Description

Label checking method and device based on RFID system
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a method and an apparatus for checking a tag based on a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) system.
Background
RFID is a communication technology for identifying a specific object and reading and writing related data by radio signals. RFID is a non-contact automatic identification technology that uses the radio frequency of electromagnetic waves for radio communication to automatically identify individuals without the need for mechanical or optical contact between the identification system and a specific target.
As shown in fig. 1, the RFID system is composed of three important components, namely, a tag, a reader, and an external antenna. The tag consists of a coupling element and a chip, contains an internal antenna and is used for communicating with an external antenna; the reader is used for reading the information of the label; the external antenna is used for transmitting radio frequency signals between the tag and the reader. The basic working principle is as follows: the reader sends a radio frequency signal with a certain frequency through the external antenna, and when the tag enters a working area of the external antenna, induction current is generated, so that the obtained energy is activated; the tag carries information such as self codes in radio frequency signals and sends the information out through a built-in antenna; the external antenna receives a radio frequency signal sent by the label and then transmits the radio frequency signal to the reader; the reader demodulates and decodes the received radio frequency signal and then sends the radio frequency signal to the server for relevant processing.
At present, the application range of the RFID system is very wide, for example, in an unmanned intelligent retail container, an unmanned intelligent supermarket, a warehouse in a shopping mall, a warehouse in a hospital, a book supermarket, etc., no matter which application scenario is, the tags in the RFID system need to be checked, and the missing tags are determined by comparing the current checking result with the previous checking result, so as to determine that the articles corresponding to the tags are taken away.

Detailed Description
Aiming at the problems of missing discs of labels and greatly reducing the accuracy rate of label checking in the prior art, the embodiment of the invention provides a label checking method based on an RFID system, which is applied to a reader included in the RFID system shown in fig. 1, wherein the RFID system further comprises at least two external antennas and at least two labels, the number of the external antennas and the number of the labels can be set according to actual needs, and the number of the external antennas and the number of the labels in fig. 1 are exemplarily represented. The flow of the method is shown in fig. 2, and the execution steps are as follows:
s21: and after detecting the checking instruction, checking the label through at least two external antennas according to a checking rule.
The checking instruction may be sent by the server, specifically may be sent after the checking period is detected to have expired, may be sent after the decrease of the article is detected, or may be sent after the addition of the article is detected, and may be sent in many cases according to different scenes of actual application, which is not described in detail herein.
The inventory rule can be set according to actual needs, for example, assuming that there are 8 external antennas, each external antenna has 5 selected powers and 4 frequencies, the reader sequentially issues an instruction to the external antennas to instruct the external antenna 0 to begin inventory at the 1 st frequency and the 1 st power, after receiving a radio frequency signal returned by the tag, the reader instructs the external antenna 0 to begin inventory at the 1 st frequency and the 2 nd power, after receiving the radio frequency signal returned by the tag, the reader instructs the external antenna 0 to begin inventory at the 1 st frequency and the 3 rd power, after receiving the radio frequency signal returned by the tag, the reader instructs the external antenna 0 to begin inventory at the 1 st frequency and the 4 th power, after receiving the radio frequency signal returned by the tag, the reader instructs the external antenna 1 to begin inventory at the 1 st frequency and the 1 st power, 8230, after receiving the radio frequency signal returned by the tag, the reader instructs the external antenna 7 to begin inventory at the 1 st frequency and the 4 th power, and when all the selected frequencies of the external antennas are completed, all the inventory processes of the selected frequencies are performed again.
S22: and generating the current checking result based on the checking information of the checked label.
The inventory information of each tag includes tag identification, antenna identification, frequency, power, received Signal Strength Indication (RSSI) value and inventory time.
S23: and determining the suspected missing label identification based on the label identification included in the current checking result and the label identification included in the previous checking result.
S24: and obtaining selected inventory information corresponding to the suspected missing label identification from the historical inventory result and the current inventory result.
The historical counting results are stored with the previous counting results, and the selected counting information can be obtained by determining that the suspected missing label identification corresponds to the historical counting result and the current counting result. The number of the historical count results may be set according to actual needs, and for example, the count results of the previous 8 times, the previous 10 times, the previous 5 times, and the like may be saved.
S25: and checking the labels again through the external antenna corresponding to the antenna identification included in the selected checking information based on the selected checking information, and determining whether the labels corresponding to the suspected label identification is missing or not according to the checking result again.
After determining whether the tag is lost, the subsequent process can be continued according to different application scenarios, for example, in an unmanned intelligent retail container, the tag is usually lost after a user buys goods, at this time, a bill can be generated according to the article information corresponding to the lost tag, and the user settles the bill according to the bill, thereby completing the purchasing process.
