Rfid Technology in Babaria Institute of Technnology (Bit) :an

This document provides an overview of RFID technology used at the Babaria Institute of Technology (BIT) library. It discusses the basics of RFID, advantages over barcodes, hardware components like smart labels and readers, and applications in library operations. Some constraints of RFID implementation are also outlined, such as high tag costs and reliance on technical support. Overall, the document evaluates the current state of RFID technology in Indian libraries.

RFID TECHNOLOGY IN

BABARIA INSTITUTE OF
TECHNNOLOGY (BIT):an
OVERVIEW
BY
BINAL H JOSHI
LIBRARIAN
BABARIA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY
VADODARA
WHAT IS RFID ?
• RFID STANDS FOR
RADIO
FREQUENCY
IDENTIFICATION
• IN THIS
PRESENTATION I
AM GOING TO
HIGHLIGHT THE
USE OF RFID IN
BIT
OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY
• ADVANTAGES AND
DISADVANTAGES
FACED IN USING RFID
• WHY USE RFID OVER
BAR CODE
• OVERALL
FUNCTIONING IN
VARIOUS LIBRARY
OPERATIONS
• HIGHLIGHT THE
HARDWARE
COMPONENTS
REQUIRED FOR THE
USE OF RFID
RFID VS BAR CODE
• READ & WRITE SYSTEM • READ ONLY
• NO LINE OF SIGHT, • NEEDS DIRECT VISIBLE
ALIGNMENT OR POSITON CONTACT
REQUIRED
• FLEXIBLE TECHNOLOGY • SINGLE ITEM SCAN ONLY
WHICH COMBINES AND DOES NOT PROVIDE
SECURITY & ITEM SECURITY TO THAT
IDENTIFICATION IN A EXTENT
SINGLE TAG • EACH BOOK HAS TO BE
• STOCK VERFICATION SCANNED INDIVIDUALLY
MADE EASIER & FASTER
AS THERE IS NO NEED OF
TAKING BOOKS OUT
FROM THE RACKS
RFID VS BAR CODE
• ELECTRONIC ARTICLE • IT IS NOT THE CASE
SURVELLIANCE SYSTEM WITH BAR CODES
OFFERS A TIGHT
SECURITY CONTROL • SYSTEM IS MORE TIME
OVER LOSS OF BOOKS CONSUMING AS A SINGLE
• REDUCES HUMAN ITEM HAS TO BE
INTERVENTION TO A SCANNED SEPARATELY.
GREAT EXTENT , CAN ACT • RESTRICTIONS ON
AS A SELF CHECK SYSTEM UPDATING
• INFORMATION ON THE INFORMATION ON A
TAG CAN BE UPDATED
BARCODE
WITHOUT REMOVING THE
TAG FROM THE BOOK
HARDWARE COMPONENTS
OF RFID
• SMART LABELS
• RFID CARDS
• MID RANGE READER &
WRITER
• APPLICATION SOFTWARE
RFID CARDS
• RFID INLAY IS INSERTED IN A
PLASTIC CARD
• CARD HAS AN ELECTRONIC
CHIP AND AN ANTENNA IN IT
LIKE A TAG , INSTEAD OF A
BARCODE
2
SMART LABELS
• Based on 13.56 MHZ – a worldwide
standardized frequency
• Libraries use high frequency passive
tags
• In our library we paste these tags on
the preface page of the book
MID RANGE READER
• IT IS CONNECTED TO A
WORKSTATION OR A NETWORK
• READER IS ATTACHED TO A PAD
ANTENNA , ON WHICH THE BOOKS
ARE PLACED
• SUPPORTS ALL RFID FUNCTIONS,
ALLOWING IDENTIFYING
MULTIPLE LABELS
CONSTRAINTS COUNTERED WHILE
USING RFID
• MANUFACTURING OF
RFID HARDWARE IS
AT A NASCENT STAGE
IN INDIA
• PHYSICAL
LIMITATION OF THE
TECHNOLOGY IS THE
INABILITY TO READ
THROUGH METALS
OR LIQUIDS
• EXTREMELY HIGH
COST OF THE TAG IS A
MAJOR LIMITATION
• CAPACITY TO READ
DECREASES AS THE TAG
GETS OLDER AND EVEN
SOMETIMES IT IS TIME
CONSUMING TO READ
THE TAG THROUGH
BOUNDED BOOKS
• PHYSICAL DAMAGE
DONE BY STUDENTS
CANNOT BE AVOIDED
• RETURNS ARE NOT VERY
ATTRACTIVE AS THE
COST OF LABOUR IS NOT
VERY HIGH IN INDIA
• LIBRARIANS NEED TO
DEPEND HEAVILY ON
THE TECHNICAL
PROFESSIONALS
• FURTHER RESEARCH
IN THIS FIELD CAN
IMPROVE THE
SITUATION TO A
GREATER EXTENT .
• WE CAN CONCLUDE
THAT THE USE OF
RFID TECHOLOGY IS
AT A VERY PRIMITIVE
STAGE IN INDIA
