    What is RFID?
    RFID = Radio Frequency IDentification.
    An ADC (Automated Data Collection) technology
    that:
    uses radio-frequency waves to transfer data between
    a reader and a movable item to identify, categorize,
    track..
    Is fast and does not require physical sight or contact
    between reader/scanner and the tagged item.
    Performs the operation using low cost components.
    Attempts to provide unique identification and backend
    integration that allows for wide range of applications.

    Other ADC technologies: Bar codes, OCR.

    RFID tags: Smart labels


    A paper label
    with RFID inside

    an antenna,
    printed, etched
    or stamped ...
    and a chip
    attached to it

    on a substrate
    e.g. a plastic
    foil ...

    RFID tags
    Tags can be attached to almost anything:
    Items, cases or pallets of products, high value goods
    vehicles, assets, livestock or personnel

    Passive Tags

    Do not require power Draws from Interrogator Field


    Lower storage capacities (few bits to 1 KB)
    Shorter read ranges (4 inches to 15 feet)
    Usually Write-Once-Read-Many/Read-Only tags
    Cost around 25 cents to few dollars

    Active Tags

    Battery powered
    Higher storage capacities (512 KB)
    Longer read range (300 feet)
    Typically can be re-written by RF Interrogators
    Cost around 50 to 250 dollars

    RFID tag memory


    Read-only tags
    Tag ID is assigned at the factory during manufacturing
    Can never be changed
    No additional data can be assigned to the tag

    Write once, read many (WORM) tags


    Data written once, e.g., during packing or manufacturing
    Tag is locked once data is written
    Similar to a compact disc or DVD

    Read/Write
    Tag data can be changed over time
    Part or all of the data section can be locked

    11

    RFID readers
    Reader functions:

    Remotely power tags


    Establish a bidirectional data link
    Inventory tags, filter results
    Communicate with networked server(s)
    Can read 100-300 tags per second

    Readers (interrogators) can be at a fixed point such as


    Entrance/exit
    Point of sale

    Readers can also be mobile/hand-held

    Smart groceries

    Add an RFID tag to all


    items in the grocery.
    As the cart leaves the
    store, it passes through
    an RFID transceiver.

    The cart is rung up in


    seconds.

    RFID advantages over bar-codes


    No line of sight required for reading
    Multiple items can be read with a single scan
    Each tag can carry a lot of data (read/write)
    Individual items identified and not just the category
    Passive tags have a virtually unlimited lifetime
    Active tags can be read from great distances
    Can be combined with barcode technology

    Points to note about RFID


    RFID benefits are due to automation and optimization.
    RFID is not a plug & play technology.
    One frequency fits all is a myth.
    Technology is evolving but physics has limitations.
    RFID does not solve data inconsistency within and
    across enterprises.
    Management of RFID infrastructure and data has been
    underestimated.
    24

    Weaknesses

    Lack of industry and application


    standards
    High cost per unit and high RFID
    system integration costs
    Weak market understanding of
    the benefits of RFID technology

    Advanced technology
    Easy to use
    High memory capacity
    Small size

    Opportunities

    Threats

    Could replace the bar code


    End-user demand for RFID
    systems is increasing
    Huge market potential in many
    businesses

    Ethical threats concerning
