This paper discusses the relevance and potential impact of both RFID and reverse engineering of RFID technology, followed by a discussion of common protocols and internals of RFID technology. The focus of the paper is on providing an overview of the different approaches to reverse engineering RFID technology and possible countermeasures that could limit the potential of such reverse engineering...

After exploring industrial and consumer applications of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) and reviewing the state-of-theart and development in RFID technology, the paper put forward RFID smart parts. A currently operative smart part based manufacturing system is described which uses RFID as the key technology. The role of them in the emerging Wireless Internet Manufacturing field is highlig...

The use of radio frequency identification (RFID) technology is expanding rapidly in numerous applications such as logistics, supply chain management, transportation, healthcare and aviation. Due to the variety of the current applications, typical RFID systems use application specific hardware and proprietary protocols. These systems generally have long design times, no tolerance to changes in a...

APPLICATIONS OF AUTOIDENTIfication technologies such as radio frequency identification (RFID) in everyday life include security access cards, electronic toll collection, and antitheft clips in retail clothing. RFID applications in health care have received increasing attention because of the potentially positive effect on patient safety and also on tracking and tracing of medical equipment and ...

CONTEXT Health care applications of autoidentification technologies, such as radio frequency identification (RFID), have been proposed to improve patient safety and also the tracking and tracing of medical equipment. However, electromagnetic interference (EMI) by RFID on medical devices has never been reported. OBJECTIVE To assess and classify incidents of EMI by RFID on critical care equipme...

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is a rapidly developing technology which uses RF signals for automatic identification of objects. RFID system generally consists of three components: 1) A small electronic data carrying device called a transponder or tag that is attached to the item to be identified, 2) A reader that communicates with the tag using radio frequency signals, 3) A host data pr...

The presented paper demonstrates how metamaterials with their unique properties and structures derived from metamaterials can offer solutions to overcome technical limitations of passive and chipless wireless sensor and RFID concepts. Basically, the metamaterial approach allows for miniaturization, higher sensitivity, and an extreme geometric flexibility. Miniaturization is certainly important ...
