The characteristics of radio frequency identification (RFID) systems introduce growing security and privacy concerns. RFID systems need security protocols to provide confidentiality, user privacy, mutual authentication and etc. Many security protocols for the RFID system have been presented. This paper analyze several of the newest RFID security protocols which proposed by Niu et al., Fu et al....

The number of radio frequency identification (RFID) applications in different industries increases continuously. But, there are few cases about application of RFID in hospitality industry. In this research, we study the application of RFID by a resort village. This case located at Kenting on the southern part of Taiwan. Since 2008, the resort village extends RFID application projects – Ubiquito...

This paper presents a state-of-the-art analysis on the methods suitable for vehicle indoor localization and exploiting RFID (Radio Frequency IDentification) technology. The survey describes three main categories of systems: (i) solutions only technology, (ii) sensor-fusion techniques combining data from systems proprioceptive sensors, (iii) combing with those other exteroceptive sensors in addi...

An RFID system can be considered as a wireless communication system because the reader device communicates with the transponder by using electromagnetic waves at radio frequencies. The performance of this communication link can be studied by determining the read range for backscatter RFID systems. The read range or the distance where the reader unit notices the tag depends on many factors. Freq...

At any time, over 1.4 million people worldwide are suffering from infections acquired in hospital. Approximate 380,000 to 450,000 preventable Adverse drug events (ADEs) occurring annually in the United States. Therefore, patient safety has become a serious global public health issue. The purpose of this paper attempts to improve medication safety and reduce ADEs using RFID technology. For impro...

Inventory shrinkage is a common problem in the management of returnable containers. RFID-based container tracking systems have been proposed as a possible solution. Benefits of RFID-based tracking of returnable transport items such as pallets, kegs and boxes are documented in several case studies, but have so far hardly been analyzed from a theoretical perspective. In this article, we analyze t...

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) has been playing more and more important roles in domains such as supply chain management, commodity retail and health custody. RFID data can support functions such as object location, object tracking and trajectory analysis. However, at some point, to deploy many RFID devices into a real application scenario would be very difficult. In this paper, we prese...

In this study, we explore the use of information for inventory decision in the healthcare organization (HO). We consider the scenario when the HO can make use of the information collected from some correlated products to enhance its inventory planning. Motivated by our real world observations that HOs adopt RFID and bar-coding system for information collection purpose, we examine the effectiven...

Cloud based RFID authentication is becoming a large area of interest among researchers and engineers these days. However, there is not much attention given to the RFID authentication concern. Most of the work done on this issue till now has its focus on RFID functionality without considering security and privacy. Classical RFID authentication schemes do not meet the security and privacy require...

The most important research in the world in these days, research that looking at the internet of thing's (IoT) topics and their applications. Most of these applications depend on RFID system, which includes RFID readers and tags. The important issues in RFID system or network are how we can reduce anti-collision between readers to identify and read tags data. In these paper, we suggest an Impro...
