The rapid development of the market economy has promoted the diversification and richness of market products, and fully satisfied the needs of consumers. But at the same time, counterfeit and counterfeit products have also appeared in large numbers, seriously affecting the interests of consumers and users. Especially those special products and articles that are related to the national economy and people’s livelihood, such as railway materials, medical products and equipment, military materials such as guns and ammunition, and industrial pressure vessels such as liquefied gas cylinders. Once the products are counterfeited and unqualified, they will be brought to the society and individuals. An immeasurable loss. The production, circulation, use and maintenance of these special items require safe and effective anti-counterfeiting and tracking protection measures.
In the past, manufacturers have taken certain anti-counterfeiting measures, such as sticking bar code anti-counterfeiting labels or laser anti-counterfeiting labels on their products. However, due to the small data capacity, inconvenient reading, and high requirements on the identification environment, they cannot achieve perfect anti-counterfeiting and Tracking efficacy. At the same time, counterfeiters, driven by their interests, continue to intensify their counterfeiting technologies and methods, and even form a specialized, group-based, systematic, and networked production model, which makes users unpredictable and suffer. At the same time, legal manufacturers and enterprises have suffered huge losses as a result. Their products and brand image will be damaged, their sales performance will also be affected, and the sales business and work order of their channel partners will be disrupted. In order to combat counterfeit manufacturers, protect channel providers, and improve customer loyalty, legitimate companies need to build a complete set of product anti-counterfeiting, identification and tracking systems, and they put forward higher requirements for anti-counterfeiting technology.
In response to this demand, Tsinghua Tongfang used RFID (electronic tag) technology to develop and launch the “RFID Special Item Anti-counterfeiting Tracking System” application program, and it has successfully applied it in military materials.
RFID technology is hailed as another far-reaching revolution after the Internet. It has broad application potential in the fields of warehousing and logistics, product anti-counterfeiting, product circulation, and product maintenance tracking. In the application of product anti-counterfeiting, RFID is known as the new generation of “electronic patron saint” for its characteristics of safety, efficiency, speed, large storage capacity, and free change of stored information. At the same time, RFID has the advantages of small size and strong functions, which can run through multiple links in the product life cycle, which is embodied in the following aspects:
First of all, product anti-counterfeiting. The anti-counterfeiting electronic label chip adopts digital anti-counterfeiting measures for the anti-counterfeiting of machine-readable information. Using digital technology to encrypt, digitize product information such as product name, product specification, manufacturer, production date, etc., and store it in the electronic label machine-readable chip. The electronic label will be attached to the product to ensure normal use in various environments. Use a tag reader for machine reading to complete electronic tag anti-counterfeiting certification and machine-readable information security confirmation, which effectively plays a role in product anti-counterfeiting.
Secondly, certification in the process of product circulation and use. Customers or authorized suppliers can quickly identify the authenticity of the product, product model specifications, and warranty period by simply shaking the product through the label reader. It can effectively maintain market order, improve the efficiency of product inspection and identification, eliminate unnecessary disputes, protect the interests of authorized suppliers, and improve customer service levels.
Furthermore, the visualization of product warranty, maintenance, and tracking is realized. Products have a certain service life, short or long, and after many different products form a complete system, users usually cannot know the start and end time of each product, which causes the maintenance and repair of the system products to become one. A passive job. Only when the product fails can it be known that the product needs to be replaced, resulting in loss of time and efficiency. And if the products are managed using RFID, the visualization of each product’s warranty, maintenance, and tracking will be realized. During daily inspections, the customer’s maintenance personnel can quickly identify the product warranty period, when it expires, and planned maintenance time by simply shaking the product through the label reader, and unify multiple pieces of scattered information to An RFID saves staff time and reduces the cumbersomeness of product maintenance and management.
The anti-counterfeiting tracking system established with RFID technology can effectively improve the management level of existing products, provide good services to authorized suppliers and end customers, and improve the management service level of enterprises.

System functions
Electronic tag (Tag): It is composed of coupling components and chips. Each tag has a unique electronic code. The internally stored information includes product name, model, manufacturer code, delivery date, maintenance date, and scrap date. The electronic tag is attached to the product itself, and the information is output through the reader. The staff can compare with the visual information on the product. If the information is consistent, the product is true and effective. At the same time, the reader can read the factory date to determine whether the product is invalid.
Reader: Sometimes called interrogator, communicator or reading device, it is used to generate and transmit radio frequency signals and receive the radio frequency signals reflected by electronic tags. Readers and tags pass through a miniature antenna (Antenna) Transmit radio frequency signals. After the radio frequency signal is processed, the information in the electronic tag can be displayed on the reader, and the reader can also write the corresponding information into the electronic tag under certain conditions.
Product anti-counterfeiting tracking management system: It mainly completes the storage and classification management of product RFID information, and realizes the functions of product anti-counterfeiting query, product information tracking and monitoring, data extraction and analysis.
