Evaluation of RFID based sensor platform for packaging surveillance applications

In this work a two-chip Battery-Assisted Passive (BAP) Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) based sensor platform is evaluated for two different packaging surveillance applications. The results show that the sensor platform easily can be tailored to be used with different types of sensors to achieve the wanted solution, such as, shock, tilt and tamper evidence sensors and detectors. For the tilt sensor solution the sensor platform have a battery lifetime up to 3.3 years when being powered by a battery with an energy capacity of 33 mAh.
