Abstract: A radio frequency identification (RFID) inventory system/method allowing identification and categorization of radio frequency identification tags (RFIT) is disclosed. The system/method locates a master RFIT (RFIM) within a selected RFID area/cell (RFAC) using a RFID scanner (RFSC) and uses this RFIM to determine a RFIT candidate list (RFCL) that should be located within the RFAC. This RFCL is then compared against scanned RFIT (RFIS) within the RFAC and the RFIS are then categorized as READ, MISSING, WRONG, DIRTY, READ DURATION EXPIRED, or TARGETED PROXIMITY SEARCH. Once RFIS scanning is complete within the selected RFAC, a list of READ, MISSING, WRONG, and DIRTY RFIT are transmitted to an inventory compute server (ICS) to generate an inventory status report (ISR) detailing the RFIT inventory status of the selected RFAC.

This RFCL is then compared against scanned RFIT (RFIS) within the RFAC and the RFIS are then categorized as READ (corresponding to RFIT that are properly within the RFAC and found during the scan), MISSING (corresponding to RFIT that should be located within the selected RFAC but were not scanned), WRONG (corresponding to RFIT that were scanned in the RFAC but should be within another RFAC), or DIRTY (RFIT that are not associated with any known RFAC).
