This Small Business Innovation Research Phase I research project is aimed at developing an innovative Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) based warehouse management system utilizing a new patent-pending component that will help to address fundamental shortcomings of present day Ultra-High Frequency (UHF) RFID systems. When integrated with conventional UHF RFID systems for warehouse management, this technology will bring value by enabling precise localization of tagged pallets, localization of forklifts, prevention of cross dock pallet reads, tracking of direction of pallet motion and improving the read rate or read accuracy of pallet tags. The project objectives are directed towards hardware prototyping, protocol implementation, software development and initial pilot deployment. RFID is a rapidly emerging technology with applications in diverse fields such as supply chain management, indoor asset tracking, healthcare and manufacturing. This technology can enhance the handling of material and supply chain operations and the operational efficiency of various businesses processes including greater control over inventory, more accurate production forecasting, and more timely order fulfillment.This award is funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public Law 111-5).

该小企业创新研究第一阶段研究项目旨在开发一种基于射频识别（RFID）的创新仓库管理系统，该系统利用一种新的正在申请专利的组件，这将有助于解决当今超高频（UHF）RFID系统的根本缺陷。当与用于仓库管理的传统UHF RFID系统集成时，该技术将通过实现标记托盘的精确定位、叉车的定位、防止跨码头托盘读取、跟踪托盘运动方向以及提高托盘标签的读取速率或读取准确性而带来价值。该项目的目标是针对硬件原型，协议的实施，软件开发和初步试点部署。RFID是一项迅速发展的技术，应用于供应链管理、室内资产跟踪、医疗保健和制造业等各个领域。该技术可以提高物料和供应链运营的处理能力以及各种业务流程的运营效率，包括更好地控制库存、更准确的生产预测和更及时的订单履行。该奖项由2009年美国复苏和再投资法案（公法111-5）资助。
