ABCs of RFID: Understanding and Using Radio Frequency Identification
Overview
Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) is one of the fastest growing and most beneficial technologies being adopted by businesses today. Adoption of this Automatic Data-Collection (ADC) technology has recently been fueled by the establishment of key standards, retailer and government mandates, improved technology performance and falling implementation costs.
RFID offers great value for many industries and applications. However, misperceptions about what RFID is and what it can do pose obstacles that discourage some organizations from taking advantage of the technology.
This white paper provides an overview of RFID technology and capabilities, describes the common frequencies and technologies used in business applications, identifies major standards, and introduces ways to take advantage of RFID to improve convenience, accuracy, safety and security.
