6. MINDWARE - INDIA (www.indianbarcode.com)
Issues for Consideration
• Tag Environment
– Will the tag:
• be exposed to weather?
• experience high temperatures?
• be susceptible to “high traffic”?
• Accessibility to Tag
– Will the tag:
• be hidden from view?
• be applied to an asset that is difficult to reach?
• be applied to an asset that should not be handled?
• be applied to an asset that is highly mobile?

Passive RFID Tags
• Components/Features:
– No Internal Battery- powered by energy emitted from a
reader.
– Smaller in size
– Store up to 128 kb of data
– Read/Write capability
– $$
• Applications
– Consumer Goods
– Inventory
– Books
– Smart Cards
– Documents

Inventory Management Analysis
• Battery: Tag only needs to emit frequency when
prompted by a reader.
• Size: Though human readable capability is required, the
smaller the better.
• Data storage: Asset ID ties all current asset details to a
master profile. Storage size becomes a non-issue.
• Read/Write: Tags will be used simply for asset
identification purposes. Write capabilities are not
necessary.
• $: Cost can make RFID implementations unattainable.

10. MINDWARE - INDIA (www.indianbarcode.com)
Ultra High Frequency
• Components/Features:
– Store small amounts of data
– Longer read range
– No secure communication
– $$
• Applications
– Warehouse management
– Pallet Identification
– Inventory
– Healthcare

11. MINDWARE - INDIA (www.indianbarcode.com)
Inventory Management Analysis
• Data: Only record asset ID. No need for large
amount of coded data.
• Read Range: The longer the read range the
better.
• Data Security: Sensitive data will not be stored
in the RFID tag, therefore secure
communications is not an issue.
• $: Cost is a major consideration, but read
range is necessary.
