EPC (Electronic Product Code) tags and RFID (Radio Frequency IDentification) technology are said to have potential to change the ways individuals, organizations and societies operate on the everyday basis. In the near future, it is expected that every major retailer will use RFID and EPC systems to track the movement of products from suppliers to warehouses, store backrooms and eventually to points of sale. Recent efforts in EPC tags and RFID technology attempt to achieve an appropriate kind of interaction between technical and business areas. In this paper, we explore the fundamental characteristics of RFID and EPC applications and then review the different research studies of RFID technology and EPC system that have been proposed new theories and concepts that have emerged and utilized in different business fields of manufacturing and logistics. It provides an overview of the study achievements within the domain and critically evaluates the various approaches through the use of a case study and the construction of its comparison framework. The different research studies indicated that RFID and EPC systems will become more pervasive in the future and the changes that occur over the next few years will make for a further fascinating research area.

In this paper, we design rectifing circuits at 910MHz, which is used for passive RFID system, for wireless power transmission system by using two types of schottkey diodes HSMS_2822 and HSMS 2852, and the RF-DC conversion efficiencies for the curcuits are compared and analyzed in terms of input power and load resistance. When the input power is -20 to 17dBm, the conversion efficiency for HSMS_2852 is larger than in case of HSMS_2822. The output voltage and current at the load of the fabricated rectifying circuit are measured through a dipole antenna when input power is transmitted by a RFID reader and the diatance varies. The measured ouput volatge and current for the distance of 50cm are 2.5V and 5.75mA.

Recently, retail store automation appliance market is changed with traditional POS systems techniques and RFID, radio POS system, and self checkout system, etc. in the foreign advanced distribution industry. Retailers and consumers require convenient POS system which can provide more functions and fast service. These requests bring to rapid evolution of various H/W and S/W corresponding with POS system. In this study with the POS systems and the RFID technology we develop core technology of movable u-POS system based on RFID that can use in large store. So we propose u-Cart system that can alternate the current shopping cart and POS terminal and that provide value added services to customer. As the result we present the configuration of u-Cart terminal device(WMDT : Wireless Mobile Data Terminal) including RFID reader module that can provide various information to consumer and some convenient client applications that are running in WMDT and u-POS administration service module.

The core infra-technology in the ubiquitous era, RFID which has taken action from the public institution with the pilot projects as well as the practical projects is gradually extending its spectrum to the private enterprises. Along with its expansion, the audit required on the RFID-based information system is also growing in the industry. Especially, since RFID-based information systems, especially compared to other information systems, are likely to be exposed to many threats, the security audit for them is being emphasized. This paper suggests security audit checking items for the RFID-based information system, which can be used to perform the efficient security audit. The security audit checking items consist of eight basic checking items, each of which consists of detailed review items and can be applied for each building steps of the system(analysis, design, implementation, testing, and development). Finally, this paper confirmed the efficiency of the security audit checking items proposed in this paper through survey by the experienced auditors and analysis of practical audit cases.

This study reviews previous studies about the effects of RFID capabilities on strategic supply chain competence and business performance in the Chinese context. This study introduces a new perspective that measures the degree to which RFID capability levels contribute to business performance. Such an assumption is based on the fact that companies build their own capabilities through RFID capabilities and that these capabilities provide a competitive advantage for enterprises. Data on all sorts of logistics, distribution, and manufacturing companies that introduced RFID system in China were collected for data analysis. This study analyzes the structural equation modeling using Smart-PLS 2.0 program. This study confirms that internal reliability, convergent validity, and discriminant validity are satisfied. The hypothesis test result on the relationship between RFID capacity and strategic supply chain competence and strategic supply chain competence and company results is partially adopted. This study aids in establishing a RFID system construction strategy to enhance supply chain competence by suggesting guidelines for the successful introduction of RFID system through identifying the causal relationship between RFID capacity and strategic supply chain competence. This study also suggests the influence of RFID competency on visibility, agility, flexibility, and collaborations.

RFID technology is evaluated as one of core technologies for ubiquitous environment, because of its various characteristics which barcode systems don't have. However, RFID systems have consumer's privacy infringement problems, such like information leakage and location tracing. We need RFID privacy protection protocols, that satisfy three essential security requirements; confidentiality, indistinguishability and forward security, in order to protect consumer's privacy perfectly. The most secure protocol, that satisfies all of the three essential security requirements, among existing protocols, is the hash-chain based protocol that Ohkubo proposed. Unfortunately this protocol has a big disadvantage that it takes very long time to identify a tag in the back-end server. In this paper, we propose a scheme to keep security just as it is and to reduce computation time for identifying a tag in back-end server. The proposed scheme shows the results that the identification time in back-end server is reduced considerably compared to the original scheme of Ohkubo protocol.

Typical RFID-device applications have provided users to each vendor-specific interface for supporting control and management of RF-tags and readers within their managed domain. Also, typical RFID-business applications have been implemented by using each event-data structure of RF-readers or RFID middlewares. RFID infrastructure managers, thus, are difficult to handle individual control and management specifications for managed RF-tags, devices and systems. Most RFID application services, also, are attached to providing visibility and traceability of an RF-tag item. To solve these problems, this paper proposes an RFID service management policy information model which supports to define unified control and management for heterogeneous RFID devices, middlewares and applications. This paper describes an example procedure that an RFID service management policy definition based on the proposed model is adaptively transformed and executed on a specific RFID sub-infrastructure.

물류 산업이 크게 성장함에 따라 유통 및 관리되어야 할 물류량 또한 증가하게 되었다. RFID 시스템은 이에 대한 효율적인 관리 방법의 대안으로 떠올랐다. 하지만 RFID 시스템의 특성상 외부에 노출되어 운용되며, 이에 따라 다양한 외부 요소의 간섭으로 인해 RFID 태그 인지 오류를 야기할 수 있다. 뿐만 아니라 RFID 물류 유통 모니터링에 적용된 RFID 시스템은 실시간 모니터링을 위해 스트리밍 형태로 데이터가 발생하여 인지 오류의 감지가 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 RFID 시스템의 약점을 해결하기 위해 RFID 시스템에서 발생하는 스트리밍 데이터를 대상으로 실시간 오류 감지를 할 수 있는 알고리즘을 제안한다.

In this study, we propose an RFID based container terminal operation process. Field tests are conducted for 900 MHz (truck identification) tag and 433 MHz RFID (container identification/e-seal) tag at an Incheon container terminal to verify possibility of applying RFID in the container terminal gate. To evaluate effect of applying RFID in the container terminal operation, simulation models for current and RFID based container terminals are developed using ARENA. Simulations are carried out using industrial field data and the result indicates that performance of the container terminal can be prominently improved after RFID application.
