Radio frequency identification (RFID) is a radiosupported identification technology that typically operates by saving a serial number on a radio transponder that contains a microchip for data storage. Via radio waves, the coded information is communicated to a reading device (Jones et al., 2005). RFID does not represent a new development; it was devised by the American military in the 1940s. Since the technology’s clearance for civil use in 1977, RFID has been successfully used for the identification of productive livestock, for electronic immobilizer systems in vehicles, or for the surveillance of building entrances (Srivastava, 2005). Due to decreasing unit costs (especially for passive transponders), RFID technologies now seem increasingly applicable for the labeling of goods and semi-finished products. By this, manual or semi-automatic data entry, for instance through the use of barcodes, can be avoided. This closes the technical gap between the real world (characterized by the lack of distribution transparency of its objects) and the digital world (characterized by logically and physically unambiguous and therefore distribution-transparent objects). In addition, RFID facilitates fully automated simultaneous recognition of more than one transponder without direct line of sight between reader and transponders.

Frequency Identification

RFID technologies represent a common standard for data storage and retrieval that could improve collaboration and data sharing between noncompeting organizations. With the advent of RFID (radio frequency identification), organizations have the opportunity to rethink how their organization will be. Unlike companies in the United States and Europe which are mandated by large retailers or government departments, most Taiwan companies are investing in RFID without pressure. The article explores the factor affecting radio frequency identification adoption applications in Taiwan. Its objective is to summarize the ways in which organizations are thinking about their possible uses in a wide variety of companies and industries. An empirical investigation (n=134) found seven factors affecting RFID adoption within Taiwan. They are operation efficiency, manufacturing efficiency and supply chain efficiency, organization context, investment cost, market environment, and technology characteristic. By providing insight into these important factors, this article can help further understanding of their role in the adoption and use of RFID. The theoretical and practical implications of these results are discussed.

Learning Data

Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) is an advanced tracking technology that can be used to study the spatial organization of individual’s spatio-temporal activity. The aim of this work is firstly to build a new RFID-based autonomous system which can follow individuals’ spatio-temporal activity, a tool not currently available. Secondly, the authors aim to develop new tools for automatic data mining. In this paper, they study how to transform these data to investigate the division of labor, the intra-colonial cooperation and conflict in an ant colony. They also develop a new unsupervised learning data mining method (DS2L-SOM: Density based Simultaneous Two-Level - Self Organizing Map) to find homogeneous clusters (i.e., sets of individual which share a similar behavior). According to the experimental results, this method is very fast and efficient. It also allows a very useful visualization of the results.

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), automatic identification by storing and sending data wirelessly via RFID card or transponders. A variety of recent applications of RFID have been developed in various sectors of life, especially related to identification via radio waves both in the field of automotive, biomedical, educational institutions, police, banks, transportation, and others. The purpose of this research is to design an RFID application in the field of libraries, so that RFID can be used as an alternative solution other than the barcode as the media identification data stored neatly in a book database program through the support of electromagnetic waves. At present we know that the national university library still uses paper to fill in the visit, to resolve the issue data from testing using the RFID method and the NodeMCU microcontroller, it can send data to a web application and can be stored in a database, It is expected that from the results of testing this application can solve the problems that exist in the library that previously members wrote a visit data to enter the future only need to tap the card to enter and do not need paper as a registration medium

Radio frequency identification (RFID) has generated vast amounts of interest in the supply chain, logistics, and the manufacturing area. RFID can be used to significantly improve the efficiency of business processes by providing automatic data identification and capture. Enormous data would be collected as items leave a trail of data while moving through different locations. Some important challenges such as false read, data overload, real-time acquisition of data, data security, and privacy must be dealt with. Good quality data is needed because business decisions depend on these data. Other important issues are that business processes must change drastically as a result of implementing RFID, and data must be shared between suppliers and retailers. The main objective of this article is focused on data management challenges of RFID, and it provides potential solutions for each identified risk.

Passive Transponders

The problems of radio frequency identification are discussed. It was shown that the use of passive transponders is preferable, but weak energy of system in this case reduces the operation distance and decreases the noise-immunity of the system. The problems of traditional radio-frequency identification systems are discussed. In this chapter the use of homodyne method of useful signal selecting was proposed. The augmentation signal of transponder was obtained by means of frequency shift with the help of controlled phase shifter. This solution allows to increase the energy and the noise-immunity of the system (the operation distance is increased). Furthermore, the interrogator can treat several transponders simultaneously in this case. Additionally the use of one-port transistor amplifier for increasing of operation range was proposed. The energy consumption of such amplifier and its cost are very low, but the gain of amplifier can reach 20 dB and more.

Frequency Identification

Radio frequency identification (RFID) system is an automatic data capturing system that relies on remotely retrieving data stored on tags using devices called readers. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and a team of contractors, university researchers and technology vendors collaborated to investigate the reliability of RFID systems for automated crew-free inventory control aboard the ISS. In this manuscript we detail the decade long research accomplishments and the maturity of this RFID technology that is being currently used in Space for inventory management.

AbstractThe data base of IUE spectra available for dissemination to the scientific community presently contains approximately 22,000 separate images. Due to storage space and computer processing time limitations, it was decided to store the data on high density (6250 bpi) specially formatted tapes and to retrieve and reconvert them to the originally supplied format upon request. The archival/retrieval system for the data and an automatic data entry system for creation and maintenance of an indexing data base are described. Suggestions are made for the use of standard formats for future image data storage, retrieval and dissemination.

RFID systems use radio waves to transfer data from electronic devices (TAG) to the reader, and then the reader forwards the received data to the control unit further processing. In today’s digitized world, radio frequency identification (RFID) is becoming a major way of digital identification for people, animals, objects, buildings, etc.
