System and method for real time location tracking and communications
First Claim
1. A system for location tracking of objects at a site, comprising:
- a central server;
a plurality of remote locator tags disposed on said objects;
a plurality of remote repeater devices configured at said site capable of transmitting data signals to locate said locator tags, receiving location data signals from said locator tags, and transmitting said location data signals to said central server;
a plurality of databases connected to said central server, said databases having location information; and
a processing unit with a tracking software operably connected to said central server said processing unit with said tracking software capable of compiling and assembling said location data signals and said location information for tracking said objects at said site, thereby establishing a real time location tracking and communication with said objects.

Abstract
Disclosed is a system and method for tracking location of objects (personnel) at a site. The system comprises: a central server, plurality of remote locator tags disposed on the objects, plurality of remote repeater devices capable of transmitting data signals to locate the locator tags, receiving location data signals from the locator tags, and transmitting the location data signals to the central server. A plurality of databases having location information are connected to the central server and a processing unit with a tracking software operably connected to the central server, compiles and assembles the location data signals and location information for tracking the objects at the site, thereby establishes a real time location tracking and communication with the objects. The system also enables setting up ad-hoc networks fully functioning on power and signals independent of the primary systems of the site and enhances decision making in real time environment.
