Although all printed cost-less radio frequency identification (RFID) tags have been considered as a core tool for bringing up a ubiquitous society, the difficulties in integrating thin film transistors (TFTs), diodes and capacitors on plastic foils using a single in-line printing method nullify their roles for the realization of the ubiquitous society1,2. To prove the concept of all printed cost-less RFID tag, the practical degree of the integration of those devices on the plastic foils should be successfully printed to demonstrate multi bit RFID tag. The tag contains key device units such as 13.56 MHz modulating TFT, digital logic gates and 13.56 MHz rectifier to generate and transfer multi bit digital codes via a wireless communication (13.56 MHz). However, those key devices have never been integrated on the plastic foils using printing method yet because the electrical fluctuation of fully printed TFTs and diodes on plastic foils could not be controlled to show the function of desired devices. In this work, fully gravure printing process in printing 13.56 MHz operated 32 bit RFID tags on plastic foils has been demonstrated for the first time to prove all printed RFID tags on plastic foils can wirelessly generate and transfer 32 bit digital codes using the radio frequency of 13.56 MHz. This result proved that the electrical fluctuations of printed TFTs and diodes on plastic foils should be controlled in the range of maximum 20% to properly operate 32 bit RFID tags.

In this paper a method of design and Implementation of RFID based control system for reducing standby power consumption at the power outlet is described. The system is composed of a RF controlled power outlet having relay and an active RFID tag communicating with the RF reader module controlling the relay. When the tag carried by human approaches to the RF reader the reader recognizes the tag and switch off the relay based on the RSSI level measurement. A low power packet prediction algorithm has been used to decrease the DC power consumption at both the tag and the RF reader. The result of experiment shows that successful operation of the relay control has been obtained while low power operation of the tag and the reader is achieved using above algorithm. Also setting the distance between the reader and the tag by controlling transmission power of the tag and adjusting the duty cycle of the packet waiting time when the reader is in idle state allows us to reduce DC power consumption at both the reader and the tag.

For tracing tag locations, a trajectories should be modeled and indexed in radio frequency identification (RFID) systems. The trajectory of a tag can be represented as a line that connects two spatiotemporal locations captured when the tag enters and leaves the vicinity of a reader. If a tag enters but does not leave a reader, its trajectory is represented only as a point captured at entry and we should extend the region of a query to find the tag that remains in a reader. In this paper, we propose an interval data model of tag's trajectory in order to solve the problem. For the interval data model. we propose a new index scheme called the IR-tree(Interval R-tree) and algorithms of insert and split for processing query efficiently. We also evaluate the performance of the proposed index scheme and compare it with the previous indexes.

In RFID system, Tag's Identification data is processed in host computer by application program. Example of application program is parking administration program, library state program etc.. Tag's ID that is recognized in reader is inputted to the Host computer. Application program of computer searches data in DB of computer such as Tag ID. After finding the same ID, host computer send to control command to driver H/W in accordance with application purpose. But, It need to confirm in long distance whether achievement process is acted normally. There will be the 2 methods, when we monitors the process in long distance. One is wired monitoring system, another is wireless monitoring system. Among wire method, internet communication network is useful. RFID system manufacture first in this treatise. RFID system Embody using EM4095 chip that is doing 125KHz by carrier wave. Tag's characteristic ID is sent in remote place through module that use W3100A chip. This system Manufacture, and data send-receive confirmed using simple application program. Reception confirm by result, and pictures show by whole system and each part. And a control program explained of each part.

An RFID system has been widely applied in many areas over the initial SCM application. In the literature enormous RFID applications in healthcare are documented to improve patient safety, patient/provider logistics, and the efficiency of collecting data. Based on the proposed 4-layered RFID system architecture, we introduce a case that implemented an UHF passive RFID-based tracking system in an outpatient clinic. Particularly, we propose a method to process RFID data that contains noise and missing reads. The proposed method for processing unreliable RFID data is capable to locate the tag accurately and provide additional business information. We finally conclude the paper with identifying obstacles and what is necessary to ensure system reliability.

In this paper, we propose Group Separation(GS) algorithm for RFID tag recognition. In GS algorithm, reader calculates tag ID by collision point, stores memory with the collision table. And reader classifies according to total number of tag ID's 1, requests each group. If tag comes into collision with the other tag, reader searches tag ID in collision table. As a result, we observes that transmitted data rate, the recognition time is decreased.

RFID/USN이 큰 이슈가 되면서 RFID 에 대한 각종 연구와 응용이 현재 활발히 진행 중이다. 유선 네트워크상에서의 보안은 지금까지의 연구와 개발로 신뢰적인 통신이 가능하다. 그러나 RFID는 Air Interface를 전송매체로 사용하기 때문에 유선의 상황보다 외부의 노출정도가 훨씬 크다. 따라서 외부의 공격에 쉽게 노출 될 수 있으며 이를 보완하기위해 Tag안에 ID를 직접 넣지 않고 DataBase에서만 ID를 관리하는 방식의 RFID 인증 프로토콜을 제안했다. 기존의 RFID 인중 프로토콜보다 Reader의 작업량을 줄였고, 태그로부터 정보를 탈취하여 복호화 한다 하더라도 ID가 없기 때문에 쓸모없는 정보가 된다.

In this paper, a navigation algorithm is proposed using RFID tags in indoor environments. Firstly, a stochastic sensor model of RFID is derived and the design factors including the maximum identifiable distance, the identification direction and the read success rate are obtained through experiments. The obstacle avoidance algorithm is developed with consideration of those factors for a variety of RFID antenna configurations and different indoor environments. The algorithm is tested by computer simulations and implemented on a mobile robot.

It is important issue how to evaluate the economic feasibility of computing factors in the real world when we build ubiquitous spaces. In this paper, we propose a simple model that can evaluate the economic feasibility of mobile RFID-based ubiquitous computing system which enables seamless communication between offline and online via embedded computing factors in the real world. To achieve this, we explore the meaning of mobile RFID system, the difference between our research and extant researches concerning the evaluation of economic feasibility in RFID system, and propose the so-called 'Tag-based Evaluation Model' (TEM) which is an evaluation model to access the economic feasibility of mobile RFID systems. We also analyze the TEM via simulation cases based on proposed model and discuss the future of TEM.

RFID (Radio Frequency IDentification) system is recognition technology which can maintain various object's information. Reliability of RFID tags is the most important factor in RFID system. In this paper, we proposed ALT (Accelerated Life Test) method for UHF RFID tags. Temperature and humidity were adopted as stress factors and the accelerated life tests were conducted in three different conditions. We performed failure analysis for identifying failure mechanism and statistical analysis of test data. In the statistical analysis, we employed Inverse Power law for relationship between tag's life and stress. Through the statistical analysis, we proposed acceleration factor for several levels of temperature-humidity. The reliability qualification test plans were also designed for the tag's target reliability.