According to the scheme, after the labels are checked through at least two external antennas according to the checking rule, the missing labels cannot be directly determined, the suspected missing label identification is determined at first, then the selected checking information corresponding to the suspected missing label identification is further determined, the labels are checked again based on the determined selected checking information, whether the labels corresponding to the suspected missing label identification are missing or not is finally determined according to the checking result, the missing of the labels can be avoided as much as possible through at least two rounds of label checking, and the accuracy of label checking is greatly improved.
Specifically, the generating of the current inventory result based on the inventory information of the label in S22 includes:
recording inventory information of each label which is inventoried by at least two external antennas to obtain an initial inventory result;
and performing re-processing on the counting information of the repeated label behind the counting time recorded in the initial counting result to obtain the current counting result.
Due to different checking rules, one external antenna may check the same tag at the same frequency and different power, and in order to ensure the accuracy and simplicity of the checking result, the repeated tag needs to be re-checked at this time, and the re-checking process may be performed on the repeated tag that appears later, that is, the repeated tag that appears later in the checking result is deleted, so that the checking result may be obtained.
Specifically, in the above S23, the determining of the suspected missing tag identifier based on the tag identifier included in the current inventory result and the tag identifier included in the previous inventory result specifically includes:
comparing the label identification included in the current checking result with the label identification included in the previous checking result;
and finding out the label identification which is not included in the current counting result and the label identification which is included in the previous counting result to obtain the suspected missing label identification.
For the label identifiers not included in the current counting result but included in the previous counting result, the labels may be the labels which are already missing, and therefore, the labels can be defined as the suspected missing label identifiers.
Specifically, in the step S24, the obtaining of the selected inventory information corresponding to the suspected missing tag identifier from the historical inventory result and the current inventory result specifically includes:
and acquiring the optimal inventory information corresponding to the maximum RSSI value of the suspected missing label identification and the latest inventory information corresponding to the suspected missing label identification from the historical inventory result to obtain the selected inventory information.
The selected inventory information may include, but is not limited to, the optimal inventory information and the latest inventory information, which may be obtained from the cached inventory results and then the inventory tag may be checked based on the inventory information. Of course, there are many other ways of determining the selected inventory information, and this will not be described here.
Specifically, the step S25 of re-inventorying the tag based on the selected inventory information through the external antenna corresponding to the antenna identifier included in the selected inventory information and determining whether the tag corresponding to the suspected missing tag identifier is missing according to the re-inventorying result specifically includes:
checking a label under the frequency and the power included in the optimal checking information through an external antenna corresponding to the antenna identifier included in the optimal checking information;
if the suspected missing label identification is checked through an external antenna corresponding to the antenna identification included in the optimal checking information under the frequency and the power included in the optimal checking information, determining that the label corresponding to the suspected missing label identification is not missing;
if the suspected missing label identification is not checked through the external antenna corresponding to the antenna identification included in the optimal checking information under the frequency and the power included in the optimal checking information, checking the label through the external antenna corresponding to the antenna identification included in the latest checking information under the frequency and the power included in the latest checking information; and if the suspected missing label identification is not checked through the external antenna corresponding to the antenna identification included in the latest checking information under the frequency and the power included in the latest checking information, determining that the label corresponding to the suspected missing label identification is missing.
The most probable missing tag is scanned under the most probable missing tag, and therefore, if the most probable missing tag is scanned under the inventory information, the most probable missing tag is not scanned under the most probable missing tag, and if the most probable missing tag is not scanned under the most probable missing tag, the most probable missing tag is not scanned under the inventory information, and therefore, the most probable missing tag is determined directly that the most probable missing tag is missed.
Optionally, the inventory rule includes a first set number of selected frequencies corresponding to each of the at least two external antennas, and the method further includes:
after the frequency calibration instruction is detected, sequentially checking the tags under the selected power and the second set number of frequencies through at least two external antennas;
counting the number of labels checked by at least two external antennas at each frequency;
and determining the frequency, the rank of the number of the tags counted by each external antenna in the at least two external antennas is positioned before the first set number, as the selected frequency of the corresponding external antenna.
Because factors such as external environment and the like change under different application scenarios, frequency calibration needs to be performed periodically, a frequency calibration period can be set, a frequency calibration instruction can be automatically sent when the frequency calibration period expires, and the frequency calibration period can be set according to actual needs, for example, the frequency calibration period can be set to be 24 hours, 48 hours, 29 hours and the like; frequency calibration instructions can also be initiated manually; other situations are also possible and will not be described one by one here. When a frequency calibration command is detected, frequency calibration may be performed to determine a selected frequency for each external antenna. Since the external antennas usually support a plurality of frequencies, sometimes several tens of frequencies, and when performing S21-S25, if these frequencies are all used for tag inventory, it takes a long time, so that several preferred frequencies of each external antenna can be determined to be used for tag inventory, and a preferred manner can determine a frequency ranking the number of tags inventorized by each of the at least two external antennas before the first set number as the selected frequency of the corresponding external antenna.
