RFID Technology And ITS Application In Special Equipment Management And Testing

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is known as a contactless automatic identification technique. Featured with the unique contactless and simultaneous multi-object distribution identification, this technique has been widely used in purchasing and logistics, transportation and anti-counterfeiting areas. Special Equipment is involved in the safety of lives, greater risk of a generic term for equipment and facilities. At present, Increasing the number of using Special Equipment companies is hard to manage the information of equipment and arrange for inspection scheme. Therefore, the research uses the RFID technology to manage and examine the special equipment, to raises special equipment's management level and the security, has the vital significance.The first part of the thesis aims to introduce the automatic identification technique and development of the RFID technique. The definition of RFID, its classification, advantages and typical application are summarized. The function and mechanism of the main system components, which include the reader, the electronic tags and the middleware between these two parts, are described in details. Two methods distinguish the RFID systems, one based upon inductive coupling and one based upon backscatter coupling. We reviewed the data coding and check technique and did in-depth research on the anti-collision technique.Base on above knowledge, a Special Equipment Management and Testing System based on RFID are developed and discussed. At same time, the Key Technologies about system had been researched, presenting a tag data standard for Special Equipment management and testing, discussing the application of Digital Signature for the system, improving an Anti-collision Algorithm of RFID.Finally, the thesis introduced system software's design and realization, and has given overall system's testing main flow. This system integrates the advanced RFID technology with special equipment's management, helps equipment testing from various aspects, realizes computer management of equipment checking, management and information acquisition. As a result, both reduced examined personnel's labor intensity, and raised equipment's management level, reduced hidden danger.
