ORDER PICKING SYSTEM EVALUATION USING RTLS METHOD

Abstract

  In order to maintain competitiveness, it is essential for modern industrial companies to record as much data as possible, by processing which they can obtain valuable information for the development and optimization of production and logistics processes. The RTLS system provides an opportunity to perform this task. RTLS, or Real Time Location System, is a Real-Time Local Positioning System used to identify people and moving objects and to determine and continuously track their current position in a configurable space. Real-time positioning can help us to locate the position of objects and people inside the building. The paper presents and compares the relevant RTLS systems used in practice. In addition, the implementation process of an RTLS system created at the Institute of Logistics is described, as well as its application potential in relation to a case study developed. he abstract contains a short, general description of the topic and the research shown in the paper.
