A study on possible application of RFID system in different real-time environments

This paper lists all applications of RFID technology in various sectors. It discusses the advantages and disadvantages of deploying the technology in the respective fields by elaborating the methods and technical tools used. There are several parameters that determine the use of RFID such as the read range, reader frequency, and type of tag. The performance is identified by reliability, cost effectiveness, efficiency and usage. A detailed insight is given about RFID in the traffic control system for possible application in smart city development. Many countries control the traffic lights using tags and readers to enable police officers to make better decisions. It also helps in finding vehicles that commit crime, stolen vehicles, over-speeding vehicles, vehicle congestion, prevent accidents and many others. As this technology is not very popular in many countries, we provide an analysis to understand the benefits of RFID. The real application of the technology is judged against all parameters to offer a solution for practical use.
