This paper proposes a novel approach to optimize the tag detection, coverage problem and power allocation issues of the RFID reader and tags. We have investigated the effects of variable localization of RFID tags from reader and power loss, inefficiency and distance constraints caused due to equal power allocations to the tags. As an improvement to the situation, implementation of adaptive algo...

Smart items technologies, like RFID and sensor networks, are the next big step in business process automation. We are currently developing a dedicated Smart Items Infrastructure (SII) that supports the development and deployment of distributed ubiquitous computing applications. Decomposing these applications into individual services and deploying them at different devices poses new technical ch...

For e-learning systems to be successful, proper understanding of the learner is crucial. This can be done with the use of learners’ profiles. However, there is a need for the availability of such information for mobile learning environments to make it available when the learner roams between different spaces. This paper investigates the application of RFID technologies for this use. We suggest ...

Providing location information while people move through a indoor environment is fundamental to smart environments. While many works address this problem, which is often referred to as tracking, the complex radio propagation and the need smart and unobtrusive localization system still represent challenges to current approaches. We investigate through simulations the applicability of tracking a ...

This paper investigates the possibility of introducing subcutaneous microchip radio frequency identification device (RFID) as a substitute for personal documents and credit cards. Microchips are used for many years for different purposes in production and sale, medicine and also to identify some domestic animals. In the study we were interested in whether people in Slovenia would be willing to ...

In this paper RFID technology is used in payment system in Toll Plaza. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is a wireless technology, that is increasingly popular for smartphone applications including smart payments and device pairing whose effective communication range is only within a few millimeters. The payment system is done by just “tap and go”. It consists of a reader attached in the to...

Moveable asset management is still not appropriately supported by existing IT systems. Items are not managed individually, information about location, status and usage is not accurate or lacking. This can cause delays in industrial operations, inefficient use or excess inventory of costly assets. We propose RFID technology as the key to link the necessary data directly with the physical assets....

taking advantage of the new technology, supply chain has already created a chain of cooperation among its own companies, and, in a larger scale, within a universal environment. superior to these technologies is rfid which is an abbreviation for radio frequency identification. rfid is one of the most advanced technologies in the contemporary world. perishable products and hose with short time ex...

In this paper, tagging techniques are employed to identify monitored inhabitants in smart environments. The aim of the work is to recognize the presence of the tagged inhabitants in different areas of the environment. RSSI based localizing agents are used in separate areas to measure the distance of the tagged persons from the reader agents. Then a clustering method is applied to the readings f...

In this paper, we explore the possibility of generating user profiles of fashion preferences from information captured by RFID technology. Proposing a design of a smart wardrobe, we investigate the appropriateness of the technology as an identification tool of real objects and to aid in detecting and tracking real objects movements. We then present a model of user fashion profile, which is gene...
