MULTIPLE WIRELESS PROTOCOLS IOT SENSOR FOR ASSET TRACKING AND MONITORING

Background

Most exisiting positioning tracking devices/tags support only a single wireless protocol such as Bluetooth, WiFi or UWB. As there is no standardisation on positioning technology to be used indoor, a positioning device supporting only a single wireless protocol failed to function at location where the beacons supporting the wireless protocol is not available or the signals are too weak to be useful.

It is therefore desired to design and develop a sensor device to connect, track and monitor mobility assets and personnel with high level of accuracy for both indoor and outdoor environments. The sensor device should be network-agnostic, and is interoperable with various different network protocols, e.g., cellular, WiFi, BLE, etc. It should be able to automatically switch between the various protocols based on the network with the strongest signal strength as it transits through different environments.
