one or more assets loaded into and/or removed from a vehicle, wherein each asset is coupled to a wireless tag, and wherein each wireless tag is configured to wirelessly transmit beacon signals at predetermined intervals; and
a gateway disposed within the vehicle, wherein the gateway is configured to receive power from a vehicle power source when the vehicle is operating, and wherein the gateway is configured to receive power from an internal power source when the vehicle is not operating, and wherein the gateway is configured to:
scan at a high duty cycle when the gateway is receiving power from the vehicle power source, and to scan at a low duty cycle when the gateway is receiving power from the internal power source;
scan an area of the vehicle at a duty cycle to identify beacon signals transmitted by the wireless tags; and
receive the beacon signals from the wireless tags.
