Radio Frequency Identification Radio Frequency Identification (RFID)(RFID)
• Short for radio frequency identification, a technology similar in theory to bar code identification.
• With RFID, the electromagnetic or electrostatic coupling in the RF portion of the electromagnetic spectrum is used to transmit signals.
• An RFID system consists of an antenna and a transceiver, which read the radio frequency and transfer the information to a processing device, and a transponder, or tag, which is an integrated circuit containing the RF circuitry and information to be transmitted.
• Used for inventory management, IT asset tracking, race timing, passports, mobile payments, transportation and logistics, animal identification, museums, libraries etc.
Differences between RFID and Differences between RFID and barcodebarcode
• It has for each individual product a unique number, whereas barcode labels have the same serial number for all identical items.
• More than one RFID tag can be read at
a time and can be read from quite long distance from the reader, whereas barcodes can be read just one time for each item and have a low reading distance from the reader.
• Barcodes have fixed numbers and each figure does not necessarily write to the computer when scanned if the computer loses this figure. Silicon chips make the RFID system much more flexible to be re-programmed when necessary
Benefits of RFIDBenefits of RFID
• For instance, Wal-Mart stores manage to save $600 million annually by applying an RFID system.
• A recent study at Wal-Mart stores shows that the RFID system is more successful in replenishing out-of-stocks by 63% than stores without RFID . Furthermore, it is emphases the fact that there was a reduction in out-of-stock by 16 percent in this period. Also, the study shows important profit on investment by increasing the sales made.
• Increased focus on selling.
• It can reduce the waiting time of the shoppers inside a shopping queue and allow goods to be checked immediately and automatically
Benefits of RFIDBenefits of RFID
• RFID tags can also be used to fight counterfeiting (Traditional production devices such as holograms and chemical tags are now being copied by counterfeiters.). The counterfeiting business makes up 5-7% of world trade and costs retailers more than 500 billion Euros a year. GlaxoSmith, is tagging some drugs like Trizivir to reduce fraud
• The smart tags allow retailers to monitor products’ availability on the retail shelf especially during high selling seasons/perishable products. Because the retail shelf space is limited, RFID tags assist the retailers by enabling smart inventory management between the retail shelf and backroom stock
• In addition, RFID tags are useful for retailers with smart shelves that have inbuilt RFID scanners to organize the products that are placed on the wrong shelf as well as satisfy customers demand
RFID- ChallengesRFID- Challenges
• The cost of tags can be a barrier to retailers in adopting RFID technology, particularly at the individual item level but the cost are coming down . For example, in 2000, the price of tags cost from $1 to $100 based on the type of the tag, but in 2006 they cost from 20 cents to $20
• Lack of internationally agreed RFID standards-However, in June 2004 EPC global developed agreed protocols on the type of tag that concentrated on the read rate and the frequency of tags.
• Privacy concerns from civil liberties groups - RFID could be used to allow retailers to gather information from customers. This kind of information allows the retailers to control the consumers’ behaviour
• A security concern : For example, when the RFID tag is designed to read at a distance of one foot, attackers have the ability to read this signal in the region of 100 feet with the use of this special equipment. Solution for this is in attempting to kill the tag. A simple solution can be making a small change in the information that is on the tag.
• Wrong billing of some previously purchased item

Ways to prevent
• Personal Monitoring by Security Personnel
• Cameras to monitor
• Use of source tagging –Small anti-theft labels are hidden inside a product or packaging by manufacturer
Shrinkage Prevention- RFIDShrinkage Prevention- RFID• RFID provides improvement of security.
The use of RFID tag to expensive items can provide an outlet with increased security and can drastically reduce shrinkage through theft .
• It also helps to do a quick and exact inventory account for the items and this significantly reduces the time and labor costs associated with inventory
• RFID tags can alert security guards if a stock has been suddenly removed by shoplifters
• Furthermore, security can be enhanced through RFID readers that automatically charge items in a customer trolley to a credit or debit card, thus reducing theft when items are concealed.
