RFID scenario application

Abstract

Nowadays, implementations of RFID are growing. More and more trade enterprises are using RFID and other wireless technologies. In case of RFID, there are different implementation forms. RFID can be used widely, but before using it, enterprises must make some changes. In addition, investments are required. Such could be a barrier to implement RFID, especially for medium and small size trade enterprises. The target of such study is to identify the opportunities how the implementation of RFID, can help to reduce costs. To determine potential costs savings, Interactive warehouse simulation model is used. The study results show that the costs can be significantly minimised when RFID is implemented. In addition, some theoretical investigations regarding RFID implementation in logistics are also presented in the paper.
