Abstract: Disclosed herein is an apparatus for controlling a tag including: a communication interface receiving a read request; a tag communicating unit connected to one or more memory tags and transmitting and receiving data; a memory storing instructions for performing reads for the memory tags; and a processor performing a control for the memory tags according to the read request based on the instructions, wherein the instructions include instructions for performing the steps of: transmitting a configuration information request to the memory tags; receiving configuration information from the memory tags; calculating the number of data segment according to the configuration information and transmitting the read request including the number of data segment to the memory tags; and receiving a data segment corresponding to the number of data segment from the memory tags.

Abstract: Disclosed are an apparatus and a method for transmitting a tag. The apparatus for transmitting a tag converts 2 bits of a plurality of bit data into one symbol using phase information and orthogonal information.

Abstract: A radio frequency identification (RFID) smart shelf system manages a product through communication with an RFID tag that is attached to the product on a shelf, and includes an RFID reader, a plurality of reader antennas, and an RF switch that is connected between the RFID reader and the plurality of reader antennas. The RF switch periodically varies a phase difference between RF signals of a portion of a plurality of output connection ports that set a connection to each of the plurality of reader antennas.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method for manufacturing a light emitting diode (LED) module, the method including: disposing a circuit board at a molding space formed by an upper mold and a lower mold; adding a filling material to the molding space; hardening the filling material to form a molding cover covering at least a portion of an upper surface, a lower surface, and a side surface of the circuit board, the molding cover having an opening exposing the lower surface of the circuit board; removing the upper mold and the lower mold from the circuit board; and disposing an LED on the upper surface of the circuit board.

Abstract: An extended Pulse-Interval Encoding (PIE) modulating method in a Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) system, wherein the method modulates 2-bit transmitted data and comprises: adjusting a length of a symbol according to a value of the first bit of the transmitted data; and adjusting a length of an energy transfer waiting section according to a value of the second bit of the transmitted data.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are a radio frequency identification (RFID) system and an operating method thereof. The RFID system includes an RFID tag and an RFID reader transmitting an initialization command to the RFID tag. The initialization command includes a field selecting a single tag accessing mode and a multi-tag processing mode. The RFID reader performs a single tag authentication procedure, which is a procedure of one-to-one accessing one RFID tag, in the case in which the field is set to the single tag accessing mode.

Abstract: A light emitting diode (LED) module including: a circuit board; at least one LED disposed on the circuit board; a molding cover spaced apart from the LED by a predetermined gap and covering upper and lower surfaces of the circuit board at an edge of the circuit board; and a circuit part positioned at the edge of the circuit board and driving the LED. The LED is centrally disposed on an upper surface of the circuit board.

Abstract: A tag apparatus communicating with a reader acquires a command from a signal that is received from the reader, converts data corresponding to the acquired command to a plurality of multi-level parallel data, and generates a plurality of tag load impedances based on bias voltages that are mapped to correspond to each level of the plurality of parallel data. Therefore, a signal having electrical energy corresponding to the plurality of tag load impedances is transmitted to the reader.
