  1. RFID in Indoor Location Sensing Sucharitha Saibaba Divya Gopinathan

  2. OBJECTIVE OF THE PROJECT • To understand the working of RFID system. • Program the RFID module using PSoC Designer software. • To read and write data to the tags. • To distinguish between multiple tags when simultaneously present in the field. • To demonstrate a practical application of the RFID technology like a small scale Library Management system.

  3. What is RFID? • Radio Frequency Identification • The only truly automatic AIDC technology • Provides non-contact, non-line-of-sight operation • Can be read-only, WORM (write once, read • many) or read/write • Very difficult to counterfeit • Capable of working in harsh environments • Highly capable and proven technology for a wide • range of applications

  4. What Constitutes an RFID System? • One or more RF tags • Two or more antennas • One or more interrogators • One or more host computers • Appropriate software

  5. Transponder Antenna Transponder receives signal Reader broadcasts signal through antenna Transponder is charged with enough energy to send back an identifying response Reader sends info/data to computer system for logging and processing Computer System How Does RFID Work? Reader

  6. RFID Tag Attributes

  7. RFID Technical Design Considerations • Operating Frequency • Available Frequency Bands • RF Signal Propagation (range, reflections, and material transmittance) • Interference • Communication Signal • Interrogation Signal with request commands and control • Response Signal with unique identification and data • Tag Design • Passive or Active Power • Antenna Design and Performance • Integrated Circuit Design • Reader and Reader Antenna • Networking Requirements

  8. How far? How fast? ….....

  9. RFID Programmer SM2005-B5

  10. Main Components of the Project • Cypress PSoC (programmable System-on-Chip) microcontroller. • This microcontroller comes programmed with a Manchester RF 32/64 signal demodulator and decoder. • The ChipModule has nine general purpose IO pins and about 4KB of flash memory that can be filled with custom built code. • The custom code was written using PSOC Designer. • Loading code is done through RS232C serial interface.

  11. SMRFID GUI

  12. Programming the Microcontroller

  13. Objectives Achieved • The communication is established between the microcontroller on the chip module and PC. • The individual tags are written into and read. • Distinguish each tag from one another when multiple tags are present in the RF field.

  14. Future Scope • How this idea can be extended to a real time location system? • The RFID readers can be embedded into the environment and the RFID tags carried by each user inform the system of the current location of that user. • RFID tags are embedded into the environment while users carry RFID readers.
