基于RFID的定位跟踪管理技术研究与开发
|
摘要
定位跟踪管理被认为是无线射频识别技术(RFID)的下一个重要发展方向。RFID技术在实现定位跟踪管理平台的灵活性、可维护性和可扩展性方面具有巨大的潜力。现有RFID定位跟踪应用系统多为专用系统,可移植性差,不能为类似的定位跟踪应用系统的开发提供便利。
本课题提出基于RFID的定位跟踪管理平台来为定位跟踪应用的开发者提供服务。基于RFID的定位跟踪管理平台必须能够根据不同应用的需求进行RFID设备快速部署,调整RFID设备属性和相互之间的逻辑关系,并且能够快速有效地生成各种有意的基于位置的信息和服务。通过管理平台根据动态订阅的服务的要求为不同的基于位置信息的应用提供服务。定位跟踪应用的开发者只需要根据要求订阅服务,而无需从底层开始对应用进行设计和实现,大大降低了开发应用的工作量,提高了应用的实现效率。
本文从设计定位跟踪管理平台的构架入手,详细分析了构架中各个模块的功能,指出了RFID事件规则引擎的重要性。由于RFID数据的特殊性和RFID定位跟踪事件的独特性,使得RFID事件规则难以像其他业务逻辑那样描述为常规的XML/java规则文件的形式,为应用的开发者带来了不便。为此,我们对现有的事件描述语言进行了改进和扩充,设计了RFID事件描述语言,并将RFID事件描述语言描述的规则自动转换为标准的规则文件。在RFID事件描述语言中,包括对上下文的查询和推理能力,在本文中,我们也根据RFID事件的实际应用,对上下文知识的表示和推理机制进行实现。
Locating and tracking management is considered to be the next home for Radio Frequency Identification (RFID). RFID technology has gained a great potential in locating and tracking management to achieve the flexibility, maintainability and extensibility of the system. Existing RFID locating and tracking system is special-purpose system. It can not be used in other place directly. It can not provide convenience to develop the new locating and tracking system.
This paper focuses on developing RFID-based locating and tracking management platform to provide the service to the developer of the locating and tracking application. The RFID-based locating and tracking management system must be deployed quickly, modify the attributes of the RFID devices and the logistic relations between the RFID devices according to the requirements of the different applications and generate location data and location service fast and efficiently. Through the platform, we can provide service to different location-based application. The developers can subscribe the service to implement the application and need not to design the application from the low level.
Firstly, we design the structure of RFID-based locating and tracking management service platform. RFID event rule engine is very important. Because of the particularity of the RFID data and RFID locating and tracking event, RFID event rule can not be described in common XML/java rule form as other business logistic and makes trouble to the developer. So we modify and develop the existing event describing language to form the RFID event describing language. The platform can transfers the RFID event rule to the common rule file. The RFID describing language includes the inquiring and reasoning context knowledge. In this paper, according to the application of the RFID event, we research the context knowledge and the reasoning of it.
