The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) revised ISO/IEC 18000-1 to address growing adoption of radio frequency identification (RFID), particularly in open supply chain applications and the concurrent development of products and services.
ISO/IEC 18000-1:2008 - Information technology - Radio frequency identification for item management - Reference architecture and definition of parameters to be standardized defines the generic architecture concepts in which item identification may be commonly required within the logistics and supply chain.
It also defines the parameters that need to be determined in any standardized air interface definition in the subsequent parts of ISO/IEC 18000.
All parts of ISO/IEC 18000 provide the specific values for definition of the air interface parameters for a particular frequency/type of air interface from which compliance (or noncompliance) with part 1 of ISO/IEC 18000 can be established.
ISO/IEC 18000-1:2008 also gives examples of conceptual architectures in which these air interfaces are often to be used. It provides parameter definitions for communications protocols within a common framework for internationally usable frequencies for RFID.
According to the organizations, it also provides reference information in respect of patents that have been declared to the developers of ISO/IEC 18000 as pertinent and provides reference addresses in respect of regulations under which ISO/IEC 18000 must operate.
