Development of A Radio Frequency Identification System for The Manufacturing Packing Process Via The DMAIC Approach

Quality has long been a critical metric for determining a company's competitiveness in the business world. The use of tools, methods, and concepts to improve and regulate product quality has been widespread. The purpose of this research is to solve the missing accessories issue that occurs during the packing process by using the Lean Six Sigma tool DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control). As part of the Lean Six Sigma quality effort, the DMAIC technique is frequently defined as a problem-solving methodology and a data-driven quality strategy. The actual root cause for these missing accessories is the lack of a proper validation process during the packing process. A brainstorming session was held to develop solutions to this problem, and one suggestion was to employ the radio frequency identification (RFID) validation system. This new implementation was set up during the kitting process by pasting RFID labels for all accessories. These accessories were validated back during the packing process to ensure no missing accessories after the operator sealed the carton box. After implementing the RFID system, the company managed to reduce the cost of manpower and parts that needed to be replaced in case of missing data. It also improves the efficiency of the business, as the addition of a validation RFID system avoids mistakes by detecting missing accessories before the product is delivered to the customer.

Comprehensive Review on Multiresonator-Based Chipless RFID Tag

This study reviews the multi-resonator-based chipless radio frequency identification technology. Radiofrequency (RF) waves are used in a wireless data collecting technique called radio frequency identification or simply RFID to automatically identify things. RFID is a promising technology that enables the identification and tracking of objects. Because of its benefits, including cheaper cost, smaller size, and higher security, chipless Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology has become more and more attractive as a potential alternative to traditional RFID technology. Chipless RFID labels are minimal expense labels since they are not outfitted with ASIC. RFID transmits data between the RFID transponder, a device that carries data, and the interrogator using radio frequency (RF) waves. The system is completely passive and does not require any kind of outside power source to run. The major advantage of spectral signature-based chipless RFID is that it can encode data in both magnitude and phase. A transponder's essential parts are its transmitter, receiver, and multi-resonators. As a result, this article will evaluate different multi-resonator types, explore numerous chipless RFID applications, and discuss the basic operation of an RFID system. Additionally, this research studies the various coding systems because information coding is an essential part of this technology.

Security systems that are part of a home, in particular, may still rely on manual locking, i.e. using standard locks as most people do. However, as technology advances, the application of microcontrollers to security systems can now be realized through the use of electronic devices as an alternative to traditional key security systems. This automatic door security system is designed to cover the inefficiencies of traditional door security systems which still use physical keys with dimensions that are still quite large and also require a longer time to open the door. Since RFID is a new technology along with the advancement of integrated circuit technology, it is certain that RFID can be used in various fields. The purpose of this research is to make it easier to access the door automatically by attaching an ID card to an RFID reader making it easy to open the door. Utilizing electromagnetic technology, users can use RFID as a user ID. Research and development is the research method used. Using Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) as a carrier for radio frequency wave data, the Arduino application creates a security system for this automatic door. This security system will be received by the recipient of the RFID Label or Tag known as a transponder, whose function is similar to a barcode.

Screen Printed Antennas on Fiber-Based Substrates for Sustainable HF RFID Assisted E-Fulfilment Smart Packaging.

Intelligent packaging is an emerging technology, aiming to improve the standard communication function of packaging. Radio frequency identification (RFID) assisted smart packaging is of high interest, but the uptake is limited as the market needs cost-efficient and sustainable applications. The integration of screen printed antennas and RFID chips as smart labels in reusable cardboard packaging could offer a solution. Although paper is an interesting and recyclable material, printing on this substrate is challenging as the ink conductivity is highly influenced by the paper properties. In this study, the best paper/functional silver ink combinations were first selected out of 76 paper substrates based on the paper surface roughness, air permeance, sheet resistance and SEM characterization. Next, a flexible high frequency RFID chip (13.56 MHz) was connected on top of screen printed antennas with a conductive adhesive. Functional RFID labels were integrated in cardboard packaging and its potential application as reusable smart box for third party logistics was tested. In parallel, a web-based software application mimicking its functional abilities in the logistic cycle was developed. This multidisciplinary approach to developing an easy-scalable screen printed antenna and RFID-assisted smart packaging application is a good example for future implementation of hybrid electronics in sustainable smart packaging.

In recent years, the rapid development of the Internet of Things (IoT) technology has provided a strong technical support for the technological transformation of the logistics industry. The informatization development of logistics industry increasingly relies on the Internet of Things technology represented by Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology. These technologies lead the whole business process to optimize the business process in the direction of accurate, efficient and real-time. In order to solve the problem that the reader cannot identify the label information correctly due to the phenomenon of data collision in the application of RFID technology, this paper proposes an anti-collision algorithm based on Slotted Random Regressive-style Binary Search Tree (SR-RBST). Based on Slotted ALOHA (SA) the method proposed in this paper uses the Regressive-style Binary Search Tree (RBST) to process the RFID labels in the collision time slot. With the same size of tags, the SR-RBST algorithm needs less total time slot and has higher efficiency and shorter identification time, while with the increase of the number of tags, the SR-RBST anti-collision algorithm has more obvious advantages. The SR-RBST algorithm effectively improves the time slot utilization efficiency of the system.

A new type of TTI based on an electrochemical pseudo transistor

Conventional time–temperature indicators (TTIs) are usually based on various processes, such as the diffusion of colorful solution, color-changing polymerization, enzymatic reactions, and photochromic reactions. In this study, a new type of device based on an electrochemical pseudo-transistor in structured conductive polymers is presented as a TTI with the activation energy closed to results in other studies and products in market. This TTI provides basic functions, such as clock, temperature sensor, and electrical switch. Furthermore, this pseudo-transistor-TTI is combined with radio frequency identification (RFID) technique for the first time.

Localization of passive UHF RFID Labels with Kalman Filter

Abstract. Localization via Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is frequently used in different applications nowadays. It has the advantage that next to its ostensible purpose of identifying objects via their unique IDs it can simultaneously be used for the localization of these objects. In this work it is shown how Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) measurements at different antennae of a passive UHF RFID label can be combined for localization. The localization is only done based on the RSSI measurements and a Kalman Filter (KF). Because of non-linearities in the measurement function it is necessary to incorporate an Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) or an Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF) where simulations have shown that the UKF performs better than the EKF. Additionally to the selection of the filter there are different possibilities to increase the localization accuracy of the UKF: The advantages of using Reference Tags (RT) or more than one tag per trolley (relative positioning) in combination with an Unscented Kalman Filter are discussed and simulations results show that the localization error can be decreased significantly via these methods. Another possibility to increase the localization accuracy and in addition to achieve a more realistic simulation is the consideration of the angle between reader antenna and tag. Simulation results with the incorporation of different numbers of fixed antennae lead to the conclusion that this is a useful surplus in the localization.

Thin film HF RFID tag deposited on paper by thermal evaporation

The authors describe for the first time the fabrication and characterisation of an HF Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) transponder (tag) deposited on paper substrate using thermal evaporation. This technique is well adapted to the depositing of thin layers with good electrical properties directly on paper. This process helps to reduce the required amount of metal and the number of manufacturing stages in the realisation of RFID labels. The coil antenna consists of a thin aluminium layer evaporated through a masking system. The low thickness of metal that grows during thermal evaporation presents a good metal conductivity. After the RFID chip bonding, the tags are perfectly operational. We have developed the theoretical aspect related to the parameter thickness of the layer deposited as well as the simulation of the transponder. Technological processes implemented to carry out the transponder are then described. The electrical characterisations of the tags are presented and their good performance is illustrated.
