Abstract
- This paper shows a method to get a patient tracking RFId solution, basing on a multilayer planning architecture. This approach is thought to guarantee that the found technical solution is as much as possible coherent to the very initial idea. Project aims, functional requirements and technical constraints are defined in order to arrive to an active RFId solution to track and identify patients inside a hospital. The article also deals with economical issues and physical design aspects. In this work it's also defined a three phases process for patient tracking, that could serve as a guideline for different technical solutions to the same problem.
