TSA worldwide RFID Trial History During the 1999 - 2006, a number of trials have been conducted between airports, airlines and manufacturers. The main results are summarized in the following table.

ASTREC Research Effort in RFID ASTREC stands for "Advanced Airport Systems Technology Research Consortium" The purpose of ASTREC is to promote the use of RFID technology in an airport environ- -ment and establish a technology base for the advanced airport system such as baggage handling, in a further diverse and advanced information-based society

What is Inflight RFID RFID Inflight services included 1. Catering Equipment: All rotatable equipment used for catering including trolleys, boxes, ovens, etc 2. Trolley: Container on wheels (trolley, cart, etc.) 3. Box: Container carried by hand (carrier, canister, stowage unit, etc.) FAA AC 20-162 on board RFID standard (Inflight) UHF RFID reader
Inflight RFID Why Inflight RFID Main challenges the Airline facing today 1. Airline do not know precisely how many trolleys and boxes they actually have and where 2. Airline still receive catering equipment inventory counts by fax from kitchens 3. Study show when trolleys and boxes go missing that usually are a. Privately used by stakeholder b. Re-used by another airline with identity change c. Even sold on e-Bay 4. IATA estimates a total of 900,000 trolleys and 1,800,000 boxes at Industry level representing an investment of around US $ 1 billion
Inflight RFID Inflight RFID Technology Selection IATA has performed in 2007 various tests on several RFID technologies: UHF, LF and HF. The UHF passive solution has shown the best performances, particularly with the RFID tag directly mounted on the trolley metal with a read at more than 2 meters of distance. The trolley can be also moved rapidly. A draft Recommended Practice has been produced by the end of 2007 Use of an RFID Tag (UHF passive, 96 bits Class1-gen2). This Recommended Practice is reviewed with airlines and caterers at the end of 2008.
Inflight RFID Technology Trail (UHF) RFID tags already mounted on 1,100 trolleys 1. Washing / Drying at max 80 degrees Celsius Warm tags immediately after leaving the washing machine (80 degrees) Cold tags 30 minutes after washing (20 degrees) 2. Trolley was put in a freezer for at least a half hour at minus 18 degrees Celsius This was repeated 5 times in the morning, 5 times in the afternoon, for 2 days. (5+5)x2=20 times. RFID Class-1 Gen 2 tags mounted on trolleys

Current Airport RFID Deployments In 2007, A&D China, Siemens and SLC China IL engineers discussed and researched for a RFID solution for the Wuhan Tianhe Airport BHS. In the end, the conclusion was to design to a RFID tunnel, using hardware and software from Siemens A&D (Siemens Automation and Drives ). Requirements RFID Read Rate: Minimum successful read rate: 98% Conveyor Speed: Up to 3m/s speed of RFID conveyor, RFID reading without stop of conveyor RFID Reader: Interface: 10/100BaseT Ethernet or IEEE 802.11g RFID frequency: between 850Mhz and 950Mhz Supported standard: ISO-15691; ISO-18000-6-C; ISO-15692 Reusable RFID Tag: Wuhan Airport implements an island solution, the tag cannot be read at other airports additional barcode label must be use Re-usable RFID tag saves approx. 250,000 USD per year

Atlanta International Airport Activity with IATA RFID Committee HJAIA 2009 activity with IATA RFID Committee In 2009 IATA form a task team with-in 1740c Baggage Work Group to start a Global RFID Baggage Tag Purchasing Project that hope to consolidate most of global RFID Bag tag purchase and provide aviation industry the maximum price guaranty. Project approach and methodologies are: Phase 1 – Define the technical benchmark Phase 2 – Global supplies selection process
