Abstract:
An apparatus for emulating multiple RFID tags in a supply chain/logistics network, comprising: an RFID transceiver for receiving an RF command from an interrogator, a controller for converting the received RF command into a digitized message, an RFID emulation unit for retrieving or storing identification data with respect to the multiple differing RFID tags, wherein the RFID emulation unit retrieves or stores identification data in one or more ID repositories with respect to one or more product RFID tags, one or more case RFID tags and a pallet RFID tag and the controller responding to the interrogator with a single ID retrieved from the one or more ID repositories contain information as to the one or more product RFID tags, one or more case RFID tags and a pallet RFID tag, wherein the RFID emulation unit retrieves or stores the identification data on a remote server over the Internet or locally in non-volatile memory of each apparatus. In addition, the apparatus can contain a housing, a handle and a display screen and an input device to allow a user at any point in the supply chain/logistic network to quickly determine information on the products, cases or pallet.
