- Abstract
- A testbed for parcel handling has been experimentally proposed to show the entire parcel handling process from pick up to delivery with emerging RFID technology. Current barcode system in postal service requires time consuming scanning process on each item that causes numerous overtime loads for field workers. RFID technology can speed up the entire parcel handling process by multi-tag recognition. Result shows successful parcel recognition at each check point and real time information system captures those recognized information. The test result also suggests some challenges must be overcome before adopting RFID in the real field.
