About RFID Journal

Radio frequency identification (RFID) is being adopted in a wide variety of industries, including aircraft manufacturing, consumer electronics, consumer packaged goods, defense, homeland security and retail. The technology is being employed not only for tracking goods in supply chains, but also to reduce the counterfeiting of pharmaceuticals and other high-end products, track baggage in airports and monitor medical supplies in hospitals, as well as in payment systems. Eventually, virtually every company on Earth will be required to utilize RFID in one way or another, in order to remain competitive in the global market.
