Since libraries first used RFID systems in the late 1990's, there is growing debate about the advantages and disadvantages of HF and UHF RFID systems. This study tries to explore practical issues in HF and UHF RFID systems especially in the areas of system characteristics and advantages and disadvantages affecting technology implementation to libraries. This study investigates the current status of RFID systems in Korean libraries, and analyzes the best practices of four libraries(two libraries in HF and two libraries in UHF respectively). Also, this study describes functional characteristics of HF and UHF RFID systems, debates on frequencies in ISO/DIS 28560, and the opinions of both manufacturers which provide RFID systems to libraries and librarians who use HF and UHF RFID systems in their libraries.

This paper presents an Integer-N phase-locked loop (PLL) frequency synthesizer using a novel prescaler based on a charge pump and clock triggering circuit. A quadrature VCO has been designed for the 900MHz UHF RFID application. In this circuit, a voltage-controlled oscillator(VCO), a novel Prescaler, phase frequency detector(PFD), charge pump(CP), and analog lock detector(ALD) have been integrated with 0.35-${\mu}m$CMOS process. The integer divider has been developed with a verilog-HDL module, and the PLL mixed mode simulation has been performed with Spectre-Verilog co-simulator. The sweep range of VCO is designed from 828 to 960 MHz and the VCO generates four phase quadrature signals. The simulation results show that the phase noise of VCO is -102dBc/Hz at 100 KHz offset frequency, and the maximum lock-in time is about 4us with 32MHz step change (from 896 to 928 MHz).

In this paper, a design for the 900MHz bandwidth RFID reader antenna with circular polarization is proposed and experimentally investigated. The 900MHz bandwidth RFID reader antenna is proposed as a simple radiator with loading capacitor to generate LHCP(Left Hand Circular Polarization). Also, the design and fabrication of antenna has the returnloss of -32.28dB at the center frequency of 1010MHz and Bandwidth of 12.5% at 905Hz~1030MHz. Proposed LHCP antenna of maximum gain is 6dBi and satisfy axial ratio based on 2. From the measured result, axial ratios based on 2 are observed at the operating frequencies. The proposed antenna is suitable for RFID applications in wireless communications.

In this paper, we developed a RFID tag antenna using one-sheet inlay pattern which consist of two different frequencies in one layer. The antenna in one-sheet inlay RFID tag does not use different kind RFID antennas in a card but implement 13.56MHz and 900MHz RFID tag antennas in one sheet. In order to evaluate the usability of proposed method, we configured test equipments and designed 6 different patterns and test the recognition distance of each pattern. Among the one-sheet inlay RFID tag antenna designs, the pattern no.5 has good performance with recognition distance of 5.34m at 900MHz and 3.5m at 13.56MHz.

This paper presents the design of high sensitive/broadband tag antenna for Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) in Ultra High Frequency(UHF) band. A proposed tag antenna size is $60\;mm\;{\times}\;10\;mm\;{\times}\;1\;mm$. The resonant frequency is 910MHz and bandwidth is about 900 MHz at -10 dB below. The measured return loss and directional pattern have been confirmed a good agreement with the calculation results. The read range of proposed tag antenna with chip is observed about 6.5 m and proposed tag antenna has been observed an average 0.5 m for more than read range of the commercial tag antenna.

In this paper, an UHF-band 1 kW solid-state pulsed power amplifier was designed and implemented for the thermoacoustic imaging(TAI) at 900 MHz. The designed power amplifier has a pulse width of $80{\mu}s$ and a duty cycle of 1 % for short-pulse operation. The overall amplifier was implemented by combining of 16 single-power amplifiers adopting MRFE6P9220HR3 LDMOSFET using wilkinson power dividers. The solid-state pulsed power amplifier shows 25 % drain efficiency with a gain of 76.2 dB when the output power is 60.2 dBm for a -16 dBm input power at center frequency.

In this paper, a driving amplifier stage with 1 Watt output has been designed and fabricated, which is operating at UHF band( 470 ∼ 806 MHz) for digital TV repeater. In the driving amplifier stage, preamplifier and 1 Watt unit amplifier are integrated by one electric substrate which is 2.53 in dielectric constant and 0.8 mm thickness. When the driving amplifier stage is flown by bias voltage of 28 V DC and current of 900 mA. it has the gain of more than 53.5 dB. the gain flatness of $\pm$0.5 dB and return loss of less than -15 dB in 470 ∼ 806 MHz. Also, when two signals at 2 MHz frequency interval are input port into the driving amplifier stage with 1 Watt output, it resulted in excellent characteristics to designed specification with showing intermodulation distortion characteristics of more than 48 dBc.

Companies' efforts to find ways to reduce logistics costs for products and raw materials currently being brought in to produce products in all manufacturing processes are one of the biggest challenges, and the recent global recession has made logistics management even more important. This development technology limits the development of IN/OUT Bound truck logistics and dock management optimization system in the factory, especially by using UHF 900Mhz RFID radio frequency technology.

In this paper, we proposed the modeling of UHF frequency environment in a random mountainous area with line of sight. A transmitting station is defined as wanted transmitter(Wr) and a receiving station is defined as victim receiver(Vr). These set up victim link. A interference transmitter(It) and wanted receiver(Wr) set up interference link. We compared measured data at random mountainous area with data of the result using spectrum engineering advanced monte calo analysis tool(SEAMCAT), interference simulation based on the monte-carlo method. The desired received signal strength(dRSS) of SEAMCAT had the calculated error of 70% from the measured received signal strength because there was a topographical effect. Therefore, the effect of diffraction interference was included to lessen the power of transmitter in the proposed simulation. The cause of received power error are cable loss and errors of a measuring instrument. The proposed simulation modeling in UHF frequency environment expect that is the useful study on interference analysis and reassignment of broadcasting frequency.
