WHITEPAPER

RAIN RFID is used globally in different industry verticals to identify, locate, and authenticate items and things. The aviation industry has adopted RAIN RFID for the identification and tracking of parts, supplies, and baggage based on Resolution 753 by the International Air Transport Association (IATA). RAIN RFID for identifying baggage has its challenges as baggages may contain multiple tags and this can lead to missed reads and misrouting of bags. This white paper from RAIN RFID Alliance focuses on the use of RAIN RFID for baggage tracking and the importance of tag data encoding schemes to enable universal visibility during the process of baggage tracking.
