Abstract

In maritime logistics, a large number of containers are transported to the destination through a port in the form of composite transportation such as ships, trucks, and railways. Logistics parties such as shipping companies and consignors prefer having the real-time information on the entry and exit of the logistics hubs of the freight. Particularly, a port is an important space that connects the maritime and inland areas. Hence, the interest about freight of the logistics party in port is high. This study describes tracking the location of freight by using GPS dynamically based on area type rather than point type. This presents dynamic information of location tracking when the freight enters, exits from, and passes through a certain port area. I suggest a real-time location of the container cargos tracking algorithm in port-entry, port-exit, and port inside using Active IP-RFID technology based on the location tracking algorithm of previous research.

해운 물류에서 대량의 컨테이너는 선박, 트럭, 철도 등 복합 운송의 형태로 항만을 거쳐 목적지로 이동된다. 선사, 화주와 같은 물류 주체는 화물의 주요 물류 거점에 대한 실시간 반 출입 정보를 필요로 한다. 특히 항만은 해운과 내륙을 연결하는 중요한 공간으로써 물류 주체의 관심이 높다. 본 논문에서는 GPS를 이용한 위치 추적을 점 단위가 아닌 면 단위를 기반으로 동적으로 나타낸다. 즉 어느 항만의 영역 안으로 들어가는지, 나가는지, 또는 통과하는지와 같은 동적인 위치 추적을 나타내고 있다. 이전 연구의 위치 추적 알고리즘을 기반으로 능동형(Active) IP-RFID 기술을 활용한 항만 진출입, 항만 내부에서의 실시간 위치 추적 알고리즘을 제안한다.
