20、O/IEC 18000-6:2013ISO/IEC 18000-6:2013(E) ISO/IEC 2013 All rights reserved vIntroduction This part of ISO/IEC 18000 describes a passive backscatter radio frequency identification (RFID) system that supports the following system capabilities: identification and communication with multiple tags in the
21、 field; selection of a subgroup of tags for identification or with which to communicate; reading from and writing to or rewriting data many times to individual tags; user-controlled permanently lockable memory; data integrity protection; Interrogator-to-tag communications link with error detection;
22、tag-to-Interrogator communications link with error detection; support for both passive back-scatter tags with or without batteries. This part of ISO/IEC 18000 provides the overview for a passive-backscatter, RFID system operating in the 860 MHz to 960 MHz frequency range. The system comprises Interr
23、ogators, also known as readers, and tags, also known as labels. The general overview describes four Types called Type A, Type B, Type C and Type D. Details for each part are defined in the following documents: Type A ISO/IEC 18000-61 Type B ISO/IEC 18000-62 Type C ISO/IEC 18000-63 Type D ISO/IEC 180
24、00-64 This part of ISO/IEC 18000 together with ISO/IEC 18000-61, ISO/IEC 18000-62, ISO/IEC 18000-63 and ISO/IEC 18000-64 specify the physical and logical requirements for a passive-backscatter, RFID system operating in the 860 MHz to 960 MHz frequency range. The system comprises Interrogators, also
25、known as readers, and tags, also known as labels. An Interrogator transmits information to a tag by modulating an RF signal in the 860 MHz to 960 MHz frequency range. The tag receives both information and operating energy from this RF signal. Passive tags are those which receive all of their operati
26、ng energy from the Interrogators RF waveform. If tags maintain a battery then they may operate using some passive principles; however, they do not necessarily get all their operating energy from the Interrogators RF waveform. An Interrogator receives information from a tag by transmitting a continuo
27、us-wave (CW) RF signal to the tag; the tag responds by modulating the reflection coefficient of its antenna, thereby backscattering an information signal to the Interrogator. The system is Interrogator-Talks-First (ITF) for Types A, B and C, meaning that a tag modulates its antenna reflection coeffi
28、cient with an information signal only after being directed to do so by an Interrogator. Interrogators and tags are not required to talk simultaneously; rather, communications are half-duplex, meaning that Interrogators talk and tags listen, or vice versa.

29、E) vi ISO/IEC 2013 All rights reservedThis part of ISO/IEC 18000 further contains an optional “tag only talks after listening” Type D, an enhanced Tag Talks Only (TTO) technique. Type D uses Pulse-Position Encoding (PPE) or Miller encoding in the return link and does not define a dedicated forward l
30、ink. In fact, tags may implement one of the types defined in this part of ISO/IEC 18000 (A, B, or C) besides Type D in order to allow enhanced tag access techniques.

31、requency identification for item management Part 6: Parameters for air interface communications at 860 MHz to 960 MHz General 1 Scope This part of ISO/IEC 18000 defines the air interface for radio frequency identification (RFID) devices operating in the 860 MHz to 960 MHz Industrial, Scientific, and
32、 Medical (ISM) band used in item management applications. It provides a common technical specification for RFID devices that can be used by ISO committees developing RFID application standards. This part of ISO/IEC 18000 is intended to allow for compatibility and to encourage inter-operability of pr
33、oducts for the growing RFID market in the international marketplace. It defines the forward and return link parameters for technical attributes including, but not limited to, operating frequency, operating channel accuracy, occupied channel bandwidth, maximum effective isotropic radiated power (EIRP
34、), spurious emissions, modulation, duty cycle, data coding, bit rate, bit rate accuracy, bit transmission order, and, where appropriate, operating channels, frequency hop rate, hop sequence, spreading sequence, and chip rate. It further defines the communications protocol used in the air interface.
35、This part of ISO/IEC 18000, together with ISO/IEC 18000-61, ISO/IEC 18000-62, ISO/IEC 18000-63 and ISO/IEC 18000-64 specifies the physical and logical requirements for a passive-backscatter, Interrogator-Talks-First (ITF) or tag-only-talks-after-listening (TOTAL) RFID system. The system comprises In
36、terrogators, also known as readers, and tags, also known as labels. An Interrogator receives information from a tag by transmitting a continuous-wave (CW) RF signal to the tag; the tag responds by modulating the reflection coefficient of its antenna, thereby backscattering an information signal to t
37、he Interrogator. The system is ITF, meaning that a tag modulates its antenna reflection coefficient with an information signal only after being directed to do so by an Interrogator, or TOTAL, meaning that a tag modulates its antenna reflection coefficient with an information signal upon entering an
38、Interrogators field after first listening for Interrogator modulation in order to determine if the system is ITF or not. This part of ISO/IEC 18000 contains one mode with four types. The detailed technical differences between the four types are shown in the associated parameter tables. Types A, B an
39、d C are ITF. Type A uses Pulse-Interval Encoding (PIE) in the forward link and an adaptive ALOHA collision-arbitration algorithm. Type B uses Manchester in the forward link and an adaptive binary-tree collision-arbitration algorithm. Type C uses PIE in the forward link and a random slotted collision
40、-arbitration algorithm. Type D is TOTAL based on Pulse Position Encoding or Miller M=2 encoded subcarrier. This part of ISO/IEC 18000, together with ISO/IEC 18000-61, ISO/IEC 18000-62, ISO/IEC 18000-63 and ISO/IEC 18000-64 specifies physical interactions (the signalling layer of the communication li
41、nk) between Interrogators and tags, Interrogator and tag operating procedures and commands, the collision arbitration scheme used to identify a specific tag in a multiple-tag environment.
