International Journal of Radio Frequency Identification Technology and Applications

 

Special Issue on: "RFID-Enhanced Technology Intelligence and Management"

Guest Editor: Dr Lidong Wang, Mississippi Valley State University, USA

Radio frequency identification (RFID) is one of the automated identification technologies (AIT). An RFID tag is attached to or incorporated into an item or person for identification through radio waves. RFID has been used in many areas such as business and supply chain management, product and asset tracking, manufacturing streamlining, and logistics management in navy, etc. However, RFID tag cost, standards, data management, system integration, information security, and design of tags and readers are still challenges in some applications. The objective of this special issue is to publish the advances of RFID in technology intelligence and management.
