3 RFID System RF Antenna Server Wireless Communications RFID Reader Data Ethernet LAN Tag Antenna Tag Antenna Tag IC RFID Tag Additional Readers Internet Port Internet Access Low cost RFID tags on products, flats, pallets, etc. RFID antennas and readers installed at tracking portals Database Server for collecting, processing and providing ID information Network/Internet access for tagged item information 8 April
4 RFID Concepts Define a non-contact system that can monitor and track items or individuals Provide unique identification that allows for a wide range of applications Perform the operation using unobtrusive, low cost components Use Wireless Communications techniques to facilitate the system design 8 April
5 Product Codes Uniform Code Council Inc. The UCC s family of wholly-owned subsidiaries, divisions, and partnerships powerfully connects companies in the supply chain with standards-based solutions that are universally open, industrydriven, and globally endorsed. This unique position provides an unprecedented blend of integrity, value, and authority to move global business forward to a more efficient future. Universal Product Code (UPC) Barcodes Electronic Product Code (epc) ( ) RFID Tags and Formats An alternative to UPC (future merging/replacement) Specifications 8 April
6 The EPCglobal Network The EPCglobal Network is a method for using RFID technology in the global supply chain by using inexpensive RFID tags and readers to pass Electronic Product Code numbers, and then leveraging the Internet to access large amounts of associated information that can be shared among authorized users. There are five components of the EPCglobal Network. 1. ELECTRONIC PRODUCT CODE (EPC) Unique number that identifies a specific object in motion in the supply chain. 2. ID SYSTEM The ID System consists of EPC tags and EPC readers. EPC tags* are RFID devices that consist of a microchip and an antenna attached to a substrate. The EPC is stored on this tag, which is applied to cases, pallets and/or items. EPC tags communicate their EPCs to EPC readers using RFID. EPC readers communicate with EPC tags via radio waves and deliver information to local business information systems using EPC Middleware.

7 The EPCglobal Network (2) 3. EPC MIDDLEWARE EPC Middleware manages real-time read events and information, provides alerts, and manages the basic read information for communication to EPC Information Services (EPC IS) and a company s other existing information systems. EPCglobal is developing a software interface standard for services enabling data exchange between an EPC reader or network of readers and information systems. 4. DISCOVERY SERVICES A suite of services that enable users to find data related to a specific EPC and to request access to that data. Object Naming Service (ONS) is one component of Discovery Services. 5. EPC INFORMATION SERVICES (EPC IS) Enables users to exchange EPC-related data with trading partners through the EPCglobal Network.

10 The WalMart Mandate Wal-Mart Backs RFID Technology Will require suppliers to use 'smart' tags by 2005 News Story by Jaikumar Vijayan and Bob Brewin JUNE 16, 2003 (COMPUTERWORLD) - Chicago Wal-Mart Stores Inc. last week said it plans to require its top 100 suppliers to put radio-frequency identification tags on shipping crates and pallets by January 2005, a move that's likely to spur broader adoption of the technology because of Wal-Mart's market clout. Leeway found in Wal-Mart's RFID mandate By Ann Bednarz, Network World, 11/29/04 According to ABI Research, only about 30% of Wal-Mart's top 100 suppliers will have accomplished full-scale RFID implementations by January. The remaining 70% have only been testing the waters with shallow "slap-and-ship" efforts. ("Slap-and-ship" refers to adding RFID tags at the distribution center, simply to meet retailer requirements, as opposed to integrating RFID technology early in manufacturing processes.) This story appeared on Network World Fusion at 8 April
11 The US Department of Defense (DoD) Memorandum from the Undersecretary of Defense, Subject: Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) Policy, 2 Oct Additionally, the DoD will be an early adopter of innovative RFID technology that leverages the Electronic Product Code (EPC) and compatible RFID tags. Our policy will require suppliers to put passive RFID tags on lowest possible piece part/case/pallet packaging by January We also plan to require RFID tags on key high value items. The DoD Components will establish initial capability to read RFID tags at key sites to be prepared for the January 2005 implementation. We will develop business roles based on the results of initial RFID projects to be completed and analyzed no later than May We will issue a final version of this policy in July The policy can be found at The DoD has established a web site for RFID. It can be reached using or 8 April
