Standards: Are They Really Standard?

The UHF Working Group will be examining the potential for extensions to the current Gen2 UHF protocol for adding security features that are needed for item-level tagging. The item-level joint requirement group’s already established scenarios and requirements will provide the basis by which both groups will be operating. As a neutral organization founded on a frequency-agnostic vision, EPCglobal’s aim is to create an environment that ensures common data structures and command sets that enable ease and simplification of implementation.
