Abstract: This paper presents a method of designing a logistics positioning terminal whih is often used in logistics systems. This method is based on STC single-chip microcontrollers and the use of GPS technology, GPRS/GSM technology and RF technology. A brief introduction about how the terminal works is also given, and the hardware composition and software design of the terminal are discussed in detail. During the logistics transport process, the terminal is fixed in the surface of the transport material, it can send real-time geographic information of the goods transported to the logistics center, it also can monitor the temperature and humidity of the materials transported, and ensure the escorts works in a distance from the goods transported, which can transport the goods safely. This can achieve information during the process of modern logistics, and has the advantages such as low cost, application flexibility, scalability and so on.
