Introduction

RFID （ Radio Frequency Identification ）

non-contact automatic identification technology

radio signals automatically identifies the target

simultaneous identification more tags

3

The type of RFID [1]Inductive coupling typeTransformer modelLaw of electromagnetic induction

Work frequencies: 125kHz, 225kHz and 13.56MHzIdentification distance is less than 1mSuitable for medium and low-frequency RFID system

4

Backscattered electromagnetic couplingRadar principle modelSpace propagation of electromagnetic waves

Operating frequency: 433MHz, 915MHz, 2.45GHz, 5.8GHzRecognition distance more than 1mSuitable for high frequency, microwave RFID systems

5

The type of RFID [2]

The basic structure of the RFID system

electronic label (Tag) IC + antenna read-only type , read and overwrite type Active type , passive type

Reader

Application System

6

Passive Tag Active Tag

Energy Source Induction or RF Battery

Reading Distance < 3 meters 5~100 meters

Memory 64b~8k 64k~228K

Life Time Up to 10 years 2~7 years

Technology Maturity Medium Low

Weight 0.5~5 g 50~200 g

Cost $0.5~ $10 $20~$70

The function of RFID system

RFID system has

the function

(1) non-directional

reading restrict data (2)

identification of long

distance and convenient

(3) Identification

of speed

(4) Identification

of the accuracy is

high(5) may be provided with read and write

functions

(6) Data storage capacity

(7) can be re-used

(8) safe and a few other

advantages

Characteristics of RFID

Advantages• Misreading rate

• Fast

• Can be used in harsh environments

• You can use the high-speed movement

• Reduce labor costs

Disadvantages

• Lack of standards

• The system has a low compatibility

• Open National Communication bandwidth

• High cost

9

Frequency used on RFID

Microwave (2.4 GHz)

UHF UHF (approximately 850-

900 MHz)

HF high frequency (about 13.56 MHz)

LF low frequency (approximately 125

KHz)

The business model of pig farms on Taiwan

•Operating mainly breeding pig farm extremely improved varieties of pigs

•Bred varieties are then referred to other farms to continue the keeper, is a specialized trafficking "breed" of production

Breeding pig farm

•Specialized pig breeding and rearing pigs after weaning, and then sold to a pig farm to continue farming

Piggy breeding

farms

•From franchise to buy pig farming to grow into a stage hog farms

•Pigs fed into the hog market develop after treatment, it flows into the market trafficking

Pork pig farm

Purpose

Domestic pig farmers still use handwritten notes cards to manage farm

Each new batch of pigs must fill out a new record card, and a booklet way to record

Reduction labor burden and data loss

Design a system to improve the efficiency of farm management farmers.

18

Material and Methods

•UHF animal ear tag Size: 4.5x2.1•Read distance:•MT-RF800BT 1 ~ 50CM (effective distance)                            1 ~ 30CM (steady distance)

19

•Reader [MT - RF800 - BT]

Specification of reader

21

Bluetooth principle of operationMutual transfer between devices through chip, without going

through a cable transmission.

Bluetooth is Work on a 2.45GHz frequency band

One to One Or One to many to connect

Bluetooth transmission range of 10 meters (0dB) to 100 meters (20dB)

1600 times per second using frequency hopping spread spectrum technology.

ConclusionsFarm industry, everyone has their own exclusive

Farming theory

Several commonly used functions on the basic design of a universal system based

Improve pig breeding farm for a traditional paper record card data caused easily lost

The farm owner can be more efficient farms pigs grasp the actual situation
