10 RFID Operational=Management Requirements, Including RFID
Implementations
While the initial uptake of RFID was slower than expected, the evolution of RFID systems
since 2005 has, in fact, been quite remarkable due to
. Successful pilot studies by industry groups, coordinated by EPCglobal, typically
focused on transport, packaging, and warehousing applications (e.g., in Australia).
. Recognition that the RFID readers produced for high volume, online applications
(e.g., in 2005) were unable to provide the speeds or reliability required by industry
. Pioneering research in Australia into new protocols for read=write at high speed
(refer Magellan Web site: www.magtech.com.au)
. Intensive marketing of Magellan??™s technology by system integrators and by companies
providing industry-speci?¬?c software services (e.g., gaming industry)
. Rapid development methodologies for novel RFID tags using new organic substrates
appropriate to niche requirements and application-speci?¬?c readers, such as
the Magellan tray reader for tracking commercial ?¬?les=folders
. Growing range of security applications, typically involving smartcards with integrated
RFID capabilities, which may include encrypted data
. Novel RFID application research, supported by government grants (e.g., at Hong
Kong Polytechnic University)
To fully appreciate the scope and complexity of current RFID technology, the rapid
advances made by Magellan using phase jitter modulation (PJM) is worth emphasizing.
