34、touches all aspects of the supply chain, from manufacturing all the way to the end-use consumer. It is important for industrial users, retailers and consumers to know when an RFID tag is present. To this end, the RFID Emblem specified in this International Standard provides the public with a readily
35、 identifiable method to inform users of the presence of RFID. The RFID Emblem provides a visible identification of RFID transponders, interrogators, and tagged items. Visible signs inform consumers whether an item or product contains an RFID tag. Therefore, this meets one of the main requirements fo
36、r consumer privacy protection. The RFID Emblem is a public-domain object intended to augment rather than replace other emblems and logos such as recycling and CE. The RFID Emblem requires no fee for use nor does it have any membership or other use restriction or requirement, other than compliance wi
37、th this International Standard. BS EN 16656:2014EN 16656:2014 (E) 6 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the design and use of the RFID Emblem: an easily identified visual guide that indicates the presence of radio frequency identification (RFID). It does not address location of the RFID Emblem
38、on a label. Specific placement requirements are left to application standards developers. It also specifies an RFID Index, which can be included in the RFID Emblem and which addresses the complication added by the wide range of RFID tags (frequency, protocol and data structure). The RFID Index is a
39、two-character code that provides specific information about compliant tags and interrogators. Successful reading of RFID tags requires knowledge of the frequency, protocol and data structure information provided by the RFID Index. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part,
40、are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN ISO/IEC 19762 (all parts), Information technology
41、Automatic identification and data capture (AIDC) techniques Harmonized vocabulary (ISO/IEC 19762 (all parts) 3 Terms, definitions, symbols and abbreviations For the purposes of this document, the terms, definitions, symbols and abbreviations given in EN ISO/IEC 19762 (all parts) apply. 4 The RFID Em
42、blem 4.1 General The RFID Emblems genesis was the AIM RFID Emblem, developed by the AIM Global RFID Experts Group (REG). The RFID Emblem consists of a unique, public-domain emblem with a two-character code (RFID Index) to indicate the frequency range and, in certain cases, the data structure contain
43、ed within the encoded RFID transponder. A generic emblem without the RFID Index is permitted. Due to the incompatibility of different types of RFID, the use of the generic emblem is discouraged. The RFID Emblem may be used in conjunction with other logos or indicia that indicate specific application
44、s of RFID. 4.2 RFID Index Two-character codes are used to identify the frequency, the air interface protocol, the defining agency for the data, and the data on the tag. This is referred to as the RFID Index. The first character defines the frequency, air interface protocol and defining authority, th
45、e second character defines the data structure. To help installation planners identify encoding or reading equipment suitable for a particular frequency and data structure, a “generic“ code with an asterisk (*) as the second character is assigned for each grouping. This code shall only be used on int
46、errogators and shall not be used on labels or tags. Currently assigned two-character codes are given in Annex A. Codes not currently assigned are reserved for future use. 4.3 Representation The two representations of the RFID Emblem are dark-on-light and light-on-dark, as illustrated below. Examples
47、 of the RFID Emblem for use on RFID-enabled printers/encoders and interrogators, and for use on labels are also illustrated. BS EN 16656:2014EN 16656:2014 (E)7 Figure 1 illustrates the RFID Emblem. Earlier forms and representations of the emblem are not compliant with this International Standard.Fig
48、ure 1 Examples of the RFID EmblemEither form of the RFID Emblem may be used; the form which most visually striking on the printed RFID-enabled label material or tag should be used.The RFID Emblem may also be engraved or embossed in the covering of an RFID tag or item containing an RFID transponder.A
49、s described in 4.6 and Figure 2, a generic emblem with the characters “RFID” is also defined fortransponders and interrogators with non-standardized communication protocols and/or non-standardized data structures.4.4 SizeThe RFID Emblem should be printed no smaller than 14 mm by 13 mm, in any colour. There shall be a minimum 3 mm clear, unprinted area around the RFID Emblem. If direct marking on smallcomponents/products, a smaller emblem may be used but in no case shall the emblem be smaller than 5 mm square. When represented in a low contrast form, it should b
