This document discusses RFID technology and its applications. It begins with an introduction to RFID, describing its components and different tag types. Applications that were discussed include logistics, inventory control, libraries, and electronic toll collection. The document also summarizes the results of an online survey on opinions of RFID. It concludes that RFID provides benefits like contactless reading and updating data, though costs remain higher than barcodes and standards are still being developed.

3. RFID
RFID = Radio Frequency Identification
Electronic labeling and wireless identification of objects
using radio frequency
Tag carries with its information
 a serial number
 Model number
 Color or any other imaginable data
When these tags pass through a field generated by a
compatible reader, they transmit this information back to
the reader, thereby identifying the object

4. RFID COMPONENTS
A basic RFID system consists of these components:
 A programmable RFID tag/inlay for storing item data;
 Consisting of an RFID chip for data storage
 an antenna to facilitate communication with the RFID chip
A reader/antenna system to interrogate the RFID inlay
Application software and a host computer system

5. RFID TAG
The RFID tag consists of an integrated circuit (IC)
embedded in a thin film medium.
Information stored in the memory of the RFID chip is
transmitted by the antenna circuit embedded in the RFID
inlay via radio frequencies, to an RFID reader
3 types
 Passive
 Semi-passive
 Active

6. TYPES OF RFID TAGS
Active Tags Use a battery
•communicate over
distances of several
meters
Semi-passive Tags
•Contain built-in
batteries to power
the chip’s circuitry,
resist interference
and circumvent a
lack of power from
the reader signal
due to long
distance.
•They are different
from active tags in
that they only
transmit data at the
time a response is
received
Passive Tags
•Derive their power
from the field
generated by the
reader
•without having an
active transmitter to
transfer the
information stored

15. CONCLUSION
Positive
 RFID is a contactless reading technology and can read
through other materials
 Hold more data than barcode does
 RFID tags data can be changed or added
 More effective, bring lots of convenience to us
Negative
 Cost is relatively remain high (compare to barcode)
 RFID signals may have problems with some materials
 RFID standards are still being developed
