“…StrongARM, ESIC and Xscale are the three low-power embedded microprocessor which prototype the design Also an Actel Fusion, Xilinx Coolrunner II and direct ASIC implementation are the three hardware controller which are considered. [1] A paper by Jianping Wang Huiyun Li and Fengqi Yu in 2007 presented the design of RDIF tag based on a new structure as well as in this design, they focuses on the security issue and a new technique was proposed based on hash-lock structure. This makes the tag more secure than the non-security based tags.…”

“…However, passive tags require less maintenance than active tags. [1] Basically, the design of the RFID tag consists of two partsanalog front end and digital back end. The analog front end is responsible for the modulation and demodulation of the and the digital back end is responsible for the data processing such as instruction decoding and storage usually with the ROM.…”

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) now-a-days, widely using technology in the field of auto-identification of objects.The system consists of two basic blocks-tag and a reader. The tag is attached to the object to be identified and it transmits the identification number and other information to the reader. The reader after receiving the identification number or any other information processed it with the server. The major task performed in RFID system is done by the tag because it is attached to the distant object and also working in harsh environment. Thus the design of the RFID tag is the key issue of the overall system. Efficient performance and power optimization of the tag is required because tag is placed at a non contact distance from the reader so regular maintenance of tag is not possible. Many design of the tag have been proposed over many years which concerns performance, power optimization and security issues. In this paper a brief overview of the RFID tag design is discussed along with the comparative study of different design of the tag.

“…The receiver, which is kept active to react to an inquiry from the interrogator, therefore determines the shelf life of an active RFID tag. To further reduce the power of the RFID tag receiver two main technologies have been proposed: (1) a passive transceiver or burst switch allowing the tag to remain in a sleep mode until activated with RF energy; and (2) a smart buffer, which allows the controller to remain asleep while an incoming packet is buffered [ 18 ]. Use of RFID as the wake-up radio channel has been shown to provide a viable solution due to the low cost and ready off-the-shelf availability of RFID [ 19 ].…”

Radio frequency identification (RFID) tags are small electronic devices working in the radio frequency range. They use wireless radio communications to automatically identify objects or people without the need for line-of-sight or contact, and are widely used in inventory tracking, object location, environmental monitoring. This paper presents a design of a covert RFID tag network for target discovery and target information routing. In the design, a static or very slowly moving target in the field of RFID tags transmits a distinct pseudo-noise signal, and the RFID tags in the network collect the target information and route it to the command center. A map of each RFID tag’s location is saved at command center, which can determine where a RFID tag is located based on each RFID tag’s ID. We propose the target information collection method with target association and clustering, and we also propose the information routing algorithm within the RFID tag network. The design and operation of the proposed algorithms are illustrated through examples. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the design.

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is a ubiquitous technology with a wide variety of uses in several different environments and application domains. The EPCGlobal Class 1 Generation 2, or "Gen 2" specification has recently received significant attention both in notoriety and application. However, while considered a relatively recent technology, the subject of RFID has a long history in intellectual property (IP) patents, which can be traced in the United States back to at least 1930. This paper describes three important points in the development of in RFID related to IP beginning with foundational patents in Electronic Article Surveillance (EAS) and how this technology has become the foundation for current RFID efforts. The second important turning point relates to difficulties faced by ubiquitous application of a technology without involving IP using the Gen 2 specification as an example. Finally, a patent application in process is presented that allows the automated generation of new RFID protocols. This final IP has the potential to encompass many more specific patents related to RFID communication protocols and provide a new emphasis on how IP is regarded for RFID.
