碩士 === 國立高雄應用科技大學 === 工業工程與管理系碩士班 === 96 === An RFID-based traceability system and its wireless communication technology are causing a stir in markets around the world. RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) is one of the greatest innovations in the field without line-of-sight and content real-time information acquisition technique. Current large data storing capability and fast, big amount identifying speed are key features of an RFID technology, and these two advantages enable RFID to replace the traditional barcode in an increasing pace. Use the new technology not only just substitutes the barcode with RFID tags, but also needs to improve the effectiveness of mass information transmission on the supply chain control system. This study constructs a system to monitoring of material or product flow with RFID tags at the real time. A database is constructed by Access System (AS) and integrated by the powerful LabVIEW System with high-speed signal acquisition hardware, server computer and RFID original hardware and software. The developed interface is able to identify whether the products are entering correct places of the assigned warehouse at the real time. Therefore, the material flow from supplier, manufacturer, distributor, retailer and customer can be monitored and controlled. This mechanism of supply chain operations can improve the efficiency and performance of all the supply chain members in current industrial systems.
