ISO/IEC 18000-1:2004 Information technology - Radio frequency identification for item management - Part 1: Reference architecture and definition of parameters to be standardized
This part of ISO/IEC 18000 describes the generic architecture concepts in which item identification may
commonly be required within the logistics and supply chain and defines the parameters that need to be
determined in any standardized air interface definition in the subsequent parts of ISO/IEC 18000. The
subsequent parts of ISO/IEC 18000 provide the specific values for definition of the air interface parameters for
a particular frequency/type of air interface from which compliance to (or non compliance with) this part of
ISO/IEC 18000 can be established. This part of ISO/IEC 18000 also provides description of example
conceptual architectures in which these air interfaces are often to be utilized.
This part of ISO/IEC 18000 limits its scope to transactions and data exchanges across the air interface
at Reference point delta (see Figure 1). The means of generating and managing such transactions, other
than a requirement to achieve the transactional performance determined within this part of ISO/IEC 18000,
are outside the scope of this part of ISO/IEC 18000, as is the definition or specification of any supporting
hardware, firmware, software or associated equipment.
Standardization of other reference points is outside the scope of this part of ISO/IEC 18000. (See
Figure 1.)
This part of ISO/IEC 18000 is an enabling standard which supports and promotes several RFID
implementations without making conclusions about the relative technical merits of any available option for any
possible application.
This part of ISO/IEC 18000 also provides reference information in respect of patents that have been
declared to the developers of ISO/IEC 18000 as pertinent and provides reference addresses in respect of
regulations under which ISO/IEC 18000 must operate.
