1.0 Introduction

In this age of rapid technological advancement, wireless communication is emerging as one

of the more promising and useful forms of data transfer. It is getting more and more difficult to finda person who has never talked on a cell phone, listened to the radio, or even logged onto wireless

internet. And one new technology that is on its way to becoming another common, everyday use of

RF communication is Radio Frequency Identification (RFID). This is a new technology only about

ten years old, and it has drawn quite an interest to those who need anything from a quick inventory

count to instant price checks. Similar to bar codes, but much more powerful, RFID is a system of

storing information on a tag and having the ability to read it from distances of up to forty feet. This

year, we propose to develop our own RFID system. We are planning to build an RFID Door Lock

System. This project will use the ability of an RFID tag to signal a door to unlock. When one of

these tags gets close enough to communicate with the antenna, the reader will react and unlock the

door if the tag contains the correct information. This system will also have the ability to accept new

tags into the system, and remove them.

2 .0 Objective of The Project

A door lock system was designed and developed with an objective to make a system that has

dual main functions compared to the other products in the current market which are, the system does

not only automatically open and close the door for the authorized user but it also can be like a

punch-card system where it has the capability to link the system to the database for a record. The

system consists of passive reader and door lock controller. It is an easy system to be handled and

installed. So with this technology, the user does not need to touch the passive tag to the receiver or

reader for the authorization to check in.

3 .0 Literature review

Our project is basically based from how people entering doors and gates with several ways. On top

of that, this project also based on security that is being used in many places. These are the conditions

that inspired us to make the RFID Door Lock System:

3.1 H otels Room Door Lock System

Instead of using keys, hotels room use a card that called swipe card that need the

user to punch the card into the reader at the door, so the reader will need to recognize the

card weather the card is authorized or not. If its authorized, the door will automatically open.

3.2 SmartTag

Built on a non-stop Electronic Toll Collection (ETC) philosophy, SmartTAGincorporated infra-red communication that communicated with infra-red transceivers

mounted at the ceilings of toll plazas to allow vehicle drivers to drive through SmartTAG

dedicated lanes and pay toll without stopping. It is designed to process up to 1,200 vehicles

per hour.

3.3 RFID on UT HM s Convocation

Every student in the convocation were clip by RFID card, which contain with their

IDs. So when they passed the RFID reader on the stage, the server will check the database to

see if the user is identified. If so, the server will instruct the microprocessor to display the

users identification.

4.0 Problem Statement

Before we decide to do this RFID Door Lock System project, we saw that most of our

important rooms in KKTM Beranang (theatrettes, lecturer room, office etc) have a loose security

system. For us, this area must be protectively secure from any possibilities of danger. So, in order to

overcome this matter, we have decided to build the RFID Door Lock System. In this project, we

should be able to solve a lots of problem and some of the problems are:

i. Burglary in those important rooms.

ii. Carrying a bundle of keys.

iii. Wasting time by searching for the right door key.

5 .0 M ethodology

The RFID Door Lock System will consist of passive RFID tags, an antenna, a RFID reader

module, a microcontroller, and an electronic door lock. The reader module continuously scans for a

tag. When a tag comes within reading distance of the antenna, it detects an activation signal and

wakes up. The information on the chip is then transmitted through the antenna back to the reader module. The reader module processes the information and then sends it to the microcontroller. Once

the microcontroller receives the data, it is compared to a list of valid Identifications (IDs). If the ID

is confirmed to be valid, the data associated with the ID is logged into memory with the current

timestamp, and the microcontroller sends a signal to unlock the door. The system will also have a

maintenance mode. In this mode, tag IDs can be added or removed from the system and the activity

log, containing IDs and timestamps, can be transmitted to an external computer.

7.0 Expected Results

In the future, we are expecting RFID Door Lock System will upgrade the security system inKKTM Beranang. We also hope that RFID Door Lock System can prevent the following problems in

KKTM Beranang:

i. P reventing burglary.

ii. No need to bring a lot of keys.

iii. Saving a lot of time from searching for the right key.

8 .0 Conclusion

RFID technology has many exciting uses in both home and office environments. Our

projects goal is to create a secure solution that can be used to increase security and peace of mind in

both. We hope to use our abilities and understanding of the Data Transmission and other engineering

design concepts to make this project manifest. With this project, we have real world problem that

requires the understanding and integration of microcontrollers, web servers, RFIDs, hardware, and

serial communications. With both electrical and electronic engineerings theory, we feel as though

this project is best suited to require the utilization of all group members skills gained from the

classroom, labs, and experience in industry.
