33、nternational Electrotechnical Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees established by the respective organization to deal with particula

34、r fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work. In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have establish

35、ed a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of the joint technical committee is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the joint technical

36、committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the national bodies casting a vote. In exceptional circumstances, the joint technical committee may propose the publication of a Technical Report of one of the follo

37、wing types: type 1, when the required support cannot be obtained for the publication of an International Standard, despite repeated efforts; type 2, when the subject is still under technical development or where for any other reason there is the future but not immediate possibility of an agreement o

38、n an International Standard; type 3, when the joint technical committee has collected data of a different kind from that which is normally published as an International Standard (“state of the art”, for example). Technical Reports of types 1 and 2 are subject to review within three years of publicat

39、ion, to decide whether they can be transformed into International Standards. Technical Reports of type 3 do not necessarily have to be reviewed until the data they provide are considered to be no longer valid or useful. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document

40、 may be the subject of patent rights. ISO and IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO/IEC TR 24729-1, which is a Technical Report of type 2, was prepared by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information technology, Subcommittee SC 31, Automatic ide

41、ntification and data capture techniques. ISO/IEC TR 24729 consists of the following parts, under the general title Information technology Radio frequency identification for item management Implementation guidelines: Part 1: RFID-enabled labels and packaging supporting ISO/IEC 18000-6C Part 2: Recycl

42、ing and RFID tags SANS 24729-1:2009This standard may only be used and printed by approved subscription and freemailing clients of the SABS.viii Introduction The assumptions for this document are: 1. RFID transponders may be placed separately from human- and machine-readable labels or information on

43、to the transport unit or pallet. However, if RFID is to be supplied, it is important to have all three on the transport unit or pallet. 2. RFID transponders will increase in reliability therefore non-reads will be minimized. 3. ISO/IEC TR 24729-2 will describe the disposition of non-readable transpo

44、nders. The performance of RFID devices, particularly those operating at UHF frequencies (860-960 MHz) are strongly influenced by the construction of the RFID-enabled label, where it is applied to the object, and the RF characteristics of the underlying object or objects. In this regard, much more ca

45、re has to be taken in selection and placement of the RFID-enabled label on the object than with a conventional bar code label. This, in turn, requires the additional knowledge and practical guidelines for RFID-enabled label selection and usage provided herein. This Part of ISO/IEC TR 24729 provides

46、background, reference information, and practical knowledge in the selection and application of passive RFID transponders to transport units and pallets (see Layers 2 and 3 of Figure 1) used to move and distribute commercial packaged goods. This may be accomplished with inlays or conventional labels,

47、 tickets and tags with embedded or attached RFID transponders. This document does not address applications where the transponder is embedded in the container itself.

48、bscription and freemailing clients of the SABS.1 1 ScopeOne type of RFID referred to within this document is the EPCglobal Class 1 Generation 2 technology. The “Class” structure originally embraced by EPCglobal has, for the most part, been overtaken by events. Consequently, this technology may be re

49、ferred to as UHF Gen 2 or by its ISO designation, ISO/IEC 18000, Part 6C. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
