Description
技术领域technical field
本发明涉及一种对一RFID阅读器所检测到的多个RFID应答器的顺序进行识别的方法。The invention relates to a method for identifying the sequence of a plurality of RFID transponders detected by an RFID reader.
背景技术Background technique
用于阅读RFID应答器的RFID阅读器目前普遍应用于需要对诸如计件物品等对象进行分类和分配的领域。因此,这类RFID阅读器越来越多地应用于行李分拣系统或邮件分配中心,以确保对行李件和邮包进行快速分类和输送。安装在各计件物品上的应答器上存储有关于该计件物品目的地的信息。在特定的阅读站上通过RFID阅读器从各应答器中读出这些信息,以便利用固定在行李件或邮包上的应答器及其所包含的信息对这些行李件或邮包进行分配或通过行李分拣系统进行输送。亦即,根据存储在RFID应答器上的数据来决定相应行李件或邮包的输送路线。RFID readers for reading RFID transponders are currently commonly used in fields where objects such as piece count items need to be sorted and distributed. Therefore, such RFID readers are increasingly used in baggage sorting systems or mail distribution centers to ensure fast sorting and delivery of luggage and postal parcels. A transponder mounted on each piece item stores information about the destination of the piece item. The information is read out from each transponder by the RFID reader on a specific reading station, so that the luggage or postal bag can be distributed by using the transponder fixed on the luggage or postal bag and the information contained therein, or by luggage sorting. Picking system for delivery. That is, the transport route of the respective piece of luggage or postal parcel is determined on the basis of the data stored on the RFID transponder.
有鉴于此,在对RFID应答器进行读写的过程中,特别是对由RFID阅读室(RFID-Lesekabine)控制的计件物品的顺序进行正确的识别对顺利输送的实现而言至关重要。正确识别输送对象的顺序这一点尤其事关计件物品的快速密集输送。如果识别有误,计件物品可能会被传向错误方向或送往错误的目的地。正是在以快速输送为目标的行李输送系统或邮件分配中心,行李件或邮包以适当间距快速经过所述RFID阅读器。这就可能出现这个RFID阅读器同时对多个分属于不同邮包或行李件的应答器进行检测从而无法明确识别的情况,这就会导致错误的分类情形的发生。In view of this, in the process of reading and writing the RFID transponder, especially the correct identification of the sequence of the piece counting items controlled by the RFID reading room (RFID-Lesekabine) is very important for the realization of smooth transportation. The correct recognition of the sequence of the conveyed objects is particularly relevant for the rapid and dense conveying of piece goods. If identified incorrectly, piece count items may be routed in the wrong direction or sent to the wrong destination. It is precisely in baggage conveyor systems or mail distribution centers that aim at fast transportation that pieces of luggage or postal parcels pass said RFID readers rapidly at appropriate intervals. This may lead to the situation that the RFID reader detects multiple transponders belonging to different parcels or luggage at the same time, so that it cannot be clearly identified, which will lead to the occurrence of wrong classification situations.
为了防止发生上述错误,目前主要采用经屏蔽处理的阅读室来确保RFID阅读器尽可能只识别位于阅读室内的对象。为了保证对依次穿过阅读室的对象的顺序进行无错识别,必须使对象之间保持一个与这些对象速度相配的特定最小间距。然而,最好是在缩短这一间距的同时仍能对RFID应答器进行可靠识别,进而对所述应答器及那些经过RFID阅读器的对象进行可靠分配。In order to prevent the above-mentioned errors, shielded reading rooms are mainly used at present to ensure that the RFID readers only recognize objects located in the reading room as much as possible. In order to ensure an error-free recognition of the sequence of objects passing successively through the reading room, a certain minimum distance must be maintained between the objects, which is adapted to the speed of these objects. However, it would be desirable to reduce this distance while still enabling reliable identification of RFID transponders and thus reliable allocation of said transponders and those objects that pass the RFID reader.
