Abstract:

RFID usage in library has many common issues regarding the software system, including the fact that the communication protocol and data interface are not unified, and that the systems have low compatibility and expansibility. For these issues, the article puts forward a model of universal RFID platform based on middleware technology. The universal RFID platform realizes all kinds of access to the RFID devices from different suppliers easily by means of defining the unified communication protocol and data interface, and encapsulating the core RFID business logic modules. In the end, the implementation of the universal RFID platform in Fudan University Library is introduced.
