Abstract

This chapter presents the results of experimental research for the development of an innovative product designated as the software for the Simulation of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) Environments, or RFID-Env. This apparatus is designed for use by professionals in computer systems and plant engineering who are engaged in the research and development of RFID systems as applied to the management and operation of logistic supply chains. The RFID-Env makes it possible to simulate on computer screens a complete RFID environment by processing user data on the technical and physical characteristics of real or virtual RFID environments. Information output can include descriptions of the performance to be expected from a given configuration and detailed reports as to whether that particular configuration will succeed in reading all the RFID tags flowing through a defined system. In arriving at these results, the RFID-Env considers the anti-collision communication protocols utilized by the tags, the quantity of tags to be read in a given period, the temperature at the location, the distance between the tags and reader antennas, and the velocity of exposure of the tags to readers. The software required for these results is built into the RFID-Env and includes a library of communication protocols (ACPL, or Anti-Collision Protocol Library) covering the four RFID International Standard Organization (ISO) standards most frequently used (ISO 18000-6) in the market.
