• RFID Tag Comparison Guide: Understanding Broadband Technology
  Published August 2010

  As RFID technology matures, users are faced with an increasing array of options for unlocking new business benefits and value. Ten years ago, RFID solutions were limited by short read distances and high costs, but the advent of passive UHF RFID and the EPC Class 1 Gen 2 protocol shifted the paradigm, opening up portal-based solutions and global interoperability. In this white paper, Omni-ID discusses how passive UHF enables real-world solutions for applications requiring tags to work on and around metal, and also explores the introduction of a global on-metal passive UHF RFID tag.

• The Intelleflex XC3 Technology Platform: An Implementation of the Draft ISO Class 3 Standard
  Published May 2010

  Intelleflex's new XC3 technology platform consists of chips, tags, reader modules, fixed interrogators and mobile readers. This white paper explores the technology's benefits, and also offers a technical discussion of the recently approved draft ISO 18000-6C BAP Class 3 standard on which it is based.

• Integrating a Company Logo Into a Tag Antenna Design in RFID Applications
  Published February 2010

  Tatung University's Chi-Fang Huang, Yueh-Ching Lin and Ming-Fu Kuo present a design idea for how a company's logo can be incorporated into an RFID tag antenna, in order to protect the intellectual property (IP) of that firm's tag antenna design. This white paper discusses both antenna design simulation and tag performance evaluation. (5 pages)

• Cross-Docking: Addressing the Technology Gap to Improve Visibility
  Published January 2010

  Cross-docking can help company executives reduce inventory costs and trim delivery times. Traditional enterprise resource planning (ERP) technology, however, does not offer the visibility and accountability to optimize cross-docking efficiency. TAKE Supply Chain's Jason Howton discusses the technology requirements of a next-generation cross-docking solution. (6 pages)
