1. RFID APPLICATION Yeung Lai Yiu 13207520 Friday, October 11, 2013 2. Introduction of RFIDApplicationsSurvey resultsFuture development and opportunitiesConclusion 3. RFID RFID = Radio Frequency Identification Electronic labeling and wireless identification of objects using radio frequency Tag carries with its information a serial number Model number Color or any other imaginable data When these tags pass through a field generated by a compatible reader, they transmit this information back to the reader, thereby identifying the object 4. RFID components A basic RFID system consists of these components: A programmable RFID tag/inlay for storing item data; Consisting of an RFID chip for data storage an antenna to facilitate communication with the RFID chip A reader/antenna system to interrogate the RFID inlay Application software and a host computer system 5. RFID Tag The RFID tag consists of an integrated circuit (IC) embedded in a thin film medium. Information stored in the memory of the RFID chip is transmitted by the antenna circuit embedded in the RFID inlay via radio frequencies, to an RFID reader 3 types Passive Semi-passive Active 6. Types of RFID Tags Active Tags Use a battery communicate over distances of several metersSemi-passive Tags Contain built-in batteries to power the chips circuitry, resist interference and circumvent a lack of power from the reader signal due to long distance. They are different from active tags in that they only transmit data at the time a response is receivedPassive Tags Derive their power from the field generated by the reader without having an active transmitter to transfer the information stored 7.
