologies, data mining, data fusion, data processing, cryptography, digital signature, authentication, and other security technology. By B/S and C/S structure for internet and intranet of terminal operations. Is to improve the airline, airport authorities, freight companies, transport companies, logistics industry's overall efficiency and a close third check service standards and an effective means of office efficiency.

Comprehensive utilization of RFID technology, GPS technology and EDI electronic data interchange for the freight industry base data, freight goods basic information, warehouse management, transportation vehicle information, and other information real-time acquisition, information for the integrated treatment of information publishing, information and interactive.

The air logistics information systems into the enterprise, Government, and individuals to provide logistics data collection, information and information-sharing and other services of the platform, has a broad development prospects.
