Mobile RFID system, that consists of the existing RFID reader mounted on the mobile devices such as smartphones, is able to provide the users a variety of services and convenience. Although the users can get the information about a certain product anytime anywhere, there is high probability that their privacy may be violated because their belongings with RFID tags can be scanned by other mobile readers at any time. Several RFID authentication schemes have been proposed to deal with these privacy issues. However, since the existing solutions require heavy computation on the tag side, most of them is not applicable to the general low-cost passive tags which do not have any processing unit. In this paper, we propose the efficient authentication scheme for mobile RFID system applicable to the passive tags as well as the active ones by the best use of computing capability of mobile devices. The proposed scheme satisfies the import security issues such as tag protection, untraceability, anti-traffic analysis. We also implement the proposed scheme on top of real smartphone for feasibility and show the experimental results from it.

RFID 태그에 통신 기능이 부가되고 점차 주위 환경을 감지하는 센싱 기능이 부가되면, 능동적으로 정보를 처리하는 지능형 초소형 스마트 센서 네트워크로 발전되어 현재의 고정된 개체 인식 코드 획득 수준에서 다기능 태그에 의한 상황인지 처리 수준으로 진화하여, 개체간 통신 기능을 갖춘 지능형 USN으로 발전할 것으로 전망 된다. ZigBee는 기기간 센서 네트워크를 구성, 단순 제어와 관리를 수행할 수 있는 WPAN의 최적의 기술로 평가 받고 있으며 저 전력, 저가 등의 장점 등으로 시장 성장성이 높은 기술이다. 유/무선 인프라를 확보하고 있는 우리는 ZigBee를 기존, 또는 현재 구축중인 유무선 네트워크와 연결해 다양한 유비쿼터스 서비스를 개발할 수 있는 최적의 테스트베드 환경을 갖추고 있으므로 u-Health의 기반에 꼭 필요한 기술이다.

최근 대두되고 있는 웹2.0의 특징은 일반 사용자들이 능동적으로 정보를 생산해내고 공유하는데 있다. 웹 2.0의 참여형 아키텍쳐를 구성하는 핵심요소로 인식되고 있는 폭소노미(Folksonomy)는 과거 택소노미(Taxonomy)와 같이 전문가에 의하여 구축되는 분류 체계가 아닌 사용자들이 협동적으로 태그(Tag)들을 만들고 관리하는 소셜 태깅(Social Tagging)에 의한 분류 시스템이다. 최근 이러한 폭소노미를 활용하여 이미지를 공유하고 검색하고자 하는 다양한 시도들이 진행되고 있다. 그러나 Flickr와 같은 태그 기반 이미지 공유 시스템에서는 태그의 문법적, 의미적 모호성과 이미지에 대한 태그들의 중요성 또는 상관관계를 고려하지 않아 태그 기반 검색 시 정확성 및 신뢰성을 보장할 수 없다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 폭소노미에 기반한 이미지 공유 데이터베이스에서 적합한 태그들을 태그 전달(Tag Propagation)하거나 확률 및 출현빈도에 기반하여 태그 랭킹을 수행하기 위한 연구들이 활발히 진행되고 있지만 여전히 만족할만한 성능을 보이지 못하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이미지 공유 데이터베이스에서 유사한 이미지들로부터 이미지에 보다 적합한 태그들을 부여하기 위해서, WordNet을 활용하여 태그들 간의 의미관계에 기반한 효율적인 태그 랭킹 기법을 제안한다. 또한, 신뢰성 있는 태그 기반 검색을 위하여 제안한 태그 랭킹 기법이 현재 이미지 공유 시스템의 랭킹 결과보다 정확성을 높일 수 있음을 실험 예제를 통하여 확인하였다.

This paper will show how self-alarming EAS(Electronic Article Surveillance) system can improve its receiving performance of magnetic field signal and reduce false alarm using dual-band wireless communication. Our research improved the receiving performance and the areas of recognition of magnetic signal through the change of VLF receiving circuit and alarm transmitting method. In addition, we verified the reduction of false alarm by improvement of integrity and distance between tag and receiver through experiment. Thanks to our research, we can build the high performance and economical EAS with low false alarm on the multi gate store.

An active RFID system has the advantages of a long identification distance and a good identification rate as well as overcoming the passive RFID's drawback such as the lowering of identification rate on metal materials. So, the development of an active RFID system has been gradually increasing in harbor logistics and the national defense area. On the other hand, some identification failures between products developed under the same standards have been reported, and there are difficulties in evaluating the interoperability between developed Products and standard conformance test because an accurate evaluation method and equipment has not been established at the international level. Motivated by these, this study presents a realization of the hardware and software of emulator to evaluate the standard conformance of an active RFID system, Performance of the designed system are then analyzed by means of simulations of Matlab/Simulink, and the applicability of the emulator is verified by evaluating the standard conformance of a real active RFID tag.

In maritime logistics, the technology for transmitting status information has been greatly developed, but it has not been available in general logistics environment or it is impossible to support two-way communication as it simply receives and transfers a container's information. In particular, to support two-way communication in all sections of the global maritime logistics, the address value, which can identify the tag, should be managed. In this context, to improve the 433 MHz-based RFID, the project called "DASH 7" has been conducted in recent years. However, it has stopped proceeding because of its slow progress, including the standardization and development of references. In this paper, we introduced an active IP-RFID system configuration for real-time communication in global maritime logistics using a two-way communication-which is characteristic of an IP-applying virtual address values in the RFID tag, and proposing its process and function. When you apply the IP-RFID system proposed in this paper, not only real-time status tracking in the maritime logistics area is possible, but it is also applicable for controlling the tag.

This paper describes the design for radiation pattern directivity of vehicle license plate RFID tag antenna to improve the readable range. Directivity pattern of the proposed passive antenna is decided by the meander line position and the bumper size attached to the tag antenna. In order to prove the verification of the calculated directivity pattern and readable range of the proposed antenna, the tag antenna has been fabricated and measured at the anechoic chamber. It is shown that the maximum directivity gain of the measured radiation pattern of active and passive tag antenna were observed 2.32 dBi and 3.1 dBi, respectively. The maximum readable range of passive tag antenna was measured about 8.5 m at ${\pm}45^{\circ}$ beam direction on the basis of the driving car direction($0^{\circ}$ of azimuth angle).

The Wireless Ad Hoc network is discussed as a core technology for ubiquitous computing, and the smart tag technology is currently being actively discussed as a part of the sensor network. Thus, considering its security may advance the realization of ubiquitous computing. RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technology using the smart tag technology as a part of the sensor network is currently in the limelight. In particular, when RFID is applied to a knowledge management system managing various data, data mobility and management convenience are ensured and automated knowledge service can be provided to users. Accordingly, this paper to proposed a secure scheme for mobility knowledge management systems using multi-agents differentiated from the existing knowledge management systems. Specifically, the proposed scheme designates user's authentication and privilege information in multi-agents and provides effective knowledge service through grouping based on user information. Moreover, even user's movement, the proposed scheme ensures service availability and provides continuous information through communication with multi-agent systems.
