It is one of the biggest complaints about the shopping experience. Soon, these lines could
disappear when the bar code will get replaced by smart labels (RFID) tags. RFID is similar to
barcoding in that data from a tag or label are captured by a device that stores the data in a
database. RFID tags are intelligent bar codes that can talk to a networked system to track every
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is a technology that uses radio waves to automatically
identify objects, animals, and people. It is the wireless non-contact technology that uses radio
frequency waves to transfer data. Tagging items with RFID tags allows users to automatically
Though, this is not a new technology and even older than Barcode. RFID has come a long way
from its first application of identifying airplanes as friend or foe in World War II, 1970s.
Within the Electromagnetic Spectrum, there are three primary frequency ranges used for RFID
RFID systems can be susceptible to certain materials and environmental factors that can cause
diminished read ranges and affect overall system accuracy. Metal and liquids are the two most
common sources of interference for RFID applications, but they can be mitigated with the proper

RFID System:
A RFID system consists of a tag, which is made up of a microchip with an antenna, and reader
with an antenna. The reader sends out electromagnetic waves. The tag antenna is tuned to
receive these waves. While each system will vary in terms of device types and complexity, every

The simplest system can be comprised of a mobile handheld RFID reader (with an integrated
antenna) and RFID tags, while more complex systems are designed using multi-port readers,
additional functionality devices (e.g. stack lights), multiple antennas and cables, RFID tags, and
RFID Tag:
RFID tags have similar applications to barcodes, they are far more advanced. An RFID tag in its
most simplistic form is comprised of two parts – an antenna for transmitting and receiving
signals, and an RFID chip (or integrated circuit, IC) which stores the tag’s ID and other
information. RFID tags are affixed to items in order to track them using an RFID reader and
antenna. Depending on the application, RFID tags & cards can cost less than Rs.5 or up to

RFID Reader:
An RFID reader is the brain of the RFID system and is necessary for any system to function.
Readers, also called interrogators, are devices that transmit and receive radio waves in order to
communicate with RFID tags. RFID readers are typically divided into two distinct types – Fixed
RFID Readers and Mobile RFID Readers. Fixed readers stay in one location and are typically
An integrated RFID reader is a reader with a built-in antenna that typically includes one
additional antenna port for the connection of an optional external antenna as well. Integrated
readers are usually aesthetically pleasing and designed to be used for indoor applications

RFID Controllers:
The brains of any RFID system are RFID controllers. Controllers are used to network multiple
RFID interrogators combined and to process the information centrally. In any network the
controller should be an application software or workstation running data base. Controller uses
the information gathered by the interrogators when new inventory is needed in retail application
RFID Applications:
What sets a potential RFID application apart from applications that can use other types of
systems is the need to uniquely identify individual items quickly and more efficiently where
traditional systems fall short. Below are a few applications that are successfully using RFID
technology.

New applications for RFID technology are constantly emerging to solve an age old problems
across industries. In the retail industry, every store has inventory which may range into the
thousands, even hundreds of thousands of pieces and dollars. Jewellery stores have millions of
dollars invested in thousands of earrings, necklaces, and bracelets. With RFID jewellery tags,
