Technology And Technology : Radio Frequency Identification

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.

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

While the Radio Frequency Identification Device has been in existence for almost 50 years, the use of this chip in human beings is an advancement of the technology. The chip has mainly been used for tracking animals and goods throughout is existence. Generally, the RFID chip consists of two main parts i.e. an antenna and integrated circuit chip. It's been used as an effective detection mechanism since the antenna can recognize the chip regardless of whether it's within its line of sight (Alam, 2011).

Today, RFID is used in retail, manufacturing, healthcare, agriculture, travel, entertainment, etc. RFID increases efficiency of operations, decreases reliance on manual process, improves asset visibility and traceability, reduces operation costs, and provides useful data for business analytics. There are many different reasons why companies and firms are beginning to make the switch to RFID, some examples are: automating inventory and asset-tracking in healthcare, manufacturing, retail, and business sectors; identifying the source of products, enabling intelligent recall of defective or dangerous items; prevent use of counterfeit products in the supply chain; improve shopping experience for consumers; provide visibility into the supply chain

The purpose of an RFID system is to enable data to be transmitted by a portable device, called a tag, which is read by an RFID reader and processed according to the needs of a particular application. The data transmitted by the tag may provide identification or location information, or specifics about the product tagged, such as price, color, date of purchase, etc. The use of RFID in tracking and access applications first appeared during the 1980s. RFID quickly gained attention because of its ability to track moving objects. As the technology is refined, more pervasive - and invasive - uses for RFID tags are in the works.

A RFID tag is a “Radio Frequency Identification Tag” is a device that is used as a specific identifier of the object it is attached to. It signals can be read when within proximity of a device built to read its radio waves. They are small chips that are built from silicon and are usually used for products in stores, ID cards, and even cars (Abelson, Ledeen, Lewis 25).

Introduction: In many industries time is money. When time is money, you have to make sure that you are spending that time in the most effective and efficient manner. With RFID technology you can hit both of these points, making it a “two birds with one stone” scenario. When the systems are implemented properly (and properly is the key point) RFID technology is faster and more accurate than traditional methods of scanning and tracking.

Radio-frequency identification (RFID) uses electromagnetic fields to automatically identify and track tags attached to objects. The tags have stored electronical information. Generally speaking, there are two types of RFID tags, passive tag and active tag. Passive tags collect energy from a nearby RFID reader 's radio waves. Active tags have a local power pack unit such as a battery and may operate at hundreds of meters away from the RFID reader. RFID technology was first used during in 1940s, in World War II RFID was used to identify aero planes. The goal was to use the aero plane 's radar signal to read an ID number in order to confirm whether they were allies or enemies. As time goes by, RFID technologies are now widely used in almost all industrial sectors, for example aerospace, automotive, logistics, transport, health, life, etc. In our following report, we will discuss the technologies used in RFID, differences between Barcoding and RFID, current bottlenecks of RFID development, and visions of RFID usage in the future.

Just as all other technologies have such difficulties, RFID technology has obstacles to overcome. Two main concerns are discussed in this paper: radio wave technology hindrances such as collisions, and the ethical concerns that entangle this controversial yet extremely helpful technology.

RFID is a term utilized for Radio recurrence Identification. RFID is a creating innovation and have numerous uses throughout our life.

Abstract—Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is a technology for automated identification of people and products, and is getting more involved in our daily lives. RFID consists of a RFID tag or transponder, a RFID reader or transceiver, and the data processing system has been evolving with time. RFID technology is also helpful when used with money, but there is a main limitation while using RFID technology. It is privacy and security. That is why, Electrical and computer engineers work with this limitation, so RFID would be the future for all engineers.

The RFID technology consists of three key elements: RFID tags, RFID readers, and a back-end database server to identify information. The RFID tag stores its particular ID and some application data for RFID readers thus the tag contains electronically stored information which is used for access control system. The major advantage of using the RFID tag is that it allows convenience contactless access. However, the traditional RFID-based access control system identifies an individual only by means of his or her RFID card that is anyone who presents a registered RFID card will pass the authentication even he/she is not the genuine card holder or owner. Moreover, there are many RFID attacks which are:

RFID in aspects such as cost, standard, accuracy and application mode in the popularization and application of met a lot of challenges. Mainly manifested in the following several aspects: the lack of mature application mode and industry standards, as well as related products do not have a unified standard. Standardization is necessary measures, pushed the market products are widely accepted but the technology of RFID reader and tag is still not unified, so it is not integration. And different manufacturers of the development of the label communication protocol, using different frequencies, and packet format is different. Price is one of the problem with restricting the development of RFID application market. RFID system whether tags, reader and the antenna, its price is more expensive. Until the new manufacturing technology is popularized, the high cost of RFID tags can only be used for some products with higher value

Radio Frequency Identification Technology (RFID) is basically a special tag implanted into a product which can identify and track the product via radio waves. These tags can carry up to 2,000 bytes of data. RFID tags are tiny computer chips that transmit radio signals which are put onto packages or shipping containers to help organization identity product locations and movement. They have many different application in both manufacturing and service industries, since RFID tags are being embedded in virtually everything, including clothes, supermarket

RFID technology is not only used at gas stations, restaurants, and department but also at
