August 2007D1312r01 WhereTrack Users Guide 28September07.doc Page 4 Introduction System overview The WhereNet Real Time Locating System (RTLS) is designed to permit users to determine the position of tagged assets in both indoor and outdoor facilities such as factories and freight yards. The system locates tagged assets by a process involving redundant triangulation. Each tag autonomously emits a 2.4 GHz direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) radio signal at predetermined blink rate. Each tag’s blink rate is randomized around its predetermined value to minimize the number of collisions between transmissions made by different tags. The signal emitted by the tag is received by a minimum of four Location Antennas. A typical transmission contains a preamble which is used to synchronize the receiver, the tag’s serial number which identifies the tag, a status word which monitors various tag functions, data stored in the tag’s memory and finally a CRC used to assure that the tag’s message is correct as received. A WhereTrack or WNC unit may be utilized as part of the RTLS to locate yard vehicles, back haul GPS and telemetry information from the CPE and also offers WiFi communication capability.

It is a medium sized device that can be attached to a variety of CPE such as UTRs, RTGs, FELs, STs and SGs. A PACECO PTIU is generally, but not always, also installed on the CPE. If the CPE has a PTIU, the WNC connects to the PTIU via EtherNet and forwards the PTIU telemetry information to the RTLS through tag transmissions and provides WiFi back haul connectivity. Some CPEs, such as Quay Cranes, may not require a PTIU, but may still require a WNC unit. In this case, the WNC provides the function of periodic GPS and RTLS location reporting. The PTIU is a custom Paceco product that supports a number of digital and analog ports. The PTIU is installed on a variety of CHE. It’s primary function is to detect the state of sensors, to determine container transition events, and to report these to the WhereNet MTS SW stack. The PTIU generally connects to sensor signals already available on the CHE as well as a variety of new sensors installed on the CHE. In some cases, the PTIU also connects to the CHE PLC in order to obtain the sensor data it requires. The WNC contains the functionality of 4 internal STHO WhereTags that can be set to "blink" an RF transmission at pre- programmed rates ranging from 0.5 seconds to one hour between blinks. The WhereNet RTLS infrastructure receives these blinks and use sophisticated Differential Time of Arrival, (DTOA), algorithms to determine the location of the tag. Accuracy of this determined location can be as low as 2 meters and is nominally within 3 meters in most installations. The tag blink data field can also include the GPS locate information as well as other telemetry information that is connec…
