A management device comprising:
- a position identification unit that identifies a position of an object based on identification information,
- wherein the identification information indicates the object, is stored by the object, and is acquired from a plurality of antennas, a plurality of terminals, or both the plurality of antennas and the plurality of terminals,
- wherein a distance between respective antennas of the plurality of antennas, a distance between respective terminals of the plurality of terminals, or a distance between respective antennas of the plurality of antennas and respective terminals of the plurality of terminals is a distance at which no mutual electromagnetic interference occurs.
A management method comprising:
- identifying a position of an object based on identification information,
- wherein the identification information indicates the object, is stored by the object, and is acquired from a plurality of antennas, a plurality of terminals, or both the plurality of antennas and the plurality of terminals,
- wherein a distance between respective antennas of the plurality of antennas, a distance between respective terminals of the plurality of terminals, or a distance between respective antennas of the plurality of antennas and respective terminals of the plurality of terminals is a distance at which no mutual electromagnetic interference occurs.
