We propose a new method for recognizing the activities of daily living(ADL) based on the state-dependent motion analysis using 3-axial accelerometers and a glove type RFID reader. Two accelerometers are used for the classification of 5 body states based on the decision tree. Classification of the instrumental activities is performed based on the hand interaction with an object ID using an accelerometer and a RFID reader. Object-dependent hand movements are classified into 5 categories in advance and final decision combines the body state and the instrumental activities. Experiment shows that the suggested hierarchical motion analysis provides accuracy rate of over 90% for all 20 ADLs.

In these days, RFID adoption in supply chain management system needs technically part of the performance improvement of RFID Anti-Collision technology. We contrived new scanning algorithm that improve RFID Anti Collision performance, also can be applied to existing RFID readers. In this paper, the proposed algorithm were applied to the actual logistics scene recognition performance much better than the existing practices are presented. For improve of RFID Anti Collision performance, our algorithm implemented in the middleware associated with RFID PDA readers, and actually mount the RFID inventory data from the experiment were accumulated. Through this experiment, the proposed algorithm was confirmed that helps to minimize unaware area of the existing RFID inventory system and significantly improves performance of RFID field solution.

This paper described a metal mount RFID tag that works reliably on metallic surface. The proposed method is to use commercial RFID tags, Styrofoam103.7 material is attached on back side of RFID tag. Styrofoam103.7 material which has 2.5 mm thickness and 1.03 relative permittivity, was attached on back side of RFID tag. In order to verify the performance of proposed method, we evaluated the experiment on the supply chain system of electric transformers using RFID. The experimental results on supply chain of electric transformers show that the proposed tags can communicate with readers from a distance of 2 m. The results of recognition rates are comparable to commercial metallic mountable tags.

In this paper, the RF-ID system for ubiquitous tagging applications has been designed, fabricated and analysed. The RF-ID System consists of passive RF-ID Tag and Reader. The passive RF-ID tag consists of rectifier using zero-bias schottky diode which converts RF power into DC power, ID chip, ASK modulator using bipolar transistor and slot loop antenna. We suggest an ASK undulation method using a bipolar transistor to compensate the disadvantage of the conventional PIN diode, which needs large current Also, the slot loop antenna with wider bandwidth than that of the conventional patch antenna is suggested The RF-ID reader consist of patch array antenna, Tx/Rx part and ASK demodulator. We have designed the RF-ID System using EM and circuit simulation tools. According to the measured results, The power level of modulation signal at 1 m from passive RF-ID Tag is -46.76 dBm and frequency of it is 57.2 KHz. The transmitting power of RF-ID reader was 500 mW

For the implementation of a RFID system, an anti-collision algorithm is required to identify multiple tags within the range of a RFID Reader. There are two methods of anti-collision algorithms for the identification of multiple tags, conclusive algorithms based on tree and stochastic algorithms based on slotted ALOHA. In this paper, we propose a Dynamic Framed Slotted ALOHA-Slot Congestion(DFSA-SC) Algorithm. The proposed algorithm improves the efficiency of collision resolution. The performance of the proposed DFSA-SC algorithm is showed by simulation. The identification time of the proposed algorithm is shorter than that of the existing DFSA algorithm. Furthermore, when the bit duplication of the tagID is higher, the proposed algorithm is more efficient than Query Tree algorithm.

A smart tag complements various problems caused by the expansion of the use of existing magnet cards. This emerged as a result of the need for alternative means to perform safer and more diverse functions. RFID tags are becoming increasingly ubiquitous sensor networks and Internet of Things technologies as they give everything an ID, enabling automatic recognition of objects and forming a communication network between them. In this paper, a contactless RFID smart tag reader composed of RFID tags and readers using AVR processor was developed. The system has a low frequency band of 13.56MHz and is designed by PWM method of communication velocity 26.48kbps. The developed RFID smart tag board showed a faster response rate than the typical RFID system as a result of the simulation, and the actual experiment also showed an improvement in response rate.

Ubiquitous computing technology is widely used in not only our everyday lives but also in education, medical care, military, environment and administration. RFID system, the basis of ubiquitous, is in the spotlight which can be an alternative solution of a bar code recognition system and magnetic system as they basically have practicality and security issues. An electronic authentication named smart-key system is recently concerned by an alternative solution of the security unit for an automobile. RFID system which has a general purpose is also in the limelight by an application technology. In this paper we designed vehicle smart key system with general-propose RFID system that is already in use. First, we designed control unit and RFID card reader for vehicle smart key system. Then we propose an algorithm and prove that the vehicle key system is controllable by showing the result of implementing and testing, after installing. Also security level is enlarged by proposing a authentication protocol between RFID reader and control unit.

Recently UHF RFID system has drawn a great deal of attention because of its potential to revolutionize supply chain management. An important characterization of the performance of a RFID system is 'interrogation range', which is defined as the maximum distance between a reader and a tag. Forward-link interrogation range is defined as the maximum distance from which the tag receives just enough power to turn on and back-scatter, and reverse-tink interrogation range is the maximum distance from which the reader can detect this back-scattered signal. A link balance has to be found between the two interrogation ranges. In this paper, the interrogation range equations are formulated in both forward-link and reverse-link and a trade-off between the two values is investigated in order to maximize the interrogation range. As a result, it is observed that the gain of the reader antenna, the isolation of the circulator, and the phase noise of the local oscillator with range correlation effect mainly determine the reverse-link interrogation range.

This paper introduces a system that can help visually impaired people to board a bus using an embedded board with keypad, dot matrix, lidar sensor, NFC reader, a public data portal Open API system, and deep learning algorithm (YOLOv5). The user inputs the desired bus number through the NFC reader and keypad, and then obtains the location and expected arrival time information of the bus through the Open API real-time data through the voice output entered into the system. In addition, by displaying the bus number as the dot matrix, it can help the bus driver to wait for the visually impaired, and at the same time, a deep learning algorithm (YOLOv5) recognizes the bus number that stops in real time and detects the distance to the bus with a distance detection sensor such as lidar sensor.

Recently it is being increased rapidly to install magnetic marker and RFID tag on the underground utility lines before backfilling to ensure effective it's management. However, due to changes an attitude and damages of sensors. By pressure and vibration during soil compacting, detecting rate is significantly reduced as well as it allows to use only one line of various pipes since it has an unique frequency. Also it is required too long time to reach to target point with an non-accurate navigational GPS receiver and hard to update existing data base with a manual input of new data in the field. To improve these problems, the researcher developed the field management system that apply with ball typed self-levelling marker which is free from the changes of attitude for sensors during compaction as well as has various radio frequency applicable to many kind of pipes and ensure fast positioning to target point using an incorporated system with PDA based DGPS receiver which allows loading a field GIS software and RFID detector. Further, it provides with viewing all of RFID data on the DGPS receiver screen directly and also input new data to existing data base in the field automatically.