12 RFID Frequency Considerations Operating Frequency Ranges and Application Available Frequency Bands RF Signal Characteristics and Propagation Frequency Ranges LF 125 KHz HF MHz UHF MHz Typical Max Read Range (Passive Tags) Tag Power Source Microwave 2.45 GHz & 5.8 GHz Shortest 1"-12" Short 2"-24" Medium 1'-10' Longest 1'-15' Generally passive tags, using inductive coupling Generally passive tags, using inductive or capacitive coupling Active tags with integral battery or passive tags, EM-field coupling Active tags with integral battery or passive tags, EM-field coupling Data Rate Slower Moderate Fast Faster Ability to read near metal or wet surfaces Applications Better Moderate Poor Worse Access Control & Security, Identifying items through manufacturing processes or in harsh environments, Ranch animal identification, Employee IDs Library books, Laundry identification, Access Control, Employee IDs Supply chain tracking, Highway toll Tags Supply chain tracking, Highway toll Tags, Identification of vehicle fleets, Asset tracking 8 April
13 Frequency Bands ( khz) KHz used for access control and animal identification applications. This band enjoys relative freedom from regulatory limitations because it has not been reserved as an ISM frequency range, although in this frequency interval other systems operate typically for aeronautical and marine navigational services. This frequency range is well suited for applications requiring the reading of small amounts of data at low speed within minimal distances. Radio waves at these frequencies penetrate through water, tissue, aluminium and wood but do not penetrate across metals and large antennas are required to receive and transmit. Accenture, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) White Paper, 16 Nov April
14 Frequency Bands ( MHz ) MHz used for radio transcontinental connections and other ISM applications, such as remote control systems, demonstration radio equipment and pagers as well as integrated circuit (I.C.) card applications (which several working groups of the International Standard Organization (ISO) have been working on since 1998). This frequency range is well suited for applications requiring the reading of small amounts of data at low speed within minimal distances. At around 13.56MHz, electromagnetic fields can propagate through water and tissue but cannot penetrate metals. Antennas are made simply of turns of coils of small radius (10-20cms). It is important to note that the regulations regarding power levels allowed for RFID systems operating on this bandwidth differ from the U.S. to Europe. Accenture, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) White Paper, 16 Nov April
15 Frequency Bands (400 MHz-1 GHz ) 400MHz-1GHz used for several applications, also known as the Ultra High Frequency (UHF) range. Systems using this large band (from the lower to the higher end) are for example mobile commercial radio systems, TV broadcasting, telemetry systems, and amateur radio systems. Again, important differences exist between the U.S. and Europe, for example, for the frequency range across 915MHz, which is not available for ISM applications in Europe (GSM is present), whereas the bands MHz and MHz are available and used by some RFID systems commercialised in U.S. Electromagnetic waves do not penetrate closed metallic objects, but they may travel around open metallic items of finite size (e.g. a metal plate). Water and tissues do not allow propagation of radio waves. Accenture, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) White Paper, 16 Nov April
16 Frequency Bands (2.4 GHz 5.8 GHz ) GHz used partially by amateur radio systems. In this frequency range the electromagnetic waves act very much as optical rays, hence non-transparent obstacles attenuate the power of radio signals traveling through them GHz used by movement sensor systems such as those in shops or department stores.to Europe. Accenture, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) White Paper, 16 Nov April
17 RFID Specific Applications 135 khz, Electronic Article Surveillance (EAS) A one-bit pasive tag Walk through an inductive field and the alarm goes off Animal Identification Implant a smart chip in your pet of farm animals Close contact inductive readers, the signal must penetrate fluid! Personal Identification Cards TI s MHz credit card size (and smaller) IDs (replacement for card insertion or card swipe readers) Place the card near a reader and you gain access Hospital Asset and Patient Monitoring Assets Tracking and Location Patient (child) tagging for proximity detection Numerous non-rfid RF monitoring applications (based on similar technology) 8 April
18 RFID Systems in Use EZ-Pass Passive supply chain management RFID tags 915 MHz, EPC Global tags 8 April
19 Additional RFID Systems in Use WiFi Based RFID Use wireless ethernet technology to ID and track (IEEE b, a, & g) Active RFID Tag technology (WiFi chip set and a microcontroller) Excellent when WiFi Access Points already installed Health Care Locate and track equipment wheel chairs, portable beds, infusion pumps, etc. Automotive Manufacturing and Sales WiFi active tags placed on or in vehicles Allow car or large part locations to be determined in storage yards Aeroscout, Ekahau, Wavelink, PanGo, etc. Other RF Communications Systems used for RFID Active tags allow longer ranges at higher costs Writeable tags allow information storage, no need for a network database Passive tags are cheaper, but depend upon being externally powers 8 April
