摘要

Radio frequency identification (RFID) used in logistics information service management has attracted considerable media attention in recent years. This paper explores a variety of issues concerning RFID technology. It includes an overview of research and development, technology and current and future applications. The framework of networked RFID used in logistics is our concerns and a systematic architecture and communication protocol are proposed in our paper. Furthermore, the service opportunities and potential challenge on future logistics which brought by the networked RFID are discussed extensively in this paper.
