The RFID tag can be affixed to an object and used to track and manage inventory, assets,

people, etc. For example, it can be affixed to cars, computer equipment, books, mobile
phones, etc.RFID offers advantages over manual systems or use of bar codes. The tag can
be read if passed near a reader, even if it is covered by the object or not visible. The tag
can be read inside a case, carton, box or other container, and unlike barcodes, RFID tags
can be read hundreds at a time. Bar codes can only be read one at a time using current
devices.RFID stands for Radio-Frequency Identification. The acronym refers to small
electronic devices that consist of a small chip and an antenna. The chip typically is
capable of carrying 2,000 bytes of data or less.The RFID device serves the same purpose
as a bar code or a magnetic strip on the back of a credit card or ATM card; it provides a
unique identifier for that object. And, just as a bar code or magnetic strip must be scanned
to get the information, the RFID device must be scanned to retrieve the identifying
information. Tag collision in RFID systems happens when multiple tags are energized by
the RFID tag reader simultaneously, and reflect their respective signals back to the reader
at the same time. This problem is often seen whenever a large volume of tags must be
read together in the same RF field. The reader is unable to differentiate these signals; tag
collision confuses the reader.
