- the metadata correspond for example to the data known on the network side, such as the identification of the base stations receiving the signals, the frequencies of the signals received, the times of reception at the various stations, the powers of the signals received, etc.
- the metadata can in particular make it possible to estimate the position of the connected packaging 100 within an environment.
- the data correspond for example to the data transported in the payload, commonly called by the English term "payload", but also to the data available in the network or in the services, and which can enrich the payload.
- the activation message that follows the opening or closing of the connected packaging 100 can carry the physical identifier of the object.
- the tracking method 400 can also include a step 450 of estimating a position of the connected packaging 100 based on the timestamp of the signals transmitted by the electronic device 160 and received by the terminals 210 of the telecommunications, the position of the terminals 210, or even the power of the signals received.
- the tracking method 400 can also include a step 460 of tracing the connected packaging 100 in an environment, such as a sorting center for handling in the context of transport or an order, or a sorting center for recycling the connected packaging 100, or more generally within a coverage area of a telecommunications network of the LPWAN type.
- the electronic device 160 of the connected packaging 100 can advantageously be easily removed from the connected packaging 100 in order to dissociate the packaging itself which is here made of cardboard and the part electronics that are recycled through a separate channel.
- the electronic device 160 can thus be on a removable part 136, 191 of the connected packaging.
- the return can be a return of the connected packaging 100 to the sender, for example for a customer return, or a shipment of the connected packaging 100 to another recipient.
- a button 161 of the electronic device 160 can be activated during a step 480 to mark the start of the new phase of use.
- the detachable part 191 or the tab 136 can also be reused on a second packaging 300 during a step 490.
