Abstract (en)
Radio frequency identification tags are placed on mail pieces to uniquely identify registered mail pieces. The unique identifier is stored in a first computer and then communicated to a second computer. The radio frequency identification tag is then scanned at selected locations as the mail piece travels through the delivery process. Then the information scanned at the selected locations including the location of the scanner is communicated to the second computer as the mail piece travels through the delivery process. <IMAGE>
