    摘要: A system and method for animal monitoring is disclosed. The system comprises a bolus communicatively coupled to a plurality of wireless transponder and a wireless network with a base station in communication with the plurality of wireless transponder. The bolus comprises of a plurality of sensor to measure animal characteristic at a pre-configured sampling/polling rate, a processing unit, a memory unit, a clock unit, a transceiver unit and a plurality of antenna unit. The method comprises at least one of the plurality of sensor detecting/identifying a variation in animal characteristic. The processing unit using the memory unit and the real time clock unit is configured to change the corresponding pre-configured sampling/polling rate of the at least one of the plurality of sensor automatically depending on rate of variation in the animal characteristic. The transceiver unit is configured to communicate the automatic changes in pre-configured sampling/polling rate to the plurality of wireless transponder.

    摘要: System for determining a respective walked distance of animals in a barn during a predetermined time period. The system includes a Real-Time Location System, a database storing historical trajectories of the animals and a processing controller. The processing controller is configured to determine the walked distance of the animal by establishing a walked trajectory based on obtained data entities, and store the trajectory in the database associated with the animal; or detecting a gap of missing or incomplete data entities among the obtained data entities; and establish the trajectory by inserting replacement distance data in the gap, based on historical trajectories extracted from the database and store the established trajectory in the database.
