Summary: Fundamentals and Applications in Contactless Smart Cards, Radio Frequency Identification
and Near-Field Communication

The use of RFID and its applications continues to grow and evolve rapidly. Stay current with this well-received reference, updated to include the latest information on the RFID use in ticketing and electronic passports (a very topical subject). The RFID Handbook, Third Edition has also added information on the EPCglobal network and covers EPC network basics. Further expanded sections explain attacks on RFID systems and other security matters, such as transponder emulation or cloning, and defense using cryptographic methods; parts of the chapter on frequency ranges and radio licensing regulations have been revised.
