Abstract

The report analyzes the RFID landscape by examining the current state of the technology, standards, market and the industry. The study looks to provide a deeper understanding to wide audience RFID specifics, advantages and limitations. It is concentrated on the successes and limitations encountered with the current iterations of available RFID products. It also looks further, until 2010, with market forecast and technologies on the horizon.

In particular, this report goal was to addresses the following RFID aspects:

RFID market characteristics, their specifics, and market segmentation
Technology for RFID, technological trends, standards and associated issues
Sociological RFID issues
Market barriers
Applications
Current implementation
Market players and their products.

Update includes new materials, such as RFID networking and stresses the importance of this technology to improve Homeland Security.

There are two major parts of this report: Technologies and Markets.

In the Technology part, the report discusses RFID standards, regulatory issues, and shows differences in regional developments of RFID. This part also researches various RFID technologies, networking, processes, types of these devices and their characteristics. Limitations and advantages of each type are addressed.

In the Market part, the report discusses RFID applications, market characteristics and provides the market forecasts. It also summarizes a survey of the major industry players with detailed analysis of their portfolios.

This report also provides a Summary of the authors' findings.
