RFID TECHNOLOGY AS A PART OF MONITORING SYSTEMS

Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) technologies are getting more popular and being implemented as a solution for many relevant problems in information technology purposing low-costed, secure, and controlled remotely systems. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) system is used as a type of IoT technology, which has three basic parts: tags, reader and system that manages tag identification (ID) number and its real time location. RFID systems are used in financial institutions, healthcare industry, mobile phones, cars, supply chain management, smart retails, smart house, object localization, security systems and various types of applications for positioning, managing people, assets, and inventory. This paper discusses performances of RFID technologies that use passive tags. Role of RFID technologies in monitoring systems and system architecture are reviewed and compared. Significance of RFID technologies and challenges are also considered for future works.
