Function of RFID Identification systems in production and logistics Industrial Engineering Department University of Parma - Italy
Elements of a RFID system A RFID system is composed of 2 elements: 1. the transponder (tag) which consists of a coupling element (antenna) to the reader and a microchip (IC) with read/write non-volatile memory (EEPROM) § attached or integrated on the object that has to be identified 2. the reader which contains of a RF-module, a controlling unit and a coupling element (antenna) to the transponder § read/write functions are available energy reader / Chip antenna antenna writer (IC) data local interface (LAN, 232, …) computer / air interface application FUNCTION OF RFID TECHNOLOGY 3
Principle of RFID RFID offers an easy, flexible and reliable identification, tracing and controlling of objects and persons with the help of information technology. 1. tagging 2. reading/writing 3. IT system Objects and persons that The reader collects The reader is able to use have to be identified are information of the tag. collected information attached with a tag. With the use of a writing autonomous or to give it unit new information can to an IT system. be stored in the memory of the tag. Page 4 FUNCTION OF RFID TECHNOLOGY 4
