RFID - Radio-Frequency
IDentification
Radio-frequency identification (RFID) uses electromagnetic fields to automatically identify and track tags attached
to objects. The tags contain electronically stored information. Passive tags collect energy from a nearby RFID
reader's interrogating radio waves. Active tags have a local power source (such as a battery) and may operate
hundreds of meters from the RFID reader. Unlike a barcode, the tag need not be within the line of sight of the reader,
so it may be embedded in the tracked object. RFID is one method for Automatic Identification and Data
Capture (AIDC).

How does this little thing works ?
What is RFID
RFID is a system that use for digital data encoded in
RFID tags or smart labels are captured by a reader via
radio waves. The most notable is that RFID tag data
can be read outside the line-of-sight, whereas barcodes
must be aligned with an optical scanner.

Advantages of RFID
Readability – Highly automated
simultaneous process without any line
of sight
Less human interaction
Can be programmed/ reuse for multiple
process
Durable and reliable
Number of security methods can be
applicable
Event trigger – can be programmed for
number of events such as item check
in shop lifting, warehouse security

Frequency
Passive RFID tags primarily operate at three frequency ranges:
Low Frequency (LF) 125 -134 kHz
High Frequency (HF)13.56 MHz
Ultra High Frequency (UHF) 856 MHz to 960 MHz
Near-field communication devices operate at the same frequency (13.56 MHz) as HF
RFID readers and tags. The standards and protocols of the NFC format is based on
RFID standards outlined in ISO/IEC 14443, FeliCa, and the basis for parts of ISO/IEC
18092. These standards deal with the use of RFID in proximity cards.
Frequency Range Frequency Passive read distance
Low frequency 120-140 KHz 10-20 CM

implementing RFID for production site can significantly improve the productivity by
having number of automations.
PRODUCTION
RFID has proved to improve the retail customer experience to gain more sales
RETAIL
RFID can full automated number of steps that consume large amount of labour and
time.

Can save large number of human hours due to the
speed and automated readers
TIME
RFID gates and end points can be programmed to use
the same tags to avoid any unauthorises items
checkouts trough the gates
THEFT PREVENTION
RFID system works with number of automated process
to avoid any mis handling of items or quantities to
receive or release items from the detection points
MIS-HANDLING

ADVANTAGES
once the items are equipped with RFID, systems can
be setup to work without any human interactions at the
number of process
AUTOMATION
Since the accuracy is above 98% , planners can use
the numbers to be accurate maintain stocks
SRINK INVENTORY
Inventory accuracy is one of the main advantage of
using RFID, since it is fully automated system compare
to manual & barcodes, RFID can offer fully automated
less accurate figures in seconds to make management
decisions

RFID Market
This statistic represents the projected size of the
market for RFID tags from 2016 to 2020.
In 2020, the global market for RFID tags is
projected to be sized at around 24.5 billion U.S.
dollars.
