Abstract

A monitoring microsystem is designed based on multi-data acquisition and radio frequency identification(RFID). The acceleration, humidity and temperature are monitored during the logistics process. These data will be recorded and an alarm will be sent to the driver through wireless communication, when they exceed the threshold. The microsystem consists of three parts, multi-data acquisition module based on accelerometer and temperature/humidity microsensor, a RFID-based wireless communication module and an alarm module. This system can monitor dangerous cargo state accurately in a variety of harsh environments, and reduce the damage-rate and accident-rate of dangerous cargo in transportation effectively.
