Method for Planning the Travel Route of A Transport Vehicle, Transport Vehicle

A method for planning the travel route of a transport vehicle by which a plurality of transported items are transported, the method comprising:

• providing an RFID tag for each transported item, wherein RFID antennas on the transport vehicle determine the load of the transport vehicle in that the individual RFID tags of the transported items are scanned inside the transport vehicle;
• scanning the RFID tags belonging to the transported items before the transport vehicle is loaded, via a reading process on an RFID packing bench;
• planning the route at least on a basis of a destination addresses for the transported items;
• and
• changing the route planning dynamically on the basis of current traffic conditions and on the basis of items that have been newly loaded into the transport vehicle.

A system for transporting items, comprising:

• a transport vehicle that receives a plurality of transported items, each of the plurality of transported items having an RFID tag, the transport vehicle comprising a plurality of antennas disposed therein to determine a load of the transport vehicle in that the individual RFID tags of the transported items are scanned inside the transport vehicle, the plurality of antennas being configured in such a way that RFID tags can be scanned anywhere in the interior;
• an RFID packing bench that employs a reading process to scan the RFID tags belonging to the transported items before the transport vehicle is loaded;
• wherein a route of the transport vehicle is planned at least on a basis of a destination addresses for the transported items;
• and
• wherein the route planning dynamically changes on the basis of current traffic conditions and on the basis of items that have been newly loaded into the transport vehicle.
