25、es. The results of these tests can be used to determine the suitability of RTLS equipment for applications. 4.1.1 Location accuracy The primary function of RTLS equipment is to locate tags within the area covered by the readers. Location accuracy determines the primary performance criteria of an RTL

26、S. Location accuracy can be characterized by comparing the systems calculated location for a given set of tags to the actual location of the tags. The system must be able to locate tags to within the applications allowable error. 4.1.2 Tag capacity A RTLS must typically locate a large number of tags

27、. The number of tag blinks per second that can be processed and located through the readers can be used to determine a systems tag capacity. The system must be able to provide location information for an applications peak tag blink density. 4.1.3 Location latency The latency between when the tag bli

28、nk is transmitted and when the RTLS equipment can provide accurate location information determines the suitability of the equipment for the application. 4.1.4 Tag orientation The ability of an RTLS to provide real time location information should be independent of the orientation of the tag. The loc

29、ation reported by the RTLS should not change as the tag is rotated in any orientation relative to the readers. BS ISO/IEC 24770:2012ISO/IEC 24770:2012(E) ISO/IEC 2012 All rights reserved 34.1.5 System range and packet error rates The range of the tag-reader 2,4 GHz DSSS link determines the reader de

30、nsity requirements and also effects system capacity. The packet error rate will determine how often the equipment can successfully provide accurate location information for the tag. The range, packet error rate, and orientation requirements of the optional air interfaces between the tags and exciter

31、s, and between the tags and programmers, determine the usability of the system in meeting the applications requirements. 4.2 Default conditions applicable to the test methods These conditions apply to all tests. 4.2.1 Test environment Testing shall take place in an environment typical to that of the

32、 desired application. Testing can be performed indoors or outdoors with temperature and humidity profiles similar to that expected in the desired application. The RF noise floor at the test location should also represent typical conditions expected within the desired application. 4.2.2 Default toler

33、ance Unless otherwise specified, a default tolerance of 5 % shall be applied to the quantity values given to specify the characteristics of the test equipment and the test method procedures. 4.2.3 System Logging The RTLS should provide sufficient data logging to allow determination of the number of

34、packets received and sent, but this is not absolutely required. 5 Performance tests for ISO/IEC 24730-2 5.1 System locate performance This subclause includes tests for location performance. 5.1.1 Test objective The objective of this test is evaluate the system locate performance characteristics of t

35、he ISO/IEC 24730-2 equipment. 5.1.2 Test set up The readers shall be connected to omni-directional antennas. It is preferred that the RTLS locate performance characteristics be evaluated with the system installed as it would for the desired application. If that is not possible, then the equipment sh

36、all be configured as shown in Figure 1, with four readers at the corners of a square measuring 300 m across the diagonal (outdoor applications) or 200 m across the diagonal (indoor applications). In addition to standalone tags, several tags mounted on the applications locatable assets (or items of c

37、omparable size and composition) shall be used to evaluate locate performance.

38、ransmit 72-bit DSSS blinks as defined in ISO/IEC 24730-2:2006, 6.3.2.2. Unless otherwise indicated, the tags shall be configured at a blink interval such that the number of tags in the test divided by the blink interval used during test is equal to or greater than the planned number of assets tagged

39、 in the application (within range of a given set of readers) divided by the planned blink interval of application tags. Each blink shall be configured with at least two sub-blinks. The tag shall be configured to transmit at the extremes of class 1 power: 0 dBm and +10 dBm EIRP. The tag shall be atta

40、ched to assets such as to reproduce the conditions of the desired application. Additional procedures specific to individual test are outlines in the test measurement and requirements. 5.1.4 Test measurements and requirements 5.1.4.1 Location accuracy Tags, or sets of tags shall be distributed throug

41、hout the area of coverage at about a 20 m spacing as shown in Figure 2. The actual location of all tags shall be recorded. The test shall be run long enough to capture a minimum of 250 tag blinks from each tag. This will typically be several hours minimum. The total number of tag locates calculated

42、during the test shall be divided by expected number of blinks from all the tags included in the test for the duration of the test using the formula: (N tags) * (test duration)/(tag blink interval). Each location calculation shall be compared to appropriate tags actual location to produce the locatio

43、n error. The location accuracy shall be represented as a percentage of all locations calculated by the system in which the errors fall within the specified maximum error divided by the total number of locations calculated. The radius of acceptable error shall be determined by the requirements of the

44、 application.

45、umber of tag blinks. Tags, or groups of tags, shall be moved from one known location to another known location throughout the test. The exact time of each actual move shall be logged, as well as the exact time of reported location change. Record the difference between the time of reception and the t

46、ime of the location report which location is within the maximum error allowed by the application. 5.1.4.3 Tag capacity The tags shall be configured at a blink interval such that the total number of blinks per second during the test is at least 2,5 times the expected blinks per second in the applicat

47、ion. This ensures that the system will continue to perform at times when tag blinks cluster in time. The location accuracy and locate latency shall be compared to the results from test results at the expected number of blinks per second to determine performance degradation. 5.1.4.4 Tag orientation T

48、his test is required only for applications where the tag orientation when attached to the asset is not predicable. For the duration of the test, compare the errors in the calculated location as the tag is rotated through all three axes. Changes in location accuracy as a result of orientation should

49、be noted in the test report quantitatively.

The report shall also contain the maximum tag blinks per second the system can handle and still meet the required location accuracy and locate latency. The report shall also include the average laten
