AIM: STUDY OF RFID,

BLUETOOTH AND WLAN.
 RFID (RADIO FREQUENCY
IDENTIFICATION)

• Automatic Identification (Auto ID) in service industries, purchasing and

distribution logistics, manufacturing companies, material flow systems etc.
• RFID tagging is a form of Auto ID where data stored on a tag is transferred via a
radio
frequency link.
• It is used to provide information about people, animals, goods and products.
• RFID reader communicates with the tag to gather the identity of the object to
which the
tag is attached.
RFID TAGS

• RFID Tags sometimes also called RFID Labels and RFID Cards.
• Tags comes in variety of shapes and sizes.
• Tags can be attached to various objects.These objects includes products, cartons,
parts,
assemblies, cars, trucks, physical assets etc.
• Once frequency range is determined then it is time to choose an antenna that best
fits the application.
• Large antennas used with Active tags can have a range of 100 feet or more.
• Large antennas used with Passive tags can have a range of 10 feet or less.
APPLICATIONS OF
RFID
• Electronic Payment
• Supply Chain Management
• Animal Tracking
• Data Transmission in Hostile
Environments
• Quality Assurance Applications
• Tollbooth Control/ Traffic Control
• Item Level (baggage) Tracking
BLUETOOTH

• Bluetooth is a wireless technology that enables any electrical device to

wirelessly communicate in the 2.4 GHz ISM license free frequency band.
• It allows devices such as mobile phones, headsets, PDAs and portable computers to
communicate and send data to each other without the need for wires or cables to link
to devices together.
• Bluetooth is an open wireless technology standard.
• Bluetooth is suitable for short range Personal Area Network (PAN) applications.
BLUETOOTH - ADVANTAGES

• The 2.45 GHz ensures universal compatibility. Complies with airline

regulations.
• Very robust as the radio hops faster and uses shorter packets.
• Low Power Consumption.
• Works in noisy environments.
• Easy to connect different devices.
• It is cheap.
• Easy to install.
BLUETOOTH -
DISADVANTAGES
• Few analog or FH cordless phones have designed to operate at the 2.4GHZ
band.
• No handoff / handover capability.
• Short range communication.
• Connect only two devices at once.
• It can lose connection in certain conditions.
• Prone to receiving cell phone viruses with user data.
WLAN(WIRELESS LOCAL AREA
NETWORK)
• The main goal of wireless LAN is to replacing the wired cabling to ad-hoc
wireless networking.
• WL A N can provide high capacity, full connectivity among attached stations, and
broadcast
capability.
• WL A N is the fastest growing technology.
• It gives flexibility of wireless access into office, home or production environment
but
restricted in the diameter of a building, a campus or a single room.
W L A N STANDARDS

 HiperLAN (High Performance Radio Local Area Network)

• It is a family of standards promoted by the ETSI (European Telecommunication Standard Institute).
• It works at 5GHz band and offers up to 24 Mbps bandwidth at the range of 50m.
 IEEE 802.1
• It is a standard for
wireless LAN
promoted by the
IEEE.

• It operates in 2.4 GHz ISM band and provides wireless connectivity for fixed, portable and mobile
stations within a local area.
WLAN - SECURITY ISSUES

• Denial of Service (DoS)

• Spoofing and Session Hijacking
• Change common passwords
frequently
• Limit or Filter MAC addresses
• Encryption using WEP
• Disable DHCP
• Change subnet default