发明内容Contents of the invention
有鉴于此,本发明的目的是提供一种对RFID应答器和各相关对象的顺序进行可靠识别的方法。In view of this, it is an object of the present invention to provide a method for the reliable identification of the sequence of RFID transponders and the respective associated objects.
本发明用来达成这个目的的解决方案是一种对由一RFID阅读器所检测到的数个RFID应答器的顺序进行识别的方法,其中,所述数个RFID应答器分属数个对象,所述对象在一输送线上运动并经过所述RFID阅读器;当一对象在所述输送线的两个规定点之间运动时,将所有检测到的RFID应答器分配给这个对象;为每个RFID应答器测定一个表示所述RFID应答器位于所述对象上的概率的品质值;如果测得的所述品质值小于一个第一规定阈值,就解除这个RFID应答器与所述对象之间的分配关系。The solution of the invention for achieving this object is a method for identifying the sequence of several RFID transponders detected by an RFID reader, wherein said several RFID transponders belong to several objects, The object moves on a conveyor line and passes the RFID reader; when an object moves between two specified points on the conveyor line, all detected RFID transponders are assigned to this object; for each An RFID transponder measures a quality value representing the probability that the RFID transponder is located on the object; if the measured quality value is less than a first prescribed threshold, the communication between the RFID transponder and the object is released. distribution relationship.
本发明基于以下认识:通过产生一个表示分配给某一对象的一应答器被检测到的频次的品质值,可为判断该相应应答器与这个对象之间的正确分配关系提供一项评价尺度。所述品质值是一个绝对度量,因为它是根据被分配给某一对象的一应答器被检测到的次数总和而得出。通过这种方式可为在阅读室内被RFID阅读器检测到的每个应答器分配一个值,随后通过将这个值与一规定阈值进行简单比较来得出与所述对象有关的这个应答器的检测情况。通过在一规定时间段内检测所述应答器并测定所述品质值,可以方便地将该应答器分配给相应对象,这个时间段指的是该对象在输送线上的一规定起点和一规定终点之间运动的期间。这就可以在该对象从一规定起点运动到一规定终点期间准确测定所述应答器的被阅读的频次。通过这种方式就可以方便地将应答器的受检测情况分配给相应对象。The invention is based on the realization that by generating a quality value representing the frequency with which a transponder assigned to an object is detected, an evaluation criterion can be provided for judging the correct assignment of the corresponding transponder to this object. The quality value is an absolute measure, since it is derived from the sum of the number of times a transponder assigned to an object has been detected. In this way, each transponder detected by an RFID reader in the reading room can be assigned a value, and the detection of this transponder in relation to the object in question can then be obtained by a simple comparison of this value with a defined threshold . The transponder can be easily assigned to the corresponding object by detecting the transponder and determining the quality value within a defined time period, which refers to a defined starting point and a defined value of the object on the conveyor line. The period of motion between endpoints. This makes it possible to accurately determine how often the transponder is read during the movement of the object from a defined starting point to a defined end point. In this way, the detection of the transponder can be easily assigned to the corresponding object.
所述品质值的计算方式简单,并且可以在带着相应应答器的行李件或邮包经过RFID阅读器的过程中直接进行。这样在输送过程中就已经测定了一个品质值并据此将应答器分配给相应对象。The calculation of the quality value is simple and can be carried out directly during the passage of the luggage or postal package with the corresponding transponder through the RFID reader. A quality value is thus already determined during the transport process and the transponder is assigned to the corresponding object accordingly.
其中,优选根据一应答器所受到的所有检测的次数总和来确定所测得的品质值。这项法则简单易行并能快速可靠地测定所述应答器的品质值。多次检测指的是以下情况:RFID阅读器的多个布置于阅读室内的天线同时识别到所述应答器,或者所述对象以某种方式穿过阅读室,使得所述应答器在RFID阅读器的多个扫描周期内被识别到。In this case, the measured quality value is preferably determined from the sum of all detection times a transponder is subjected to. This law is simple to implement and allows a fast and reliable determination of the quality value of the transponder. Multiple detection refers to the following situations: multiple antennas of the RFID reader arranged in the reading room simultaneously recognize the transponder, or the object passes through the reading room in such a way that the transponder detected within multiple scan cycles of the device.
