RFID Solutions
Radio-frequency identification (RFID) is an automatic
identification method, relying on storing and remotely retrieving
data using devices called RFID tags or transponders. An
RFID tag is an object that can be attached to or incorporated
into a product, animal, or person for the purpose of identification
using radio waves. Chip-based RFID tags contain silicon
chips and antennas. Passive tags require no internal power
source, whereas active tags require a power source.
EPC Gen2
EPC Gen2 is short for EPCglobal UHF Class 1 Generation
2. EPCglobal (a joint venture between GS1 and GS1 US) is
working on international standards for the use of RFID and
the EPC in the identification of any item in the supply
chain for companies worldwide.
One of the missions of EPCglobal was to simplify the Babel
of protocols prevalent in the RFID world in the 1990's.
Two tag air interfaces (the protocol for exchanging information
between a tag and a reader) were defined (but not ratified)
by EPCglobal prior to 2003. These protocols, commonly known
as Class 0 and Class 1, saw significant commercial implementation
in 2002-2005.
In 2004 the Hardware Action Group created a new protocol,
the Class 1 Generation 2 interface, which addressed a number
of problems that had been experienced with Class 0 and Class
1 tags. The EPC Gen2 standard was approved in December 2004,
and is likely to form the backbone of RFID tag standards
moving forward. This was approved after a contention from
Intermec that the standard may infringe a number of their
RFID related patents. It was decided that the standard itself
did not infringe their patents, but it may be necessary
to pay royalties to Intermec if the tag were to be read
in a particular manner. The EPC Gen2 standard was adopted
with minor modifications as ISO 18000-6C in 2006.
