2.Semi-active RFID technology introduction
2.1 Introduction to RFID technology
RFID (Radio Frequency Identification Technology) is a non-contact automatic identification technology that automatically recognizes target objects and obtains related data through radio frequency signals. Conceptually, RFID is similar to barcode scanning. The barcode scanning technology attaches the encoded barcode to the target and uses a dedicated scanning reader to use photoelectric signals to transmit information from the bar magnet to the scanning reader; and RFID Use a dedicated RFID reader and a dedicated RFID unit that can be attached to the target, and use RF signals to transmit information from the RFID unit to the RFID reader.
At present, there are roughly three types of products derived from RFID technology: passive RFID products, active RFID products, and semi-active RFID products.
Passive RFID products are the first to develop, and are currently the most mature and widely used products in the market. For example, bus cards, canteen meal cards, bank cards, hotel access cards, second-generation ID cards, etc., which can be seen everywhere in our daily life, belong to the category of close contact recognition. The main operating frequencies of its products are low frequency 125KHZ, high frequency 13.56MHZ, UHF 433MHZ, and UHF 915MHZ.
Active RFID products have been slowly developed in recent years, and their long-distance automatic identification characteristics determine their huge application space and market potential. At present, there are major applications in the field of long-distance automatic identification, such as smart prisons, smart hospitals, smart parking lots, smart transportation, smart cities, smart earth, and the Internet of Things. Active RFID has sprung up in this field and belongs to the category of long-distance automatic identification. The main operating frequencies of the products are ultra-high frequency 915MHZ and microwave 2.45GHZ.
Active RFID products and passive RFID products have different characteristics, which determine different application fields and different application modes, and they also have their own advantages. But in this system, we focus on introducing semi-active RFID products between active RFID and passive RFID. This product integrates the advantages of active RFID and passive RFID. In access control management, personnel can be accurately positioned. , Regional positioning management, perimeter management, electronic fences and security alarms have great advantages.
2.2 Introduction to semi-active RFID technology
Semi-active RFID products, combined with the advantages of active RFID products and passive RFID products, under the trigger of the low frequency 125KHZ frequency, let the microwave 2.45G play its advantage. Semi-active RFID technology, which can also be called low-frequency activation triggering technology, uses low-frequency short-distance precise positioning, microwave long-distance identification and data upload to solve the functions that pure active RFID and passive RFID cannot achieve. Simply put, it is to activate positioning at a short distance, identify and upload data at a long distance. Really achieve the demeanor of a general of “strategic strategy, decisive victory thousands of miles away”.
2.3 Features and advantages of semi-active RFID technology
Semi-active RFID is a flexible application technology that is easy to control, simple and practical, and especially suitable for automatic control. The identification work does not require manual intervention. It can support both read-only working mode and read-write working mode without contact Or aiming; can work freely in various harsh environments, short-distance radio frequency products are not afraid of oil stains, dust pollution and other harsh environments, and can replace barcodes, such as tracking objects on the assembly line of a factory; long-distance radio frequency products are mostly used in traffic, The recognition distance can reach tens of meters, such as automatic toll collection or vehicle identification. Its unique advantages are beyond the reach of other identification technologies, mainly in the following aspects:
Easy and quick to read:
Data reading does not require a light source, and can even be carried out through the outer packaging. The effective recognition distance is larger, and the effective recognition distance can reach more than 30 meters;
Fast recognition speed:
Once the terminal enters the magnetic field, the reader can read the information in it instantly, and can process multiple terminals at the same time to realize batch recognition;
Large data capacity:
The two-dimensional barcode (PDF417) with the largest data capacity can only store up to 2725 numbers; if it contains letters, the storage capacity will be less; RFID terminals can be expanded to dozens of K according to the needs of users;
Long service life and wide application range:
Its radio communication method makes it possible to work in highly polluted environments such as dust and oil pollution and radioactive environments without being in them. The closed packaging of the terminal makes the service life much longer than the printed bar code;
The label data can be changed dynamically:
The programmer can be used to write data, which gives the RFID tag the function of interactive portable data file, and the writing time is less than that of printing a bar code;
Better security:
Not only can it be embedded or attached to products of different shapes and types, but also password protection can be set for the reading and writing of terminal data, thus having higher security;
Dynamic real-time communication:
The terminal communicates with the reader at a frequency of 50-100 times per second, so as long as the object attached to the RFID terminal appears within the effective recognition range of the reader, its position can be dynamically tracked and monitored.