本发明的一种有利实施方案,其特征在于,将一个第一RFID应答器在所述对象在所述两个点之间运动过程中所测得的品质值与下一个RFID应答器在所述对象在所述两个点之间运动过程中所测得的品质值进行比较。An advantageous embodiment of the invention is characterized in that the quality value measured by a first RFID transponder during the movement of the object between the two points is compared with the quality value of the next RFID transponder in the The quality values measured during the movement of the object between the two points are compared.
这里是简单地对下述情况加以了利用,即:在某一对象穿过阅读室的过程中为每个应答器确定一品质值。这个品质值可以与该对象穿过阅读室时被阅读到的另一个应答器的品质值进行比较。举例而言,当某一对象在用于检测的所述两个点(起点和终点)之间运动时,如果一个第一应答器被检测到四次,而一个第二应答器只被检测到两次,则该第一应答器的品质值就大于该第二应答器的品质值。如果现在为这两个品质值建立关联,就可以得到一个用来判断该应答器与该对象间有否实现正确分配的值。在最简单的情况下,这个值就是被检测到的应答器的那两个品质值之商。如果这个商超过一规定阈值,就将先检测到的那个应答器与所述对象间的分配关系解除。这样对于每个应答器而言,都存在一个评价函数,在此基础上可以测定是否存在一应答器与一对象的从属关系。一直实施这种方法或进行这种计算,直至在所述对象位于检测线的所述起点和所述终点之间的某一时间点上被检测到的所有应答器都得到了相互比较为止。最终,具有更佳品质值的那个应答器将会被分配给所述对象。Simple use is made here of the fact that a quality value is determined for each transponder during the passage of an object through the reading room. This quality value can be compared to the quality value of another transponder that the object was read as it passed through the reading room. For example, if a first transponder is detected four times and a second transponder is detected only twice, the quality value of the first transponder is greater than the quality value of the second transponder. If you now associate these two quality values, you can get a value that can be used to determine whether the correct assignment between the transponder and the object has been achieved. In the simplest case, this value is the quotient of the two quality values of the detected transponders. If this quotient exceeds a defined threshold value, the assignment of the transponder detected first to the object is released. For each transponder, there is thus an evaluation function on the basis of which it can be determined whether a transponder is associated with an object. This method is carried out or this calculation is performed until all transponders detected at a point in time when the object is located between the start and the end of the detection line have been compared with each other. Eventually, the transponder with the better quality value will be assigned to the object.
本发明的另一有利实施方案,其特征在于,将为一RFID应答器针对一个第一对象而测定的品质值与为同一个应答器针对下一个对象而测定的品质值进行比较。通过这种方法可以测定所述应答器针对多个连续对象的受检测的品质并将这些受检测的品质进行相互比较,由此可对该应答器与所述对象间的分配关系仍不确定的情况进行整理。其中,对该应答器进行针对多个在前对象及多个在后对象的评价。对已分配给当前对象的所有应答器进行这种评价。举例而言,可以统计一个第一应答器针对一个第一对象被检测到的频次。接下来将这个值与同一应答器针对下一对象被检测到的频次进行比较。在此同样规定一评价函数,该评价函数的基础是所述第一应答器在当前对象中的检测品质与同一个应答器在比较对象中的检测品质之商。如果该评价函数的商超过一规定阈值,就解除这个经检验的应答器与当前对象间的分配关系。对所有针对一个当前对象而被检测到的应答器都进行这种评价。同样也可以针对所有的在后对象进行这种评价。通过这种方式,即通过在一个对象范围内对各个应答器的品质进行评价以及在多个对象范围对某一个特定的应答器的品质进行评价,总体上可以可靠地测定所述各应答器经过RFID阅读单元的顺序。A further advantageous embodiment of the invention is characterized in that the quality value determined for an RFID transponder for a first object is compared with the quality value determined for the same transponder for the next object. In this way, the detected qualities of the transponder for several consecutive objects can be determined and compared with each other, so that the assignment of the transponder to the object is still undetermined The situation is sorted out. In this case, the transponder is evaluated for a plurality of preceding objects and a plurality of subsequent objects. This evaluation is performed for all transponders that have been assigned to the current object. For example, the frequency with which a first transponder is detected for a first object can be counted. This value is then compared to how often the same transponder was detected for the next object. Here too, an evaluation function is defined, which is based on the quotient of the detection quality of the first transponder in the current object and the detection quality of the same transponder in the comparison object. If the quotient of the merit function exceeds a defined threshold value, the assignment of the verified transponder to the current object is released. This evaluation is carried out for all transponders detected for a current object. This evaluation can likewise be carried out for all subsequent objects. In this way, by evaluating the quality of the individual transponders within an object and of a particular transponder over several objects, it is generally possible to reliably determine the Sequence of RFID reading units.
