Shixian Zeng, Xue Rui, Jixin Liu · 2017
An intelligent Library Smart Bookshelf (LSB) based on the emerging UHF passive RFID technology is currently being designed in order to replace a traditional bar-code system at the university's library.Objectives of the design include maximization of tag readability, localization of tagged items in the smart bookshelf, reduced spill-over energy to nearby shelves.Different types of shelf antennas were used and tested including evanescent-type antennas as well as far-field antennas.The antennas were designed, simulated, built, and tested in a realistic environment.HFSS were used to evaluate radiation parameters and illustrate the radiation effects of near-field and far-field antennas in the presence of the cabinet and library users.The project will provide practical management system convenient and practical, market prospects.
