2. History
of RFID

3. In 1945,
Léon Theremin
invented an espionage
tool for the Soviet
Union which
retransmitted incident
radio waves with audio
information.

4. IFF transponder developed in the United Kingdom,
was routinely used by the allies in World War II to
identify aircraft as friend or foe.

5. In 1973,
Mario Cardullo's
device was the first
true ancestor of
modern RFID, as it
was a passive radio
transponder with
memory.

7. In 2004,
EPCglobal hardware Action Group
created the Class 1 Generation 2
interface. The EPC Gen2 standard
was approved in December
2004. The EPC Gen2 standard was
adopted with minor modifications as
ISO 18000-6C in 2006.

13. There are
OBJECTS and
PLACES
where RFID Tag
is inapplicable…

14. “Too small”

15. “T narrow”
oo

16. Effective
solution?

17. Handwrite?

18. Force to
apply the
existing
RFID
tags?

19. Ignore?

20. Inefficient
solutions...

21. We focus on
antenna size

22. Small tags
16x16mm 12x9mm φ11mm

23. …Antenna is still large

24. Breakthrough

25. OCA:
On Chip Antenna

26. We integrate the ultra
small antenna on IC chip

27. Size
IC Chip = RFID Tag

28. Ultimately miniaturized!!
2 x 4 RFID label
> OCA

29. Downsized to

30. Product specification
Tag Size 0.46 x 0.48 mm
Frequency UHF (860 – 960MHz)
Air protocol EPC Class1 Generation2
ISO/IEC 18000-6C
Memory size 512 bit user memory
240 bit EPC memory
Reading distance Up to 1mm

31. Advantage?

32. Ultra small size
0.46 x 0.48mm

33. But same
functions

34. Non-disconnection
between IC chip and antenna

35. Operable with
EPC C1 Gen2
compliance
