RFID Manhole Cover Management System Solution

With the rapid development of urban infrastructure construction in my country, various types of municipal public underground pipeline facilities such as communications, gas, water supply, drainage, heat, and electricity in cities are increasing. Correspondingly, there are more and more manhole covers on urban roads. However, in recent years, due to poor management of urban manhole covers, problems such as theft and damage of manhole covers have occurred frequently, posing a serious threat to the safety of citizens' travel and bringing adverse effects to social order. Therefore, how to improve and strengthen the management of urban manhole covers has become a difficult problem that municipal facilities management departments in various places need to solve urgently.

Especially in some sections of the road, it is difficult to determine the nature of the underground well after the manhole cover is lost, and it is impossible to find the property unit in time for repair. With the maturity of domestic RFID radio frequency technology, the use of RFID radio frequency technology to achieve effective traceability and supervision of manhole covers is no longer an unattainable goal to maintain the safety of roads and underground wells. Through RFID wireless radio frequency technology, each manhole cover and well position is equipped with an electronic tag to record relevant information. Once the manhole cover is lost, just scan the electronic tag to immediately identify the property unit and reinstall it in the shortest time. In addition, each manhole cover is equipped with an RFID electronic tag for easy inspection and management. The traceability and supervision method provides convenience for institutionalized management for relevant departments.

Manhole covers are widely distributed, with large numbers, and difficult to supervise

I. System composition

The RFID manhole cover management system consists of manhole cover-specific RFID electronic tags, RFID Readers, RFID handheld terminals and background management software, and is built based on RFID technology.

II. RFID manhole cover management solution

The core of the RFID manhole cover management solution is to install an RFID tag on each manhole cover. This RFID tag can Store relevant information about the manhole cover, such as location, specifications, maintenance records, etc. Through the RFID reader, the manhole cover information can be read and written. At the same time, the RFID handheld terminal can be used to inspect and inventory the manhole covers.

The specific implementation plan is as follows:

RFID tag installation: Install an RFID tag on each manhole cover. The tag stores the unique identifier of the manhole cover and other relevant information. The RFID tag can be packaged in a waterproof and dustproof form to adapt to various harsh environments.

RFID reader: Install an RFID reader in the manhole cover management center or relevant departments to read and write information on the RFID tag. The RFID reader communicates with the RFID tag through wireless radio frequency technology to achieve contactless data exchange.

RFID handheld terminal: Staff equipped with RFID handheld terminals inspect and count manhole covers. RFID handheld terminals read the information on RFID tags and compare the read data with the database to ensure that the status and location information of the manhole covers are accurate.

Backstage management software: Through the background management software, managers query, count and analyze the manhole cover information, and the management background monitors the status of the manhole cover in real time, including loss, damage, maintenance records, etc., so as to take timely measures.

4. Solution advantages

Improve management efficiency: Through RFID technology, the information of manhole covers can be obtained quickly and accurately, avoiding the cumbersome process of traditional manual recording and query, and improving management efficiency.

Strengthen safety monitoring: Through real-time monitoring and inspection of manhole covers, abnormal conditions of manhole covers, such as loss and damage, can be discovered in time to ensure the safety of citizens' travel.

Data management: Through the background management software, the information of manhole covers is centrally managed and analyzed to provide a scientific basis for decision-making and optimize resource allocation.

5. Importance of RFID management system

RFID electronic tags can adapt to various harsh environments: RFID electronic tags can be packaged into various forms according to the requirements of use, and can adapt to various harsh environments such as oil stains, dust pollution, rain erosion, etc. Therefore, for equipment that is often used outdoors, using RFID tags as Asset identification can effectively solve the problem of damage to tags in the outdoor environment and ensure the safety and reliability of manhole cover data.

Wireless radio frequency technology realizes non-contact reading: Wireless radio frequency technology uses radio carrier communication technology to realize data exchange, which can realize non-contact and invisible reading of tag information. In addition, RFID tags have data storage functions and can repeatedly write data up to 100,000 times. In manhole cover management, the shell is closed after installation and debugging, and it does not need to be opened under normal circumstances.

Record key data in the tag: Using RFID electronic tags as manhole cover label cards, the main information and key data of the manhole cover can be recorded in the tag. Each RFID electronic tag has a globally unique ID number, which is written in ROM process mode during integrated circuit production and cannot be changed. Therefore, RFID electronic tags cannot be copied and replaced. During inventory, there is no need to open the device casing. You only need to use the RFID handheld terminal to read the RFID electronic tag data installed inside the device to obtain the key information of the manhole cover. The RFID electronic tag is installed inside the device, which has stronger security and confidentiality. Under normal conditions, by reading the tag information, you can timely obtain detailed information of the device. Since the RFID electronic tag cannot be copied, you can check the manhole cover information in time and quickly understand the loss of the manhole cover.

Strengthen manhole cover monitoring: The manhole cover management system that introduces wireless radio frequency technology further strengthens the monitoring of manhole covers, ensures the safety of assets, and ensures the integrity, accuracy and reliability of asset data.
