Abstract
The use of Ultra High Frequency (UHF) Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) in supply
chain management (SCM) systems was a big source for optimism. However, the expected
rapid industry adoption of RFID did not take place. This research explores some of the
existing challenges and obstacles to RFID adoption, such as the lack of consistent UHF
spectrum regulations for RFID or the absence of standards that promote integration with
Automatic Identification and Data Capture (AIDC) media. As a conclusion, in this project
we suggest some solutions to these challenges in the use of multi-frequency RFID tags that
can be read at more that one frequency or novel migration strategies and standards that
would help expand the industry.Outgoin
