Benefits
of RFID Technology
Radio
frequency technology is used for information transmission and reception without
the use of wires (Activewaveinc.com, 2014).
Compared to other technologies, there are some merits associated with the use
of this technology. One advantage is the vast application of the technology in
electronic devices such as wireless telephones, radio and television. Active
RFID has been proposed and adopted as the most efficient mode of tracking goods
in transit using shipments. The ability of the technology to fully capture
automated data and implement tags on the responders makes it an efficient store
for product information. The
transmission from the tags is received by a remote radio frequency reader (Activewaveinc.com, 2014). The technology is
advantageous in that it does not require a direct line of site for the
information reception on the reader.
In
addition to the above advantages, the tags used can endure harsh conditions,
and the transmission is effective due to the long range of coverage. When used
in ports for example, information can be received concerning the cargo in
transit. The database used is highly portable, and it makes it possible to
track items, products, equipment and people in real-time. Compared to other
modes of transmission such as barcodes, RFID technology can constantly update
information as opposed to barcodes that store static information. The
application of this technology in packaging of products enables tracking the
state of the product after dispatch for sale. As a result, defective products
can be recalled for replacement. The medical fraternity is also figuring ways
of implementing the technology to alert on potential patient problems in an
effort of curbing medical errors that lead to death. Another benefit in the
implementing of RFID is the detection of counterfeit products (Journal, 2014). The drug and foods industry is
the most affected by counterfeit goods and the application of RFID technology
will drastically reduce this challenge. As opposed to the current packaging
technology, RFID will reveal product description including warranty and
consumer protection guarantee.
