RFID Basics for Retailers

Overview Despite the promise that the technology holds, limitations with the initial RFID implementations have made the experiences to-date mixed. The recently ratified EPCglobal UHF Generation 2 standard and the RFID standards work being done by ISO are key to improving this experience and progressing RFID into the mainstream. With global RFID standards coming into place, the key technology providers are now spending the millions and millions of dollars necessary to gain the system performance increases, reliability and cost reductions that the market needs. Dependable technology, emerging standards plus increasing business pressures are driving the rapid adoption of RFID. That is why it is important to have up-to-date information about RFID performance, integration capabilities and standards.
