Abstract
Developing RFID based applications is a painstakingly difficult endeavor. The
difficulties include non-standard software and hardware peripherals from vendors,
interoperability problems between different operating system as well as lack of
expertise in terms of low level programming for RFID (i.e. steep learning curve). In
order to address these difficulties, a reusable RFIDTM (RFID Tracking &
Monitoring) Application Programmable Interface (API) for heterogeneous RFID
system has been designed and implemented. The API has been successfully
employed in a number of our application prototypes including tracking of
inventories as well as human/object tracking and tagging. Here, the module has
been tested on a number of different types and configuration of active and passive
readers including that of RF Code Mantis II 433.92MHz Reader, RF Reader
module cc1020ua 433 GHz Texas Instruments, our in-house USM 2.45 GHz
Contactless Active Integrated Reader (CAIR) and UHF Passive Reader.
