RFID positioning transmitting receiving apparatus, system and method
Technical field
The present invention relates to radio RF recognition technology, particularly the technology of article location is a kind of RFID positioning transmitting receiving apparatus, system and method concretely.
Background technology
Radio RF recognition technology (RFID) is a kind of and bar code recognition, optical character identification, the automatic identification technology that smart card and biological assay etc. are arranged side by side.Rfid system is by being stored in the unique identifier in the RFID transponder to the emission of RFID reader, for example electronic product code (EPC) sign indicating number carries out article or identification.The RFID transponder can differently be compressed for hundreds of different application.Certainly, according to energy supply, the RFID transponder is divided into passive transponder and active transmitter transponder.The active transmitter transponder has their power supply, is generally battery, perhaps is sun power or other energy.Passive transponder does not have corresponding power-supply device, the substitute is it and collect the electric wave that the RFID card reader is launched, use as power supply, therefore, it is more cheap that passive transponder is compared active transmitter transponder cost, and higher range of application is arranged.
The RFID technology generally is applied in the wireless communication field between RFID reader and the label.Rfid system comes canned data by label, and searches information on the label by reader.This is a kind of automatic identification technology that originated from the radar theory in 1948 that comes across.Through the development in 30 years, the RFID technology was ripe gradually, in the eighties of last century the eighties is moved towards from the laboratory in fact also to use.Now, the RFID technology progressively come into vogue and establish in the animal of for example logistics field, feed lot identify, field of traffic.Though the standard of RFID is determined also to have some problems in China, the wireless communication technology popular as future is expected very much.Not only because the cost of RFID reader and label very low (price of reader is a hundreds of yuan, and the price of label only be several yuans), and label is small-sized, can be attached to the surperficial of article or place the inside of article.
And RFID mainly is applied to logistics field at present.The object information that the RFID label is accompanying, goods order information in the warehouse for example, original producton location information, Business Information or the like can be stored automatically, and retrieval also obtains.This technology can also be applied to retail trade, and for example in the supermarket, the RFID technology can be replaced existing bar code and be come commodity are differentiated.Use the bar code client to pay at the cashier scanning bar code at present, and use the RFID technology, client can pass through scanning area fast, thereby improves the efficient of EXIT.Other RFID The Application of Technology are, the management in the gateway, and the animal of feed lot is distinguished, library management, automobile is differentiated management etc. in traffic.
Sometimes people often forget the thing that some are important, key for example, card, confidential data or the like.Usually people need a large amount of time to seek these things, and this can bring very big trouble to the user sometimes.
In the prior art, global position system GPS and Bluetooth technology are that object is sought two kinds of optional methods.Certainly, they and be not suitable for the searching of everyday objects.With regard to the GPS technology, the object possibility volume that daily need is sought is very little, be difficult in applying GPS on this object, GPS equipment volume for this object is relatively too big, and the cost of GPS equipment is too high, for for example card, be not directly proportional on the technical costs of article cost such as key and application.And the price of Bluetooth technology and volume also have the deficiency of this two aspect, the volume of bluetooth equipment is not suitable for every-day objects such as key, and the cost of this equipment is also very high, and the user is inconvenient certainly when using extra device and tediously long object ID to seek article.
The performance of present locating device, the deficiency of aspects such as the size of profile and installation cost is to such an extent as to can not well solve the problem of every-day object location.
Also having a kind of automatic speech recognition (ASR) technology of mobile device at present, is to order input technology very easily.The ASR technology comes across the fifties in last century, is used for the computer Recognition voice command, makes computing machine become human assistant better.Originally ASR system is merely able to discern 10 English alphabets, and along with the development of signal Processing and dynamic routine algorithm, the ASR system can discern the voice messaging of up to a hundred words of different user afterwards.Now, based on hidden markov model (HMM:HiddenMarkov Model) algorithm, can discern more substantial continuous word.Speech recognition system by PC platform and speaker-independent can be in recognizing voice information in the quiet environment, and its discrimination is up to more than 90%.Present ASR system has been integrated in portable terminal.This has brought corresponding problem, for example in noisy environment, influenced the collection of voice, the restriction of storer and processor becomes the ASR of portable terminal and makes people's satisfaction inadequately, but other at that time dictionary is very little, and recognition effect still can allow the people accept when for example having only 20-50 word.
Summary of the invention
In order to overcome the above problems, the object of the present invention is to provide a kind of RFID positioning transmitting receiving apparatus, system and method, be used for searching the little article of daily life.Because purpose of the present invention, the article number that needs the location is not a lot, have only usually several, like this ASR technology is applied to portable terminal after, it is no problem utilizing its voice messaging that is used to discern a small amount of Item Title.In this way, the user can be more easily title by saying article just can voice operating mobile terminal seeking article, and do not need to remember a large amount of label ID.
