ISO 18000-6 is an international standard developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in order to facilitate Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology. The standard defines the requirements of a system that uses RFID to identify, track and monitor physical items or products through the use of electronic tags or labels attached to them.
ISO 18000-6 specifies the technical requirements were necessary for each tag, its reader interfaces, how the tags interact with their readers, as well as application level communication standards between various systems used in RFID technology. It also provides guidance for designing a system that meets its specific requirements and encourages proper implementation for successful radio frequency identification system deployments.
