FIELD: physics, signalling.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to methods and systems for detecting product distribution from a storage device. The method of detecting product distribution from a storage device is realised by providing a first product with a first wireless label inside the coverage area of an antenna. Also, by establishing a wireless connection between the first wireless label and the antenna, by establishing a first wireless link between the first wireless label of the first product and a second wireless label of a second product and a second wireless link between the second wireless label and the antenna. Further, the wireless connection is monitored and, in response to the monitoring, it is determined when wireless communication ceased and when the first product was distributed from the storage device.
EFFECT: high accuracy and efficiency of monitoring product distribution and high reliability and accuracy of stock-taking.
