Industrial RFID sensing networks for critical infrastructure security

The Radiofrequency Identification of the emerging Industrial Internet of Things is here applied to the low-level monitoring of critical infrastructures to detect early attempts of physical and cyber attacks. The proposed RFID sensor network, developed within the H2020 project SCISSORS, includes a new family of multi-purpose wireless boards, usable in both battery-less and battery-assisted modes, a multi-antenna reader unit and a multi-level command and control software capable to enforce a hierarchical monitoring of complex environments.
