• A system consisting a tag, antenna and a
processor capable of wirelessly communication
data over radio waves

RFID - Basics
Superior capabilities to barcode:
• Non Line of Sight
• Hi-speed, multiple reads
• Can read and write to tags
• Unit specific ID

Classification
• Passive tags• Transponder’s energy is supplied by the reader through the EM signal
• € 0.10 – 10
• Low data capacity (128 bits - 32kb)
• Limited rage
• Long Life
• Semi-passive tags• The readers supplies only the energy that the transponder needs for its
communication, the remaining part of the transponder have their own energy supply
• Active• Both, reader and transponder have their own
energy supply
• €10 - 100
• Long Range (up to 300 m)
• Limited life (few months,few years)

Classification – Communication method
• Capacitive couplingA high-frequency electrical field is used to transfer energy and data
• Inductive couplingA high-frequency magnetic field is
used to transfer energy and data
• BackscatterElectromagnetic waves are used to transmit
energy and data to the transponders;
backscattering (cf. radar technology:
reflection of energy by the transponder) is
used to transmit responses to the reader

RFID vs Barcode
• Low cost
• Broad Utilization
• Human Readable
• Integrated in printed material
• Data transfer requires line of sight
• Data storage is limited
• Environmentally sensitive
• No line of sight
• Large memory – data moves with
product / asset
• Dynamic data reads
• Higher costs
• Read sensitive to product attributes
(metal, H2O)
• Limited adoption

Wat is IoT?
“The Internet of Things (IoT) is the
network of physical objects,
devices, vehicles, buildings and
other items which are embedded
with electronics, software, sensors,
and network connectivity, which
enables these objects to collect and
exchange data.”
--"Internet of Things Global Standards Initiative - ITU“

RFID to Near Field Communication
• NFC was developed in 2002
• By NXP Semiconductors and Sony
• NFC is based on the proprietary contactless smartcard systems
• NXP Mifare (ISO/IEC 14443 Type A)
• Sony FeliCa
• NFC is compatible to proximity coupling systems
• Vicinity coupling system may co-exist using the same RF but are not
part of the NFC technology)
• NFC is compatible to existing contactless smartcard infrastructure
• Payment, ticketing & access control systems
• Integration of contactless payment, ticket & access control into
mobile phone

Near Field Communication
• Contactless communication technology
• Distance up to 10 centimeters
• Carrier Freq. : 13.56 MHz
• Interface standardized in ECMA and ISO/IEC• ECMA-340 = ISO/IEC 18092 = NFC Interface and Protocol (NFCIP-1)
• ECMA-352 = ISO/IEC 21481 = NFC Interface and Protocol-2 (NFCIP-2)
• Further standards for
• Interface & protocol test methods
• NFC over a wired interface
• Secured communication over NFC
• Why standardized in both ECMA & ISO?
• Standardized in process in ECMA (industry driven) is fast
• Adoption of ECMA standards by ISO is fast
Shorter standardization process

Touch a Go Philosophy
• Touching an object or NFC device
automatically triggers an action
• Technology should disappear for the
user
• Interaction should be
• Reliable
• Simple
• Instant
• Effective
