Abstract

A method for dynamic pairing between asset tracking devices, such as a chassis module and a chassis sensor module mounted on a chassis and a container module mounted on a container. The method includes detecting presence of the container using the chassis sensor module and in response, broadcasting a short-range polling signal; establishing a wireless connection with the container module in response to the short-range polling signal; obtaining GNSS data; determining an estimated distance between the chassis module and the container module; and transmitting the GNSS data and the estimated distance to a remote server.
