Invention Description/ Abstract:

Smart Baggage MY adopts a lightweight and modular mobile architecture with good scalability and stability. Complying with IATA Resolution 753, the system realizes full-lifecycle baggage tracking covering acceptance, loading, transfer and arrival. It supports common airport scanning technologies and reserves RFID interfaces to ensure accurate and efficient baggage data traceability.
Its key technical feature is anautomatic disruption detection and emergency switching module designed for airport power faults and system breakdowns. The module instantly activates emergency updates to inform users of disruption causes, affected ranges and recovery status. Furthermore, embedded intelligent algorithms dynamically predict baggage delays and collection time, while enabling digital one-click reporting and closed-loop management of mishandled baggage.
The system implements multi-role hierarchical access control to support collaborative operation among passengers, airline staff, ground handlers and airport management. The prototype is validated with simulated data and retains standard interfaces for future integration with airport BHS/BRS systems. It also supports modern XML baggage messaging, effectively enhancing the digitalization, reliability and efficiency of airport baggage management.

Invention Technical Description

This invention is **Smart Baggage MY**, a mobile-based real-time baggage tracking and management system tailored for Malaysian airports. It solves key flaws of traditional baggage services, such as poor real-time visibility, delayed disruption updates, and offline-only fault reporting, which were exposed during the 2026 KLIA baggage system failure.

Fully compliant with IATA Resolution 753, the system enables full-cycle baggage tracking covering check-in, loading, transit, and arrival. Its core innovation is a **custom disruption management mode** that releases real-time emergency updates during system faults, eliminating passenger information gaps.

Built with a scalable modular architecture, the platform integrates intelligent delay alerts, digital mishandling reporting and multi-stakeholder collaboration. It effectively improves airport baggage operational efficiency, service transparency and travel experience, supporting the digital upgrading of local aviation baggage management.
