This is the third revised edition of the established and trusted
RFID Handbook; the most comprehensive introduction to radio
frequency identification (RFID) available.



This essential new edition contains information on electronic
product code (EPC) and the EPC global network, and explains
near-field communication (NFC) in depth. It includes revisions on
chapters devoted to the physical principles of RFID systems and
microprocessors, and supplies up-to-date details on relevant
standards and regulations.

Taking into account critical modern concerns, this handbook
provides the latest information on:

* the use of RFID in ticketing and electronic passports;

* the security of RFID systems, explaining attacks on RFID
systems and other security matters, such as transponder emulation
and cloning, defence using cryptographic methods, and electronic
article surveillance;

* frequency ranges and radio licensing regulations.

The text explores schematic circuits of simple transponders and
readers, and includes new material on active and passive
transponders, ISO/IEC 18000 family, ISO/IEC 15691 and 15692. It
also describes the technical limits of RFID systems.

A unique resource offering a complete overview of the large and
varied world of RFID, Klaus Finkenzeller's volume is useful
for end-users of the technology as well as practitioners in auto ID
and IT designers of RFID products. Computer and electronics
engineers in security system development, microchip designers, and
materials handling specialists benefit from this book, as do
automation, industrial and transport engineers. Clear and thorough
explanations also make this an excellent introduction to the topic
for graduate level students in electronics and industrial
engineering design.

Klaus Finkenzeller was awarded the Fraunhofer-Smart Card
Prize 2008 for the second edition of this publication, which
was celebrated for being an outstanding contribution to the smart
card field.
