In this paper, a dual band H-shaped microstrip patch antenna is designed for RFID application. Using shorting pin and H shaped for dual resonators and control dual frequency independently. The antenna shows a good performance at the frequency, 912MHz and 2.45GHz for the radiation characteristic and input impedance matching, as well. The reflection is lower than -10dB and a good directivity higher than 3dB is achieved for both frequency.

In this paper, we present the design and measurement of a side-fed circularly-polarized patch antenna with a dielectric loading. The antenna consists of a comer-truncated rectangular patch, an L-shaped ground plane, a dielectric loading material, and a coaxial probe. An antenna operating at the UHF band (910 MHz) for the RFID reader applications is optimized using a commercial software. The size of the patch is reduced by a factor of 1.73 by loading the patch with mono-cast(MC) nylon. Measurements of the fabricated antenna show performance characteristics comparable to those of much larger commercial RFID reader antennas.

The field of lightweight cryptography has developed significantly over recent years and many impressive implementation results have been published. However these results are often concerned with a core computation and when it comes to a real implementation there can be significant hidden overheads. In this paper we consider the case of cryptoGPS and we outline a full implementation that has been fabricated in ASIC. Interestingly, the implementation requirements still remain within the typically-cited limits for on-the-tag cryptography.

A design of circular polarized(CP) microstrip antenna with a fenced ground is proposed and the equivalent circuit is derived. The antenna consists of a square radiating patch with a pair of truncated comers, a bottom ground and a fenced ground. From conducted experiments, a patch size reduction using the metal fence as large as 25% from the conventional patch structure, has been obtained. The input admittance of the extracted equivalent circuit is shown to agree with that of the measurement. And the design parameters and performance of the proposed antenna are examined by analyzing the fields and circuit behaviors.

This article introduces developing trends of an "Ubiquitous Interface" as an access method for use of various network resources, such as public wireless networks and un-licensed wireless networks in ubiquitous sensor network environments, without troublesome settings or operations by users. "Ubiquitous Interface" is include a relatively wide sense meaning not only physical interface of specified device or between processors, but anything method for access USN. These "Ubiquitous Interface" able to provide seamless services that adapt autonomously to the user's movements and changes in the state of wireless resources. Recently, strongly recommended candidates are RFID, NFC, Multi-mode mobile terminal, Wearable computer and OSGi for integrated digital home networking system as a future ubiquitous interface. These candidates are have to have flexibility and multiple physical communication channel for seamless service hand over and serve easy connection at huge USN to user. And, must have flexible software structure and multi-functional middleware. Consequently, for more enhance performance of an ubiquitous interface and developing, need more structured and integrated future plan.

The magnetic inductance of nanocrystalline $Fe_{73}Si_{16}B_7Nb_3Cu_1$ and an amorphous FeSiB powder sheet has been investigated to identify RFID performance. The powder was mixed with binder and solvent and tape-casted to form films. Results show annealing significantly influenced on the inductance of the material. The surface oxidation of the particles was the main reason for the reduced inductance. The maximum inductance of $Fe_{73}Si_{16}B_7Nb_3Cu_1$ alloy was about $88{\mu}H$ at 17.4 MHz, about 65% greater compared to the FeSiB alloy. The higher inductance in the nanocrystalline alloy indicates it may be used as a potential replacement of current RFID materials.

There are some trials to adopt the RFID/USN technologies at container terminals for effective terminal operations. In this paper, we propose a realtime location recognition method for stacked containers under the assumption that each container has a wireless sensor node to measure the RSSI values from neighbor nodes. We develope an RSSI based location algorithm with performance evaluations by RSSI measurement and application program implementation.

The trend toward ubiquitous computing does not represent simply a change in the way people access and use information. In the end it will have a profound effect on the way people work with each other. In this paper, we have defined functionalities of an information system that helps operate a kind of smart office environment, and implemented the system using RFID technology. The system provides three major functions-time and attendance management, personalized message notification, and flexible seat allocation for a smart working center. We have also suggested the key performance indicators and performed a KPI analysis to measure an efficiency of implemented system.

RFID 미들웨어에서 저장소 역할을 하는 EPCIS는 이전까지 물품의 식별 정보만을 저장 및 관리하고 있었다. 하지만, 최근에는 많은 물류 분야의 응용에서 물품의 식별 정보뿐만 아니라 센서 및 위치 정보 등을 포함하는 다양한 물류 정보를 EPCIS에서 저장 및 관리하도록 요구하고 있다. 하지만, 현재 EPCIS에서는 RFID 태그의 식별 정보 이외의 정보에 대하여 처리를 하지 않고 있으며, 설령 처리한다하더라도 비효율적인 조인으로 인한 속도 저하가 일어날 수 있다. 즉, 각 정보 소자에 대한 복합 정보를 요구하는 응용에서는 개별적인 시스템에 질의를 한 후 결과를 조합해야 하는 부담이 있다. 본 논문에서는 물품의 식별 정보, 센서 및 위치 정보를 포함하는 지오센서 태그 데이터에 대한 효율적인 처리를 지원하기 위한 다양한 물류 환경의 정보와 질의 조건의 특징을 분석하며, 분석된 내용을 바탕으로 데이터 모델링을 제시한다.

An anti-collision algorithm is very important in the RFID system because it decides tag identification time and tag identification accuracy. We propose improved anti-collision algorithms using Bin slot in RFID system. In the proposed algorithms, if the reader memorizes the Bin slot information, it can reduce the repetition of unnecessary PingID command and the time to identify tags. If we also use ScrollA11ID command in the proposed algorithm, the reader knows the sequence of collided E bits. Using this sequence, the reader can reduce the repetition of PingID command and tag identification time. We analyze the performance of the proposed anti-collision algorithms and compare the performance of the proposed algorithms with that of the conventional algorithm. We also validate analytic results using simulation. According to the analysis, for the random tag n, comparing the proposed algorithms with the conventional algorithm, the performance of the proposed algorithms is about $130\%$ higher when the number of the tags is 200. And for the sequential tag ID, the performance of the conventional algorithm decreases. On the contrary, the performance of the proposed algerian using ScrollA11ID command is about $16\%$ higher than the case of using random tag ID.
