INTRODUCTION
• Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) is a generic
term that is used to describe a system that transmits
the identity of an object or person wirelessly, using
radio waves
• RFID is grouped under the category of automatic
identification technologies.
• RFID is designed to enable readers to capture data on
tags and transmit it to a computer system, without
needing a person to be involved.
• A typical RFID Tag consists of a microchip
attached to a radio antenna mounted on a
substrate.
• The chip stores information about a product or
shipment like date of manufacture, destination
and sell-by date.
• To retrieve the data stored on an RFID tag, a
reader is required.
• A typical reader is a device that has one or
more antennas that emit radio waves and
receive signals back from the tag.
• The reader then passes the information in
digital form to a computer system.
OBJECTIVE
• In 21st century, there is a rising need for
automatic identification and data collection
(AIDC) technology
• RFID is one such automated technology
which provides a link to data without the
need to make contact with the item, without
line of sight or in harsh or dirty environments
that may limit other AIDC technologies.
OBJECTIVE
• The main goal of an RFID system is to
retrieve the data through a wireless
connection
• RFID based guard patrolling system
contains handheld RFID reader which can
be easily carried by guards in security
systems.
METHODOLOGY
• RFID tag made up of EPROM and an antenna, is given
to each employee of an organization. It consists of
employee’s name, identification number and
designation.
• Whenever employees enter or exit the organization,
tag is read by the reader and the information is
gathered.
• A database is used to store the information gained
through interrogating the tag.

BLOCK DIAGRAM
• The RFID driver IC continuously transmits RF
signals through antenna which creates electro-
magnetic field.
• Whenever the RFID tag is brought in the vicinity of
this field, the tag gets triggered and hence the data
on the tag is read .
• This data is sent to the microcontroller through the
data lines from the driver IC which can be later
accessed by the user.
• A database of all the valid tag holders is
maintained in a PC.
• RFID reader communicates with the PC
through an RS232 interface.
• The data from the microcontroller is displayed
on an alphanumeric display on an user
request. .
• The data can also be accessed and
modified when needed by an user using a
keypad. The keypad used is a capacitor
sensor keypad.
• The communication between the
microcontroller and the keypad is achieved
through the IIC protocol.