3.General introduction of semi-active RFID system
3.1 System principle
The APS real-time positioning and tracking system uses RFID (electronic tag) as the most advanced identification code at present. It has the characteristics of not easy to break, reliable data, long service life, and long effective communication distance. It is an alternative to barcode and infrared identification. The best choice. Install it on the controlled target to be the unique identification of the target for tracking and positioning.
At work, managers use networked wireless identification base stations to track and locate targets.
3.1.1 Semi-active RFID electronic tags
The semi-active RFID electronic tag integrates the advantages of the active RFID electronic tag and the passive RFID electronic tag as a special marker. In normal conditions, it is in a dormant state and does not work, and does not send RFID signals to the outside world. Only when it enters the activation signal range of the low-frequency activator, the tag starts to work.
3.1.2 Working principle of semi-active RFID automatic identification
Combined with a low-frequency activator, a semi-active RFID tag works normally after being activated. The activation distance of the low-frequency activator is limited. It can only be accurately activated at a small distance and a small range. In this way, the low-frequency activator is used as the base point for positioning, and different base points are installed in different positions, and then used for a long distance in a large area. The reader recognizes and reads the signal, and then uploads the signal to the management center in different uploading methods. In this way, the entire process of signal collection, transmission, processing, and application is completed.
3.1.3 Principles of regional positioning
Schematic diagram:
Figure 3-1 Schematic diagram of system area positioning
As shown in the figure above, we use RFID semi-active technology for personnel area positioning management. In each monitored area, such as each room, a semi-active positioning base station, which is our company’s low-frequency activator, is installed, and each low-frequency activation The device has 4 or 6 activating antennas. 4 or 6 adjacent rooms can share a low-frequency activator. In our positioning system, the positioning base station is the smallest base point, which is the nearest base of the positioning point. The base point, the distance of the activation tag is 3-3.5 meters, that is, each tag is activated within the range of 3-3.5 meters from the activator, and its positioning accuracy can be described as 3-3.5 meters. The activators in different areas have their own unique address codes. When a person enters the positioning base station with a semi-active low-frequency activation tag and is activated, the tag works normally and sends the ID number of the tag to the outside world and also sends out the activation tag. The address code of the activator, in this way, through the address code of the activator, we can locate the location of the label. When the tag is taken from one activator to another location, the uploaded activator address code will also change accordingly, thus forming a complete positioning system. The data uploaded by the tag is received by a large-scale positioning base station gateway, and the information is uploaded to the management center for processing, completing the entire positioning system.
3.2 The overall structure of the system

3.2.2 Schematic diagram of system area positioning
Figure 3-3 Schematic diagram of area positioning
As shown in the above figure: through the address codes of the activators uploaded by different activated tags, the situation of the people near the different activators can be judged, including the number of people, names, positions and other information. In this way, no matter where people go, there will be a local activator lock them to determine their specific location, and timely upload the information to the management center, the management center through a series of transformation processing, and get relevant results. At the same time, we also easily accomplished our established goal, which is to manage the regional positioning of personnel.
3.2.3 Access control management system
Figure 3-4 Schematic diagram of access control management
As shown in the figure above, we install a low-frequency activator for each access control that needs to be managed. Each activator leads to 2 low-frequency activation antennas, namely No. 1 antenna and No. 2 antenna, which are arranged on the outside and inside of the door. A 2.45G long-distance reader/writer independently developed and produced by our company is installed next to the access control as a signal receiver. When a person wearing a semi-active RFID low-frequency activation tag enters the door, they are activated by the activation antenna No. 1 and the activation antenna No. 2, so that the system judges that the person has entered the door. On the contrary, the system recognizes that it is going out. This completes the management of the entire access control system personnel entry and exit judgment.
3.2.4 Concealed installation of equipment
When installing the equipment, we can make full use of the basic conditions of the installation site and flexibly grasp the installation method. Generally, our active antenna is installed on the ceiling and installed secretly to form a beautiful and concise style.
