Investigation on the deployment of HF and UHF RFID tag in livestock identification

This paper presents the design of an HF and a UHF tag design that can be used in livestock HF and UHF RFID system. Laboratory testing indicated that both HF and UHF systems have the potential to be used as livestock RFID system. Both HF and UHF systems using ISO 18000 Part 3 (HF) and ISO 18000 Part 6 (UHF) offer the livestock industry the ability to read multiple tags in the race at the same time. Actual field testing will be carried out in the future before large scale deployment is carried out.
