Patent number: 8274367Abstract: In an RFID system comprising a detection unit for detecting an RFID tag and a control unit for exercising the control concerning the RFID tag, a determination unit determines whether to access a second area of an RFID tag comprising storage area, comprising of a first area for storing ID information and the second area for storing command information. An extraction unit extracts command information from the second area when it is determined to access the second area. An execution unit performs a process corresponding to the command information extracted by the extraction unit.Type: GrantFiled: February 29, 2008Date of Patent: September 25, 2012Assignee: Fujitsu LimitedInventors: Tomohiko Maeda, Kazuo Sato, Yoshitaka Muraoka, Hidehiko Fuchida, Shuko Saito

Patent number: 7661598Abstract: In a mechanism for attaching to a cart an RFID tag used for transmitting and receiving data to and from an RFID reader/writer, a holding pocket retains the RFID tag. The orientation of the pocket is kept constant in such a manner that a surface of the RFID tag from which data can be read highly accurately faces an antenna for the RFID reader/writer while keeping the distance between the RFID tag and the antenna within a certain range regardless of the transfer direction of the cart.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 2007Date of Patent: February 16, 2010Assignee: Fujitsu LimitedInventors: Yoshitaka Muraoka, Tomohiko Maeda, Kazuo Sato, Hidehiko Fuchida, Shuko Saito

Publication number: 20080191848Abstract: When a detector sensor such as an infrared sensor or the like detects a palette or cart mounting a product, the output of the radio wave from the antenna of the reader/writer is set to a minimum value. Then, the radio wave output value is gradually increased from the minimum value until an RFID tag can be read/written. After the RFID tag can be read/written, a target process such as the reading/writing of the RFID tag or the like is performed and the process is terminated. After the process is terminated, the radio wave output is returned to the minimum value.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 31, 2007Publication date: August 14, 2008Inventors: Shuko SAITO, Hidehiko FUCHIDA, Tomohiko MAEDA, Yoshitaka MURAOKA, Kazuo SATO
