Spectrum Regulations 
• Because RFID systems generate and radiate electromagnetic waves, they 
are legally classified as radio systems 
• Every country has it’s own spectrum regulations. 
• Many follows pre-defined standards like 
– FCC: Federal Communications Commission 
– ETSI: European Telecommunications Standards Institute 
• UHF RFID Sample national Regulation Examples : 
– UAE is 868-875.4 MHz . 
– UK 865-868 MHz for RFID . 
– China standard (920~925MHz) 
– American standard (902~928MHz),

Capture output 
RFID Readers Protocols 
LLRP – Low Level Reader Protocol 
Specifies an interface between RFID Readers and Clients. The interface 
protocol is called low-level because it provides control of RFID air 
protocol operation timing and access to air protocol command 
parameters. 
DCI - Discovery configuration & initialization 
Specifies an interface between RFID Readers and Access Controllers 
and the network on which they operate 
RM - Reader Management 
Used by management software to monitor the operating status and 
health of EPCglobal compliant RFID Readers
Data Exchange Protocols 
ALE – Application Level Events 
specifies an interface through which clients may obtain filtered, consolidated Electronic 
Product Code™ (EPC) data from a variety of sources 
EPCIS - EPC Information service 
specification that defines Version 1.0 of EPC Information Services (EPCIS). The goal of EPCIS 
is to enable disparate applications to leverage Electronic Product Code (EPC) data via EPC-related 
data sharing, both within and across enterprises. Ultimately, this sharing is aimed at 
enabling participants in the EPCglobal Network to gain a shared view of the disposition of 
EPC-bearing objects within a relevant business context. 
CBV - Core Business Vocabulary 
Business Vocabulary Standard is to specifies various vocabulary elements and their values 
for use in conjunction with the EPCIS standard, which defines mechanisms to exchange 
information both within and across company boundaries. The vocabulary identifiers and 
definitions in this standard will ensure that all parties who exchange EPCIS data using the 
Core Business Vocabulary will have a common understanding of the semantic meaning of 
that data. 
ONS - Object Name Service 
specifies how the Domain Name System is used to locate authoritative metadata and 
services associated with the SGTIN portion of a given Electronic Product Code™ (EPC). Its 
target audience is developers that will implement Object Name Service (ONS) resolution 
systems for applications
Identify Objects 
TDS – Tag Data Standard 
TDS 
• Defines EPC/RFID tag data, 
including the encoding of GS1 Keys 
in EPC memory, as well as their 
encoding in the context of EPCIS 
TDS: Tag URI 
• Guarantees worldwide uniqueness 
of the EPC across all types of physical 
objects and applications. 
• The formal grammar for the EPC URI 
is as follows: 
– SGTIN-URI | SSCC-URI | SGLN-URI | 
GRAI-URI | GIAI-URI | SRN-URI | 
GDTI-URI | GID-URI | DOD-URI |

• Application Level Events (ALE) is a standard created by EPCGlobal, Inc., The 
ALE specification is a software specification indicating required 
functionality and behavior, as well as a common API expressed through 
XML Schema Definition (XSD) and Web Services Description Language 
(WSDL). 
• It is a standard introduced by EPC global. 
• The role of the ALE interface is to provide independence between: 
– the infrastructure components that acquire the raw EPC data 
– the architectural component(s) that filter & count that data 
– and the applications that use the data. 
This allows changes in one without requiring changes in the other, offering 
significant benefits to both the technology provider and the end-user.

Data Exchange Protocols 
EPCIS: EPC Information Services 
EPCIS: is an EPCglobal standard for sharing EPC related information 
between trading partners. EPCIS provides important new capabilities to 
improve efficiency, security, and visibility in the global supply chain, and 
complements lower level EPCglobal tag, reader, and middleware 
standards.

Readers Protocols - LLRP 
Low Level Reader Protocol 
• The LLRP interface protocol is called low-level because it 
provides control of RFID air protocol operation timing and 
access to air protocol command parameters. 
• The design of this interface recognizes that in some RFID 
systems, there is a requirement for explicit knowledge of 
RFID air protocols and the ability to control Readers that 
implement RFID air protocol communications 
• LLRP is specifically concerned with providing the formats and 
procedures of communications between a Client and a 
Reader
Readers Protocols - LLRP 
Low Level Reader Protocol (Continued) 
A typical LLRP sequence between an application software 
client and a reader involves the following processes: 
• client polling the reader for its capabilities 
• setting the reader configuration 
• sending reader operation commands. 
– Reader Operation Specifications (ROSpecs) 
– Antenna Inventory Specifications (AISpec) 
• sending the reader Access specifications (AccessSpec) 
• obtaining reports back from the reader
