Product Description
Are you an engineer or manager working on the development and implementation of RFID technology? If so, this book is for you. Covering both passive and active RFID systems, the challenges to RFID implementation are addressed using specific industry research examples and common integration issues. Key topics include RF tag performance optimization, evaluation methodologies for RFID and Real-Time-Location Systems (RTLS) and sensors, EPC network simulation, RFID in the retail supply chain, and applications in product lifecycle management, anti-counterfeiting and cold chain management. The book brings together insights from world's leading research laboratories in the field, including the Auto-ID Labs at MIT, successor to the Auto-ID Center which developed the Electronic Product Code scheme which is set to become the global standard for product identification.MIT Auto-ID Labs's suite of Open Source code and tools for RFID implementation is available at www.cambridge.org/9780521880930.

Product Reviews:
  later rather than sooner ? ( southlandplace )
The technology developments described in the text are formidable and impressive. RFID is indeed getting accepted in several places. But the problem is that in spite of technological gains, marketplace deployment has proved slower than expected. Books like this have been coming out in the last 4 years. Yet the actual prices of RFID components does not seem to have fallen as fast as initially projected.

How much longer do we have to wait for broad-based RFID?
