Ultra-wideband Radio Frequency Identification Systems describes
the essentials of radio frequency identification (RFID)systems as
well as their target markets. The book covers a study of
commercially available RFID systems and characterizes their
performance in terms of read range and reliability in the presence
of conductive and dielectric materials. The capabilities and
limitations of commercial RFID systems are reported followed by
comprehensive discussions of the advantages and challenges of using
ultra-wideband (UWB) technology for tag/reader communications. The
book presents practical aspects of RFID system such as: EPC global
and ISO standards, implementation, and target markets in a simple
and easy to understand language.
Expert contributors drawn from the ranks of academia and industry
have authored chapters in such areas as third-generation wireless,
wireless sensor networks, RF power amplifiers, spread spectrum
modulation, signal propagation, antennas, and other key subjects
that engineers working in RF and wireless need to be familiar with.
This is far more than just a tutorial or reference guide it is a
"guided tour" through the world of cutting-edge RF and wireless
design, combining theory, applications, and philosophies behind the
RF/wireless design process. The multiple and sometimes overlapping
chapters reiterate and emphasize the fundamentals in the context of
different types of wireless applications.
Here are just a few benefits that readers will gain from reading
this book:
*A refresher and update of wireless principles and techniques.
*Information about the latest (and forthcoming) RF and wireless
circuits, products and systems.
*Guidelines, approaches, and techniques to RF/wireless design.
*Examples of typical applications with an emphasis on real-world
situations including existing and forthcoming new components and
integrated circuits.
*Coverage of new and emerging wireless topics heretofore not widely
covered in print (e.g. UWB, RFID, IR, etc.)
* A comprehensive survey of current RF and wireless engineering
practice
* Heavy emphasis on practical applications and design guidelines
* Multiple contributors assure a wide range of perspectives and
avoids individual bias"

RF (radio frequency) and wireless technologies drive communication
today. This technology and its applications enable wireless phones,
portable device roaming, and short-range industrial and commercial
application communication such as the supply chain management
wonder, RFID. Up-to-date information regarding software defined RF,
using frequencies smarter, and, using more of the spectrum, with
ultrawideband technology is detailed.
