Abstract:
RFID (Radio frequency identification) and WSN (Wireless sensor networks) are the two
key wireless technologies that have a large number of uses in present and upcoming
systems. RFID is a wireless automated recognition technology which is primarily used to
recognize objects or to follow their position without providing any sign about the
physical form of the substance. On the other hand, WSN not only offers information
about the state of the substance and environment but also enables multihop wireless
communications. Hence integration of the promising technologies of RFID and WSN
increase their overall functionality and capability and give a novel outlook to a wide
variety of useful applications. As per literature survey no simulator is available for the
integrated environment of RFID and WSN. In this thesis, a simulator has been developed
that integrates both RFID and WSN technology. An application scenario has been run in
order to test the functionality of RFID and sensor networks. Further an integrated RFID
tag with a sensor node has been communicated with the base station/end system.
