The Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) is moving to introduce Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) baggage tracking technology across Nigerian airports as part of efforts to curb cases of missing, delayed and misrouted luggages. The regulatory agency said it is reviewing existing civil aviation regulations to make RFID baggage tracking mandatory for airlines operating within Nigerian airspace. The technology we are looking to use now is RFID to replace the current technology being used.” Unlike conventional barcodes, which require a scanner to maintain direct line-of-sight with a printed baggage tag, RFID technology uses tags embedded with microchips and antennas to transmit information through radio waves. He said the technology would significantly reduce the possibility of a passenger’s luggage being placed on the wrong flight.
