Using RFID Yoking Proof to Design A Supply-Chain Applications for Customs Check

There are currently numerous practical applications to improve the effectiveness of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) Systems. RFID provides an efficient identification for shipping and receiving goods. In warehouse management, RFID mechanisms can be used to check whether large quantities of goods are presented within a supply-chain system. In a supermarket, product information can be acquired without asking the clerks, one by one. The above applications are limited with regard to authentication between a single tag and server, while other applications focus on authenticating the relationships among the tags. In this paper, we use a yoking proof mechanism conforming to EPCglobal Class 1 Generation 2 Standards to improve the customs container check. Our scheme can also defend against known attacks and greatly enhance security.
