RFID and the Internet of Things
herausgegeben von Harvé Chabanne, Pascal Urien und Jean-Ferdinand SusiniRFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technology allows forautomatic identification of information contained in a tag byscanning and interrogation using radio frequency (RF) waves.
An RFID tag contains an antenna and a microchip that allows it totransmit and receive. This technology is a possible alternative tothe use of barcodes, which are frequently inadequate in the face ofrapid growth in the scale and complexity of just-in-time inventoryrequirements, regional and international trade, and emerging newmethods of trade based on it. Use of RFID tags will likelyeventually become as widespread as barcodes today.
This book describes the technologies used for implementation ofRFID: from hardware, communication protocols, cryptography, toapplications (including electronic product codes, or EPC) andmiddleware.
The five parts of this book will provide the reader with a detaileddescription of all the elements that make up a RFID system today, including hot topics such as the privacy concerns, and the Internetof Things.