也可以先在多个对象范围内对某一特定应答器的品质进行比较,然后再在一个对象范围内对各应答器进行评价。这一方案尤其适用于以下情况:各个连续排列应答器的接收品质例如受其在所述对象上的不利位置影响而波动很大。假设某一应答器被读到的次数很多而下一个应答器被读到的次数却很少,那么对这两个应答器所进行的针对某一对象的分析就会得出错误的分配关系。It is also possible to first compare the quality of a particular transponder within a range of objects and then evaluate the transponders within a range of objects. This approach is particularly suitable when the reception quality of the individual serially aligned transponders fluctuates greatly, for example due to their unfavorable position on the object. If one transponder is read a lot and the next transponder is read a few times, an analysis of the two transponders for a certain object will result in a wrong assignment.
上述方法尤其适用于以下情况:大量被分配了应答器的对象高速经过一RFID阅读器,存储在各应答器上的信息被读取,以便根据这些读出的数据将该对象进一步送往一个特定的方向。由此可见,本发明的方法可应用在任何一种形式的单件物品分类系统上。因此也可用在需要根据工件的特性分别用不同路线进行输送或者用不同方法进行进一步加工的生产设备上。所述方法同样可应用于在高架仓库中对材料或工件进行分类。The method described above is especially suitable for the following situations: a large number of objects assigned transponders pass through an RFID reader at high speed, and the information stored on each transponder is read in order to further send the object to a specific RFID reader based on the read data. direction. It can be seen that the method of the present invention can be applied to any type of single item classification system. Therefore, it can also be used in production equipment that needs to be transported by different routes or further processed by different methods according to the characteristics of the workpiece. The method is also applicable for sorting materials or workpieces in high-bay warehouses.
本发明的方法可以即使在输送速度很快且各对象间距较小的情况下也能实现对所述对象的可靠分配。这种可靠性可以通过所述品质评价函数和相应的阈值来加以调整。本发明的方法还可将意外检测到的其他对象的应答器可靠地滤除掉,这类检测是由于结构方面的原因通过反射而产生的。将不同对象的应答器进行比较可提高一个应答器被可靠地分配给一个对象的概率。这一点在待检测对象间距较小的情况下显得尤为突出。The method according to the invention enables a reliable assignment of the objects even at high transport speeds and at small distances between the objects. This reliability can be adjusted via the merit function and the corresponding threshold. The method according to the invention also reliably filters out transponders of other objects which are accidentally detected, such detections being produced by reflection for structural reasons. Comparing transponders of different subjects increases the probability that a transponder is reliably assigned to a subject. This is especially prominent when the distance between the objects to be detected is small.
附图说明Description of drawings
下面借助附图对本发明进行详细说明和阐述,其中:The present invention is described in detail and set forth below with the aid of accompanying drawing, wherein:
图1为一输送系统的示意图;以及Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of a delivery system; and
图2为本发明方法的流程图。Fig. 2 is a flow chart of the method of the present invention.
