Beschreibungen/Notizen

• RFID System suffers from limited address space and local mobility. Moreover, it is a monopoly business with few vendors, which are trying to dominate the market with proprietary standard of RFID reader. The proposed system will replace the expensive RFID reader with cheap Wireless Network Interface Card (WNIC). For the purpose, an innovative scheme for RFID tagging system is introduced which will be benefited by well-defined WiFi protocol. IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6) address will be used as product identifier. This will provide a universal identity of the objects with seamless global mobility. The EPC (Electronic Product Code) will directly map to IPv6 address by using an auto configuration method. So that 64 bit EPC will take the place of the EUI-64 portion of IPv6 address. The proposed system suggests the mechanism of reducing significant cost, physical location detection and usage of global unique address, which will also be compatible with existing EPC addressing scheme.
