Information technology - Radio frequency identification for item management - RFID Emblem (ISO/IEC 29160:2012, modified)
This European Standard specifies the design and use of the RFID Emblem: an easily identified visual guide that indicates the presence of radio frequency identification (RFID). It does not address location of the RFID Emblem on a label. Specific placement requirements are left to application standards developers.
It also specifies an RFID Index, which can be included in the RFID Emblem and which addresses the complication added by the wide range of RFID tags (frequency, protocol and data structure). The RFID Index is a two-character code that provides specific information about compliant tags and interrogators. Successful reading of RFID tags requires knowledge of the frequency, protocol and data structure information provided by the RFID Index.
Informationstechnik - Identifizierung von Waren mittels Hochfrequenz (RFID) für das Management des Warenflusses - RFID-Emblem (ISO/IEC 29160:2012, modifiziert)
Diese Europäische Norm legt Aussehen und Verwendung des RFID-Emblems fest: Ein leicht erkennbarer sichtbarer Hinweis, der die Identifizierung von Waren mittels Hochfrequenz (RFID) anzeigt. Es wird nicht behandelt, wo das RFID-Emblem auf einem Etikett anzuordnen ist. Spezielle Vorgaben dafür liegen im Ermessen der Verfasser der Anwendungsnormen.
Für den RFID-Index, der in dem RFID-Emblem enthalten sein kann und der die wegen der großen Auswahl an RFID-Transpondern vorhandenen Merkmale (Frequenz, Protokoll und Datenstruktur) kennzeichnet, wird ebenfalls eine Festlegung getroffen. Der RFID-Index ist ein zweistelliger Code, der bestimmte Angaben zu miteinander konformen Transpondern und Lesegeräten macht. Um die RFID-Transponder erfolgreich auslesen zu können, müssen die Frequenz, das Protokoll und die Datenstruktur, die durch die Angaben des RFID-Indexes bereitgestellt werden, bekannt sein.
Technologies de l'information - Identification par radiofréquence (RFID) pour la gestion d'objets - Emblème RFID (ISO/CEI 29160:2012, modifié)
La présente Norme européenne définit la conception et l'utilisation de l'Emblème RFID : un guide visuel facilement identifiable qui indique la présence de l'identification par radiofréquence (RFID). Elle n'aborde pas la position de l'Emblème RFID sur les labels. La définition d'exigences spécifiques de placement incombe aux développeurs de normes d'application.
La présente Norme européenne définit également un Index RFID, qui peut être inclus dans l'Emblème RFID et qui s'intéresse à la complexité engendrée par la grande diversité des étiquettes radiofréquence RFID (fréquence, protocole et structure de données). L'Index RFID est un code à deux caractères qui fournit des informations spécifiques sur les étiquettes radiofréquence et les interrogateurs conformes. Pour parvenir à lire une étiquette radiofréquence RFID, il faut connaître les informations de fréquence, de protocole et de structure de données fournies par l'Index RFID correspondant.
Informacijska tehnologija - Radiofrekvenčna prepoznava za upravljanje pretoka predmetov - Emblem RFID (ISO/IEC 29160:2012, spremenjen)
Standard ISO/IEC 29160:2012 določa zasnovo in uporabo emblema RFID: preprosto prepoznaven vizualni vodič, ki opozarja na prisotnost radiofrekvenčne prepoznave (RFID). Ne obravnava lokacije emblema RFID na oznaki. Posebne zahteve za postavitev so prepuščene razvijalcem standardov za aplikacije.
Določa tudi indeks RFID, ki ga je mogoče vključiti v emblem RFID in ki obravnava zaplet, ki ga prinaša širok razpon oznak RFID (frekvenca, protokol in podatkovna struktura). Indeks RFID je dvoznakovna šifra, ki zagotavlja posebne informacije o skladnih oznakah in bralnikih. Za uspešno branje oznak RFID je potrebno poznavanje informacij o frekvenci, protokolu in podatkovni strukturi, ki jih zagotavlja indeks RFID.

Introduction
Radio frequency identification (RFID) is a technology that touches all aspects of the supply chain, from
manufacturing all the way to the end-use consumer.
It is important for industrial users, retailers and consumers to know when an RFID tag is present. To this end,
the RFID Emblem specified in this International Standard provides the public with a readily identifiable method
to inform users of the presence of RFID.
The RFID Emblem provides a visible identification of RFID transponders, interrogators, and tagged items.
Visible signs inform consumers whether an item or product contains an RFID tag. Therefore, this meets one of
the main requirements for consumer privacy protection.
The RFID Emblem is a public-domain object intended to augment rather than replace other emblems and
logos such as recycling and CE. The RFID Emblem requires no fee for use nor does it have any membership
or other use restriction or requirement, other than compliance with this International Standard.
1 Scope
This European Standard specifies the design and use of the RFID Emblem: an easily identified visual guide
that indicates the presence of radio frequency identification (RFID). It does not address location of the RFID
Emblem on a label. Specific placement requirements are left to application standards developers.
It also specifies an RFID Index, which can be included in the RFID Emblem and which addresses the
complication added by the wide range of RFID tags (frequency, protocol and data structure). The RFID Index
is a two-character code that provides specific information about compliant tags and interrogators. Successful
reading of RFID tags requires knowledge of the frequency, protocol and data structure information provided by
the RFID Index.

indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references,
the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

4 The RFID Emblem
4.1 General
The RFID Emblem’s genesis was the AIM RFID Emblem, developed by the AIM Global RFID Experts Group
(REG). The RFID Emblem consists of a unique, public-domain emblem with a two-character code (RFID
Index) to indicate the frequency range and, in certain cases, the data structure contained within the encoded
RFID transponder. A generic emblem without the RFID Index is permitted. Due to the incompatibility of
different types of RFID, the use of the generic emblem is discouraged.
The RFID Emblem may be used in conjunction with other logos or indicia that indicate specific applications of
RFID.
4.2 RFID Index
Two-character codes are used to identify the frequency, the air interface protocol, the defining agency for the
data, and the data on the tag. This is referred to as the RFID Index. The first character defines the frequency,
air interface protocol and defining authority, the second character defines the data structure.
To help installation planners identify encoding or reading equipment suitable for a particular frequency and
data structure, a "generic" code with an asterisk (*) as the second character is assigned for each grouping.
This code shall only be used on interrogators and shall not be used on labels or tags. Currently assigned two-
character codes are given in Annex
