Asset management on RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) is the process of tracking and managing physical assets using RFID technology. RFID tags are attached to assets, and RFID readers and antennas are used to communicate with the tags and collect data about the assets.
RFID tags are attached to assets, and each tag contains a unique identifier. RFID readers and antennas are placed at strategic locations, such as entry and exit points, to detect the tags as they move through the facility. The tag responds with its unique identity once the reader delivers a signal to it. The reader then sends this data to a central database, where it is used to track the location and status of the asset.

3. What is RFID Technology?
RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) is the technology that works
on radio frequency and it is used for the auto-identification for the
different project.
A microchip is a label used to transmit data when the label is exposed
to radio waves.

5. RFID Based on Asset Management
RFID asset management systems allow you to keep track of
individual items through the use of RFID tags attached to
them.
The tags are read by fixed reader installed on doorways and other key
points or by staff using mobile phones or tablets.
Tracking multiple assets at any one time
Eliminating human intervention
Collecting data in real-time
Improving asset visibility
Locating lost or misplaced asset
Maximising accuracy of inventory

6. How does RFID Asset Tracking Work?
Data is stored on an RFID tag, with a unique Electronic Product
Code (EPC), and is attached to an asset.
An antenna identifies the signal of a nearby RFID tag.
An RFID reader is connected wirelessly to the RFID antenna and
receives the data that is stored on the RFID tag.
The RFID reader then transmits the data to an asset tracking
database where it is stored, evaluated, and actioned.

8. Header Tag: Identifies the EPC (Electronic Product code)
Version number –allows for different lengths.
EPC Manager: The manufacturer of the product the EPC is
attached to: ex. Coca Cola.
Object Class: Exact type of product, most often SKU (Stock
Keeping Unit): ex. Diet Coke US Version.
Serial Number: Unique to the item tells exactly which Diet
Coke.

9. What are the different types RFID Tags for Asset Tracking?
Three different kinds of RFID Tags are commercially available.
Passive Tags
ActiveTags
Semi-passive Tags
encstore.com
10. Passive Tags
The Passive Tags do not have any power supply.
They used to get their power from the incoming radio waves from
the readers.
Small and lightweight
Has a longer life expectancy than Active RFID tags.
encstore.com
11. Active Tags
Battery-powered tags that continuously transmit a signal.
Commonly used in processes to track assets in real-time such as
vehicle tracking and tolling.
Depending on the tag’s frequency, Active RFID tags have a signal
range of up to 150 meters.
Are generally more expensive than Passive RFID tags.

12. Semi-passsive Tags
They have a power supply for internal circuitries.
It sending the response it relies on the radio waves received from
the reader.
Used within close distance of an RFID reader.
Commonly used for environment and condition monitoring such as
temperature-controlled transit.

13. What are the benefits of Asset Tracking using
RFID?
Reduce Costs and Labour Time through Automation.
Provide Good Return on Investment
Increase Asset Visibility
Reduce Loss and Theft of Asset

14. What are the different levels of frequency in
RFID?
The RFID system is mainly operated in three frequency bands.
LF: Low- Frquency band
HF: High-Frequency band
UHF : Ultra High Frequency band
Low Frequency band
Have a frequency range between
125-134 kHz
Has a long-wavelength that allows signals to better penetrate solid
materials and high water content
Has a signal range that is typically limited to up to 10cm
encstore.com
15. High Frequency band
Operates at a frequency of 13.65 MHz
Good at penetrating metal objects and medium-to-high water
content
The signal range is short and is typically limited to 1 meter
Commonly used for tracking small assets and inventory
Ultra High Frequency band
Operates at a frequency 860-960 MHz
Offers a greater read-range of up to 150 meters
Provides faster data transfer speeds than Low and High-frequency
RFID tags
Shorter wavelengths make it unlikely to pass signals through metal
or water
