A METHOD OF LOCALIZING STORAGE DEVICES, A MONITORING SYSTEM FOR LOCALIZING STORAGE DEVICES FOR GOODS, AND USE OF THE MONITORING EQUIPMENT

摘要

The present invention relates to a kind of methods and a kind of monitoring system, it is especially useful in monitoring container (4). Each container has GPS type (5) of the radio connection to position location satellite, SatCom types (6) and near-field communication equipment, and wherein data can be sent to data processing unit. Therefore, according to the present invention, several possible radio connections can provide between single near-field communication equipment, then its first check can establish the connection with position location satellite, if can not, it tries establish the radio connection with telecommunication satellite. If cannot do so is not to establish radio connection to another neighbouring field communication equipment. Container can monitor and track accordingly generally if their dissolute radio connections for some reason. If container, which is placed on, communicates especially difficult place, one embodiment of the invention includes the near-field communication equipment being not placed on any container, this can be with container and and satellite communication.
