Rfid Technology : The Manufacturing, Retail And Ditribution Industry

As RFID technology evolves and becomes less expensive, there will be an increase in the number of companies and vendors using the technology. Eventually, new applications will be developed and these systems may even be able to solve common or unique problems associated with business in today’s market.

For the plant it has been decided to use the passive RFID technology, as it one of the cheapest solutions, moreover it requires antenas to be placed around the factory, which makes the control process simplier and more efficient.

Airbus focused on IT to manage its supply chain and improve the overall efficiency. RFID implementation played a key role in improving efficiency and visibility in its supply chain. RFID was implemented in the tool loan business where it used to lend tools to its customers that were required for the maintenance of the aircraft. The whole intention to implement RFID in the tool loan department was to improve efficiency by making tools available quickly to its customers and for proper traceability.

To justify the objective I have begun the research with literature revi9ew and by collecting the secondary data from the articles, peer reviewed journals, related research papers and books. Journals and articles were important to understand the challenges and risk RFID technology is facing .I Addition to data collected from another sources are discussing with industries who implemented and using RFID technology to track their products, Reviews and people who are technically involved with RFID technology helped me to collect the data required for my

The continued growth of RFID is directly proportional to its low-cost and easy application, and recent improvements in security and reliability have made it possible to use RFID in more ways than ever before: smart homes, healthcare management, food safety, and more.

Radio frequency identification (RFID) can be loosely linked all the way back to WW2 as a method of tracking allied planes versus enemy fighters during aerial combat (Roberti, 2005). In the PBSC class MAN4504, this technology was worshiped as a way to ring up an entire cart of groceries with one simple hovering swipe over top of all the merchandise contained within the cart. However, control freak school officials have recently gotten the idea that the RFID system might be amply used as a way to keep track of students. But, the problem with this somewhat big-brotherish type of philosophy is that it can, indeed, be construed as an invasion of privacy. If one is at all familiar with the Constitution that our

It also implemented throughout the healthcare industry. Some practices are using it to track and locate supplies to improve the overall efficiency of their inventory management process. Hospitals even use RFID on surgical tools to help reduce lost utensils.

RFID, or radio frequency identification, is the new system that is replacing the use of barcodes. RFID tags allow users to more quickly obtain information from the object that the RFID tag

Once a company decides to use RFID, the most important step in the process is being able to successfully gather the data and manipulate it into meaningful information. Doing this as effectively and efficiently as possible requires a proper RFID implementation, which for many reasons, can prove to be the most difficult stage of the entire process. A company new to RFID will find that many changes have to take place to make sure the implementation is as successful as possible. Ensuring a successful implementation involves changes in all fundamental areas of the company, including their systems and products (Zebra Technologies). While these changes will prove to be difficult, many companies find that they can conduct

Radio Frequency identification involves a small electronic device that has a small chip and antenna. 2,000 bytes of data can be carried by this chip. RFID devices give an object or product its unique identifier, just in the same way that bar codes and magnetic strips which are placed behind credit, ATM or debit cards. The data stored on the chip is only accessible when on scans the device and then the information is captured on the computer. Though one needs to scan the RFID device to gain access to the data, it is not mandatory that one places the scanner directly beside the chip. The chips can be read from approximately 20 feet as it does not use line of sight. This gives RFID a greater advantage over the other methods for automated data collection. RFID use radio waves to transmit a signal that can be read by a reader thus enabling the chip to transmit information to the scanner which then converts the data to machine readable information(Taghaboni-Dutta & Velthouse, 2006).

Recently, the RFID technology has evolved and is practically being used in many industries. This technology has already been widely used in America, Asia and other parts of the world. This paper mainly discusses the RFID applications in the traffic management, various other road related issues. The implementations of RFID technology has reduced fatality rates and also help us monitor traffic, parking and speed violations across the country. This monitoring of the traffic is commonly called as intelligent transportation systems (ITS).

In current era we have seen many implementations and changes which are globally used for logistics and implemented in several ways. In that RFID is one of the top implementing technologies in logistics. These are mainly used in the supply chain management and tracking persistence and different industries. In logistics management is to confirm the accessibility of resource at minimum cost for production. Make sure they deliver on time the products of low cost to the customer. Logistics is the process of strategically managing finding and storage of materials, part and complete inventory through organizational it’s selling channels in such a way that current futures profits are take advantage of through cost effective fulfillment order. We

Another significance of this study is to prove the transmission range of RFID when integrated into other devices and how useful the technology is. This study will also lead to future innovation that will use RFID technology in it most feasible aspects to aid people’s needs.

In the current times, radio frequency identification technology has upgraded from anonymity into applications that are rather used normally and as a consequence has helped in the acceleration of manufactured materials' handling (Want, 2006). There are several uses of RFID in various sectors. However, this paper will only deal with its uses in the transportation sector and how effectively this modern technology has helped in the growth of business and ease for people all over the world.

The capability of RFID innovation is tremendous. As opposed to prevalent thinking, RFID innovation is not late and the deferral in its organization in business applications is not just because of the over on top of
