In this paper, Air-interface protocols of ISO 18000-6 Type A and B applied to RFID system in UHF band are analyzed, and those algorithms are realized. Also, the improved anticollision algorithms for the Type A and B of ISO 18000-6 protocol are proposed and the performances are compared. As the results, reduction ratio of total tag recognition time of the improved ISO 18000-6 Type A algorithm is 35.2 % for 100 tags and 24.3% for 1000 tags with respect to standard algorithm, respectively. And the reduction ratio of the improved ISO 18000-6 Type B algorithm is 6.0% for 100 tags and 6.6% for 1000 tags. Therefore, the improved anticollision algorithm proposed in this paper is the advanced method improving the performance of tag recognition in the RFID system.

In this paper, a new NMOS current-mirror type bridge rectifier for driving RFID chips, whose minimum input voltage required to obtain the effective DC output voltage is low enough and whose power dissipation can be reduced than that of conventional one, is proposed. The designed rectifier is able to supply high enough and well-rectified DC voltages to drive RFID transponder chips for the frequency range of 13.56 MHz HF(for ISO 18000-3), 915 MHz UHF(fur ISO 18000-6), and 2.45 GHz microwave(for ISO 18000-4). Output characteristics of the proposed rectifier are analyzed with the high frequency equivalent circuit. And the circuitry method for effective reducing of the gate leakage current due to the increasing of operating frequency is also proposed theoretically. Using this method, the power consumption of $100\;{\mu}W$ and the DC output voltage of 2.13V for 3V peak-to-peak input voltage and $45\;K{\Omega}$ load resistance are obtained. Compared to conventional one, the proposed rectifier operates in more stable and shows superior characteristics in UHF and microwave frequencies.

In this paper, a new NMOS gate cross-connected current-mirror type bridge rectifier for UHF RFID applications is presented. The DC converting characteristics of the proposed rectifier are analyzed with the high frequency equivalent circuit and the gate capacitance reduction technique for reducing the gate leakage current due to the increasing of operating frequency is also proposed theoretically by circuitry method. As the results, the proposed rectifier shows nearly same DC output voltages as the existing NMOS gate cross-connected rectifier, but it shows the gate leakage current reduced to less than 1/4 and the power consumption reduced more than 30% at the load resistor, and it shows more stable DC supply voltages for the valiance of load resistance. In addition, the proposed rectifier shows high enough and well-rectified DC voltages for the frequency range of 13.56MHz HF(for ISO 18000-3), 915MHz UHF(for ISO 18000-6), and 2.45 GHz microwave(for ISO 18000-4). Therefore, the proposed rectifier can be used as a general purpose one to drive RFID transponder chips on various RFID systems which use specified frequencies.

In this paper, a CMOS complementary bridge rectifier for driving RFID transponder chips is presented. The proposed RFID CMOS complementary bridge rectifier is designed with two NMOSs at the input, which are configured by cross-connected gate structures, and two PMOSs and two NMOSs at the output, which are configured by diode-connected MOS structures. Output characteristics of the proposed rectifier are analyzed with the high frequency small-signal equivalent circuit and verified with SPICE for RFID operating frequencies of 13.56 MHz HF for ISO 18000-3, 915MHz UHF for ISO 18000-6, and 2.45 GHz microwave for ISO 18000-4. Simulation results show well-rectified and high enough DC output voltages for driving the low power microchip in the RFID transponder for the frequency range from HF to microwave. DC output voltages are dropped by only around 0.7 V from the input peak-to-peak voltages.

In this research, we propose the operational method of the RFID-based NPI (National Product Identifier) which can manage product assets for the Korean government in the future. First of all, we present the operational concept of the national product asset management. Second, we suggest the structure of the NPI which accommodates ISO/IEC 15459 and the method to encode NPI and related data to ISO/IEC 18000-6C tags. Finally, we propose the operational business processes to generate and manage NPI in the stages of product procurement and product asset management.

In this paper, a new high-efficiency CMOS bridge rectifier for driving RFID tag chips is designed and analyzed. The input stage of the proposed rectifier is designed as a cascade structure connected with two NMOSs for reducing the gate capacitance by circuitry method, which is the main path of the leakage current that is increased when the operating frequency is increased. This gate capacitance reduction technique using the cascade input stage for reducing the gate leakage current is presented theoretically. The output characteristics of the proposed rectifier are derived analytically using its high frequency small-signal equivalent circuit. For the general load resistance of $50K{\Omega}$, the proposed rectifier shows better power conversion efficiencies of 28.9% for 915MHz UHF (for ISO 18000 -6) and 15.3% for 2.45GHz microwave (for ISO 18000-4) than those of 26.3% and 26.8% for 915MHz, and 13.2% and 12.6% for 2.45GHz of compared other two existing rectifiers. Therefore, the proposed rectifier may be used as a general purpose rectifier to drive tag chips for various RFID systems.

This paper presents comparison of 18000-3 ASK and PJM mode RFID in terms of reading speed. This is accomplished by counting the occurrences of a few representative blocks which constitute the reader / tag interactions for each mode. To apply FS (frame slotted)-aloha protocol, four Q-algorithms, which are a Q-algorithm suggested in the standard document, a fixed Q-algorithm, a minimum Q-algorithm and the number of tag dependent Q-algorithm, are used. Through some simulations, we present the reading speed of each mode with respect to the Q-algorithm and the comparison of the reading speed between the two modes for each Q-algorithms.

There are many different ID representation forms depending on the media or applications. In case of RFID tag, ID representation form must be followed by the rule of ISO/IEC 15962. In this study, we developed the efficient ID conversion algorithm between ID representation form on RFID tag and Internet. The main idea is on the use of XML based ID profiles and three step logical IDs forms. The algorithm was tested by the typical three kinds of real IDs such as EPC, ISO/IEC 15459 KKR Code, and mCode which are the typical meta-IDs can be defined in ISO/IEC 18000-6C tag.

This paper presents the theoretical tag-reading speed in the ASK and the PJM mode of a 13.56MHz RFID system which have been adopted in the international standard ISO 18000-3, along with simulation results to support the mathematical analysis. Through the analysis using the number of tag-dependent Q-algorithm, which was known to give relatively fast reading speed, we not only derive the number of slots to read out given tags, but compare the reading speeds of the ASK with that of the PJM mode. Moreover, we present the numerical comparison of two modes which bring the equivalent results as in the theoretical one.

In recent years, the Internation Standard ISO/IEC 18000-6 is announced and a new scheme of Type C is added to conventional standard. Among the RFID systems the ISO/IEC 18000-6 standard is the most interesting to companies due to its potential market growth. The operating frequency is between 860-960 MHz, and three kinds of RFID system are included in the standard, i.e. type A, B and C. In this paper, we implemented the data frame of type C with baseband coding using VHDL. The data frame is encoded based on Miller code and FM0. We showed the implementation results with waveforms. The data frame was proved that it is properly implemented by the experiment of transmission and receiving operation.
