The New RFID Standard in Europe
The new ETSI standard governing the use of RFID readers in the UHF spectrum should meet the needs of most end users.
Separating Wheat from Chaff
Companies that deploy RFID systems will need to use "complex event processing" to identify meaningful information from the stream of data RFID readers will provide.
Physics Can Solve Your RFID Puzzle
Some say that getting RFID reader and tags to communicate is a dark art, but here's how you can apply science to make your systems work.
RFID and Consumer Demand
By tagging people who agree to allow their shopping habits to be tracked anonymously, retailers could gain unparalleled insights into consumer behavior.
Why UHF RFID Systems Won’t Scale
Proposed ISO and EPC standards for UHF RFID systems don’t allow for many readers to operate simultaneously in one location, which will dramatically reduce the effectiveness of any large-scale implementation.
Planning for RFID Data
As companies move from piloting to deploying RFID technology, they need to be prepared to deal with a variety of data management issues.
Europe Needs New RFID Regulations
Proposed changes to ETSI regulations surrounding the use of RFID systems won't enable European companies to use UHF systems for supply chain management.
Making RFID Work
End users need enterprise application vendors to step up and provide ways to take advantage of RFID data without adding complexity and cost to their IT infrastructure.
RFID Startups Hold Promise
The next generation of RFID startups will come to market with solutions to many of the problems early adopters are wrestling with today.