具体实施方式Detailed ways
图1展示的是一个用于输送对象O的输送系统,所述对象可以是计件物品,例如邮包、行李件、工件或工件载体。所述对象由一输送线f输送。这些对象在输送过程中穿过一个包含有一RFID阅读器L的阅读室。每个对象O各分配有一个RFID应答器T。在该阅读室中,由此处具有数个天线LG的RFID阅读器L对各应答器T进行检测。在此过程中测定对象O和应答器T在输送线f上的运动顺序。随后根据测得的顺序用不同的路线进一步输送对象O,例如将这些对象送往两个不同目的地Z1、Z2。FIG. 1 shows a conveyor system for conveying objects O, which can be piece items such as mail bags, luggage, workpieces or workpiece carriers. The objects are conveyed by a conveying line f. The objects pass through a reading room containing an RFID reader L during transport. Each object O is assigned an RFID transponder T. In this reading room, the individual transponders T are detected by an RFID reader L which here has several antennas LG. In the process, the movement sequence of the object O and the transponder T on the conveyor line f is determined. Depending on the measured sequence, the objects O are then transported further by different routes, for example to two different destinations Z1 , Z2 .
图2为一流程图,该流程图展示的是本发明对RFID应答器进行顺序识别的方法的各步骤。Fig. 2 is a flowchart showing the steps of the method for sequentially identifying RFID transponders according to the present invention.
步骤1:在一规定阅读区内对检测到的所有应答器进行分配:Step 1: Assign all transponders detected within a defined reading zone:
在对象O在输送线f上运动的过程中,将在一规定起点和一规定终点之间检测到的所有应答器分配给这个对象O。During the movement of an object O on the conveyor line f, all transponders detected between a defined start point and a defined end point are assigned to this object O.
其中规定如下:It stipulates as follows:
fA=输送区起点f A = starting point of conveying area
fE=输送区终点f E = end of conveying area
步骤2:针对每个对象测定应答器的品质:Step 2: Determine the quality of the transponders for each object:
测定每个应答器T的品质Q,该品质与应答器T位于所述对象上的概率相关:The quality Q of each transponder T is determined, which is related to the probability that the transponder T is located on the object:
Q(Ti)=应答器Ti的品质。Q(T i ) = Quality of transponder T i .
在简单情况下,所述品质是应答器Ti被检测到的所有次数的总和:In the simple case, the quality is the sum of all times a transponder T i has been detected:
如果Q(Ti)小于一规定阈值S,就解除应答器与一个对象的分配关系。If Q(T i ) is smaller than a defined threshold S, the assignment of the transponder to an object is released.
步骤3:针对不同对象评价应答器:Step 3: Evaluate transponders against different objects:
步骤2结束后仍存在一些情况,即不确定是否所有经分配和评价的应答器实际也从属于所述对象。为此需要在步骤3中测定关于数个连续对象的应答器及其品质。规定一评价函数Boi,该评价函数与关于数个对象的某一应答器Ti相关。一般而言,就是为m个在前对象和n个在后对象评价应答器Ti。对已分配给当前对象的所有应答器进行这种评价。当n个在后对象离开步骤1所述的规定阅读区后,可针对一特定对象开始实施步骤3。After step 2 has been completed, there are still cases where it is uncertain whether all assigned and evaluated transponders actually also belong to the object. For this purpose it is necessary in step 3 to determine the transponders and their qualities for several consecutive objects. An evaluation function B oi is specified, which is associated with a certain transponder T i with respect to several objects. In general, transponders T i are evaluated for m preceding objects and n succeeding objects. This evaluation is performed for all transponders that have been assigned to the current object. When n subsequent objects leave the specified reading area described in step 1, step 3 can be implemented for a specific object.
