10.2.8 Optimization

Optimization of the performance of the RFID application in business processes is the most

difficult step. It is in this step where the variation of performance caused by the law of

physics has to be tackled. The following are a few questions that may help. However, due

to the unfortunate fact that RFID application involves too many topics: RF transmitter circuits,

antennas, propagation (static and dynamic), scattering (backscatter and bistatic scattering), RF

receiving circuits, software (all layers), it is not an easy task to give a “10 steps to successful

RFID implementation” rule based implementation guideline that works in all environment!
