Abstract

This paper introduces the hardware and software of the warehouse logistics control and management system based on RFID (Radio Frequency Identification), and explains the design scheme and implementation method of the system. The read/write operation is done using the electronic tag through a tag reader. The logistics control is implemented with PLC by communicating with SIEMENS WinCC configuration software and OPC technology. By accessing a SQL Server, functions such as automatic data storing, querying and deleting of goods and warehouse information are realized. Combining the former technique, the operations such as warehousing, warehouse delivery and goods moving are accomplished. This paper provides an application example of the integration of electronic tag technology and logistics control/management.
