 Radio-frequency identification (RFID) is an 
automatic identification method, relying on storing 
and remotely retrieving data using devices called 
RFID tags or transponders. The technology 
requires some extent of cooperation of an RFID 
reader and an RFID tag. 
 An RFID tag is an object that can be applied to or 
incorporated into a product, animal, or person for 
the purpose of identification and tracking using 
radio waves. Some tags can be read from several 
meters away and beyond the line of sight of the 
reader.
 A basic RFID system consist of three components: 
An antenna or coil -: The antenna emits radio signals to 
activate the tag and read and write data to it. Antennas are 
the conduits between the tag and the transceiver, which 
controls the system's data acquisition and communication. 
A transceiver (with decoder) -: The RF transceiver is the source 
of the RF energy used to activate and power the passive RFID 
tags. The RF transceiver controls and modulates the radio 
frequencies that the antenna transmits and receives. The 
transceiver filters and amplifies the backscatter signal from a 
passive RFID tag. 
A transponder (RF tag): An RFID tag is comprised of a 
microchip containing identifying information and an antenna that 
transmits this data wirelessly to a reader. E.G.-: MAC Address, 
unique bluetooth addresses in devices.
 RFID full form being Radio Frequency identification 
was first used in 1940’s to identify aeroplanes mainly 
for military application. Like planes of allies or enemies 
 Modern applications being identification of electronic 
devices 
 In wireless sensors laptops in mobile phones having a 
unique MAC (Media Access Control) address 
 In Bluetooth Devices as we have a different bluetooth 
address for different devices leading to ease of 
identification.

 RFID is a very useful technology in automation 
of Car Tracking System in a Mall/Building. It 
will automatically deduct the amount from the 
RFID tag of vehicle owner and open the door 
for parking and increment the counter of 
parking. Similarly it will open the door on exit 
and decrement the parking counter. It will also 
provide the security besides automation of 
parking through RFID technology.

FOR 
THE 
PROJECT
 No "line of sight" requirements: Bar code reads can sometimes be 
limited or problematic due to the need to have a direct "line of 
sight" between a scanner and a bar code. RFID tags can be read 
through materials without line of sight. 
 More automated reading: RFID tags can be read automatically 
when a tagged product comes past or near a reader, reducing the 
labor required to scan product and allowing more proactive, real-time 
tracking. 
 Improved read rates: RFID tags ultimately offer the promise of 
higher read rates than bar codes, especially in high- speed 
operations such as carton sortation. 
 Greater data capacity: RFID tags can be easily encoded with item 
details such as lot and batch, weight, etc. 
 "Write" capabilities: Because RFID tags can be rewritten with new 
data as supply chain activities are completed, tagged products 
carry updated information as they move throughout the supply 
chain.
 Some common problems with RFID are reader 
collision and tag collision. Reader collision 
occurs when the signals from two or more 
readers overlap. The tag is unable to respond to 
simultaneous queries. Systems must be 
carefully set up to avoid this problem. Tag 
collision occurs when many tags are present in 
a small area; but since the read time is very 
fast, it is easier for vendors to develop systems 
that ensure that tags respond one at a time.
