ABSTRAK Proses pengangkutan dan pencampuran batubara di PT Adaro Indonesia terbilang cukup unik, menggunakan sistem ‘blending berjalan”, proses pencampuran dilakukan dengan mengatur waktu kedatangan alat pengangkut batubara di terminal fasiltas pemrosesan batubara dan pengisian tongkang agar tiba sesuai dengan waktu yang direncanakan. Untuk menunjang proses optimasi agar menghasilkan kualitas pencampuran yang on spec dan on time dibutuhkan sistem monitoring material, method dan machine yang mumpuni. Teknologi Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) dipilih karena mampu menghasilkan komunikasi data yang cepat. Komponen utama RFID adalah alat pembaca (reader) dan alat penanda (tagger). Alat pembaca dirakit secara elektronik dan beroperasi dengan memanfaatkan sumber energi panas matahari konversi dari solar cell dan ditempatkan di setiap titik strategis di jalur pengangkutan. Alat tagger ditempatkan pada semua alat pengangkut batubara (trailer). Sistem software dan database dibuat secara lokal dan terintegrasi ke pusat database yang terhubung melalui topologi jaringan. Semua transaksi kegiatan pengangkutan mulai dari alat angkut dalam  posisi kosong, pengisian, penimbangan sampai penumpahan atau penumpukan diproses secara online dan real time. Sistem ini juga diintegrasikan dengan aplikasi tracking monitoring yang dibuat dan dikembangkan untuk pemantauan data secara real time oleh semua pihak yang terlibat dalam rantai pasok operasional pengangkutan dan pencampuran batubara.Implementasi integrasi teknologi yang disusun berdasarkan analisa kebutuhan bisnis proses ini memberikan dampak langsung dan tidak langsung. Secara biaya pengadaan dan perawatan, tools ini lebih murah dari produk pasaran yang ditawarkan. Dari segi kualitas menghasilkan peningkatan presisi pencampuran. Sisi operasional juga memberikan penghematan dari proses kerja yang efisien dengan peningkatan produktivitas alat angkut. Tindakan perbaikan yang berkelanjutan dan tepat sasaran dari aktivitas pengangkutan dan pencampuran juga dapat dilakukan karena data evaluasi yang dihasilkan dari integrasi teknologi ini valid dan dapat diandalkan. Kata Kunci : RFID, Coal Hauling, Coal Blending, Hauling Tracking System  ABSTRACT Coal hauling and mixing in PT Adaro Indonesia is fairly unique, using an “on the way mixing” system, the mixing process is operated by setting the arrival time of the coal truck at coal processing and barge loading terminal facility so that truck arrived according to planned time. In order to support the optimization process to produce optimum quality mixing that is on spec and on time, require capable monitoring system of material, method and machine. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology was chosen because it is able to produce fast data communications. The main components of RFID are reader and tagger. The reader is electronically assembled and operated by using thermal energy conversion from solar cell which placed at each strategic point along hauling road. The tagger is placed on every coal truck (trailer). The software and database system is created locally and integrated into central database that connected through network topology. All transaction from hauling activity starting from the trucks at empty position, loading, passing, weighing until dumping are processed online and real time. This system also integrated with tracking monitoring application that is established and developed for real time monitoring by all parties involved in coal supply chain. The implementation of this technology integration that based on business needs analysis has direct and indirect impact. In terms of investment and maintenance costs, these tools are cheaper than commonly product offered in industrial market. From quality aspect results, it gives enhancement of mixing precision. The operational side also provides saving from efficient working process by increasing truck productivity. Continuous and accurate corrective action from coal hauling and blending operation can also be done because data evaluation that generated from this integrated technology are valid and reliable. Keyword: RFID, Coal Hauling, Coal Blending, Hauling Tracking System

This paper deals with securing radioactive source by continuously monitoring system, which is made of RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) reader and tags respectively. The RFID tags that are attached to the transport packages can send information at preset interval, to reader mounted in the cargo bay of the transport vehicle. When an alarm state is encountered by any of the sensors in the tag, the location information of the item using GPS is promptly sent to the monitoring center via the GPRS network. The experiments show that the real-time tracking system is an important prerequisite for ensuring safety of radioactive source in transport.

Using energy-harvesting technology can make the work scope of passive radio frequency identification tag to achieve the maximum .The study put forward to collecting light from the solar cell share tag antenna area, that provides the power source except from the reader receive to electromagnetic power ,which to activate the label circuit. In order to make solar cell to the influence of the tag antenna to minimum ,so optimize it with electromagnetic simulation on its position .The collected dc power could convert into the radio frequency with the efficient E-class oscillator , as well as it could flow into the radio frequency identification tag terminal with the aid of the proper designed coupled circuit .The oscillation frequency is selected on the principle of not affecting the operation of label back scattering .The presented oscillator is showed in the simulations .The E-class oscillator is used together with other forms of collection technology ,such as thermoelectric collect machine.

Context.— Preanalytic errors, including specimen labeling errors and specimen loss, occur frequently during specimen collection, transit, and accessioning. Radio-frequency identification tags can decrease specimen identification and tracking errors through continuous and automated tracking of specimens. Objective.— To implement a specimen tracking infrastructure to reduce preanalytic errors (specimen mislabeling or loss) between specimen collection and laboratory accessioning. Specific goals were to decrease preanalytic errors by at least 70% and to simultaneously decrease employee effort dedicated to resolving preanalytic errors or investigating lost specimens. Design.— A radio-frequency identification specimen-tracking system was developed. Major features included integral radio-frequency identification labels (radio-frequency identification tags and traditional bar codes in a single printed label) printed by point-of-care printers in collection suites; dispersed radio-frequency identification readers at major transit points; and systems integration of the electronic health record, laboratory information system, and radio-frequency identification tracking system to allow for computerized physician order entry driven label generation, specimen transit time tracking, interval-based alarms, and automated accessioning. Results.— In the 6-month postimplementation period, 6 mislabeling events occurred in collection areas using the radio-frequency identification system, compared with 24 events in the 6-month preimplementation period (75% decrease; P = .001). In addition, the system led to the timely recovery of 3 lost specimens. Labeling expenses were decreased substantially in the transition from high-frequency to ultrahigh frequency radio-frequency identification tags. Conclusions.— Radio-frequency identification specimen tracking prevented several potential specimen-loss events, decreased specimen recovery time, and decreased specimen labeling errors. Increases in labeling/tracking expenses for the system were more than offset by time savings and loss avoidance through error mitigation.