在简单情况下,所述评价函数Boi是比较对象OV中的应答器品质Ti与当前对象OA中的应答器品质Ti之商:In the simple case, the evaluation function B oi is the quotient of the transponder quality T i in the comparison object O V and the transponder quality T i in the current object O A :
评价比较对象的算式是:The formula for evaluating comparison objects is:
如果将步骤2中测定应答器品质的简单情况考虑在内,则评价当前对象的算式是:Taking into account the simple case of determining the quality of the transponder in step 2, the formula for evaluating the current object is:
评价比较对象的算式是:The formula for evaluating comparison objects is:
在最简单的情况下,这只是与在前对象和在后对象进行比较。In the simplest case, this is just a comparison with the preceding object and the following object.
步骤3.1:对一应答器进行针对在前对象OV的评价:Step 3.1: Evaluate a transponder against the preceding object O V :
如果关于当前对象OA的评价函数超过一个规定阈值S,就从该当前对象中移除应答器Ti。对该当前对象的所有应答器都进行这种评价。If the evaluation function of the current object O A When a defined threshold S is exceeded, the transponder T i is removed from the current object. This evaluation is carried out for all transponders of the current object.
如果关于在前对象的评价函数超过一个规定阈值S,就从该在前对象中移除应答器Ti。对该当前对象的所有应答器都进行这种评价。If the merit function of the previous object When a defined threshold S is exceeded, the transponder T i is removed from the preceding object. This evaluation is carried out for all transponders of the current object.
步骤3.2:对一应答器进行针对在后对象ON的评价:Step 3.2: Evaluate a transponder for subsequent object ON :
如果关于当前对象OA的评价函数超过一个规定阈值S,就从该当前对象中移除应答器Ti。对该当前对象的所有应答器都进行这种评价。If the evaluation function of the current object O A When a defined threshold S is exceeded, the transponder T i is removed from the current object. This evaluation is carried out for all transponders of the current object.
如果关于在后对象ON的评价函数BN(OA,ON,Ti)超过一个规定阈值S,就从该在后对象中移除应答器Ti。对该当前对象的所有应答器都进行这种评价。If the evaluation function B N ( OA , ON , T i ) for the subsequent object ON exceeds a defined threshold value S, the transponder T i is removed from the subsequent object. This evaluation is carried out for all transponders of the current object.
步骤4:对步骤3中余下的应答器进行评价:Step 4: Evaluate the remaining transponders from Step 3:
为了确定一应答器是否实际也从属于某一对象,最后还可为每个应答器Ti都设定一评价函数B,该评价函数对各应答器进行相对于一个第二应答器Tj的评价。如果这个评价函数超过一个规定阈值S,就移除这个应答器Ti。In order to determine whether a transponder actually also belongs to an object, an evaluation function B can finally be assigned to each transponder T i , which compares each transponder with respect to a second transponder T j evaluate. If the merit function exceeds a defined threshold S, the transponder T i is removed.
从对象Ti中移除应答器。 Removes the transponder from the object T i .
在简单情况下,这个评价函数是Tj的品质与Ti的品质之商In the simple case, this merit function is the quotient of the quality of T j and the quality of T i
如果将步骤2中测定品质的简单情况考虑在内,则得出的结果是:If the simple case of determining quality in step 2 is taken into account, the result is:
如果将阈值S设定为2,那么当应答器Tj的受检测次数大于因数2时,就将应答器Ti移除。If the threshold S is set to 2, the transponder T i is removed when the number of times the transponder T j has been detected is greater than a factor of 2.
如果在某一时间点上检测到的所有应答器都已经过相互比较,就结束步骤2。If all transponders detected at a certain point in time have been compared with each other, step 2 ends.
对于本发明而言,实施本发明方法步骤时是否完全按照上述顺序并不重要。也可以在步骤1和步骤2完毕后先实施前述步骤4再实施步骤3,这同样可以达到对RFID应答器和运动对象进行可靠识别的目的。For the present invention, it is immaterial whether the steps of the method of the present invention are carried out in exactly the order described above. It is also possible to implement the aforementioned step 4 and then implement step 3 after the completion of steps 1 and 2, which can also achieve the purpose of reliably identifying the RFID transponder and the moving object.
