Abstract
A method of sensing a property of each of a plurality of samples is disclosed. The method includes disposing a sensor chip in each sample, the sensor chip being adapted to sense the property of a respective sample and comprising sensing electronics, a wireless communication device and an identifier. Each sensor chip is then registered and sensed data is received from each of the registered sensor chips concurrently via the respective wireless communication device.
Claims14
A method of identifying a sample, the method comprising:
- receiving an identification data from a container, the container including an RFID tag and being configured to store the sample, the RFID tag being configured to store the identification data and transmit the identification data;
- determining whether the identification data is new;
- and
- registering the identification data if the identification data is new.
A base station comprising:
- a transceiver circuit which is configured to receive an identification data emitted from a container, the container having an RFID tag and being configured to store a sample, the RFID tag being configured to store the identification data and transmit the identification data;
- a data processing section which is configured to determine whether the identification data is new;
- and
- a memory which is configured to register the identification data if the identification data is new.
An RFID tag which is configured to be attached on a container, the container holding a sample, the RFID tag comprising:
- an RFID circuitry being configured to extract a power by receiving a radio frequency signal;
- and
- a memory being configured to store an identification data of the container.
