Container transportation system using 2.45GHz active RFID technology

The application of RFID technology on container make the container transportation effective, convenient and safe. An active 2.45GHz RFID system based on MSP430 series MCU and nRF24L01 low power radio transceiver chip is introduced in this article with emphasis on the system´s hardware design, realization scheme of anti-collision algorithm and realization of tag´s low power consumption. This active RFID system designed in this article can be used as automatic identification remotely for containers in the environment of the terminals.
