Abstract

Nowadays, most hotels and hospitals that use a lot of linens every day have linen monitoring issues. Staff in hotels and hospitals need to manually monitor the linen, which is inefficient and prone to some human errors. For example, the staff enters wrong data in the database, the staff counts the wrong number of linens, which can lead to data loss and inaccurate. Since RFID is a tracking system that uses radio frequency to search, identify, track, and communicate with items and people, it is very suitable for linen monitoring systems. In this project, RFID will be used to build a linen monitoring system for UTAR Hospital. Compared with the ordinary linen monitoring system, the monitoring system using RFID will be more user-friendly and efficient. The purpose of the system is to monitor the quantity and condition of the linens when they are sent for use and when they are brought to laundromats for laundering. This project will focus on the RFID mobile reader, which is a reader that user can carry to anywhere and anytime to scan the RFID tags. Compare with RFID gantry reader, RFID mobile reader will be more convenient and suitable for hotel or hospital which have a large area and large amount of linens.
