RFID System Components
RFID Tag
 Transponder
 Located on the object
RFID Reader
 Transceiver
 Can read and write data to Tag
Data Processing Subsystem (Host System)

Block Diagram of RFID system
RFID Reader
 It is a device that is used to interrogate a Tag.
Basic components are:
1. A scanning Antenna
2. A transceiver with a decoder to interpret

data.
3. helps in personalize & read data.

Transponder
• Consists of a silicon-based microchip that stores data and antenna.
Tags can be classified in three different ways :
1. Active
2. Passive
3. Semi-active (semi-passive)
4. Active transponder has on-tag batteries and is also known as

beacons (broadcast their own signal).
5. Passive transponders obtain all power from the RF interrogation signal
of the reader.
6. Active and passive only communicate when interrogated by
a transceiver.
Tags can also be classified on the basis of:
• Read-only (RO)
• Write once, read many (WORM)
• Read-write (RW)
Data Processing Subsystem
• Backend System
• Connected via a high-speed network
• Computers used for business planning
(ERP)
• Database storage
• Can be as simple as a reader attached to a
cash register
How does RFID work?
Working principle of RFID
 A radio device called a tag is attached to the
object that needs to be identified.
 When this tagged object is presented in front of a
suitable RFID reader, the tag transmits this data to
the reader (via the reader antenna).
 The reader then reads the data and has the
capability to forward it over suitable
communication channels.
 This application can then use this unique data
to identify the object presented to the reader.
 It can then perform a variety of actions

Library Management System
Application on Smartphones
Mobile phones will be integrated with RFID reader
powered by mobile phone' battery.
RFID tags can be read through these

mobile phones and information can be sent
to the mobile phone service provider for
many types of transactions.
This functionality can provide many services like

banking, billing, purchasing, electronic payment etc.
Barcode vs RFID…..
Barcodes can only be scanned one at a time, unlike RFID which
multiple tags can be scanned at once using a single scanner.
Barcodes require the scanner to have a direct line-of-sight with the
code where are RFID is a near-field technology, which allows the
scanner to read the tags within a range and without a direct line-of-
sight.
Barcodes are typically printed on adhesive labels or on paper
resulting in the barcode being prone to wear and damage which can
impact the readability. However, RFID tags are usually embedded
within plastic labels or within the object its self, resulting in a more
robust product which can withstand more damage than barcodes.
Barcodes are limited by the type and volume of data that can be
stored, while RFID allows for up to 2,000 bytes of data to be stored
within a single tag.

Initiatives in India on RFID
Wipro Technologies: Member of the Electronic Product
Code (EPC). Setting up a lab to study RFID. Working on pilot
projects
Infosys Technologies: RFID consulting on logistics player in
the RFID space.
OTCS: Tied up with Hyderabad University to produce RFID
tagged mark sheets & degrees to deter use of fake degree.
Patni Computer Systems Lab: System. Implemented
Animal Tracking
Intellicon: Pilot project for BEL Bangalore, Tags installed on
employee buses. Buses inside the BEL campus were tracked
with the aim of gauging employee punctuality
Conclusion
RFID is a Supporting Technology not a Competing technology………..
⚫ Slowly becoming an industry standard

⚫ Speeds up the supply chain process
⚫ Easier to manage inventory
⚫ Continually evolving
It is easy to envision that, the RFID tags contents will

increase in power, prices are expected to decline and
tag will dramatically improve its efficiency, security
and accuracy.
Thank You
