Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical
Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of
ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees
established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC
technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental
and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work. In the field of information
technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of the joint technical committee is to prepare International Standards. Draft International
Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication as
an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the national bodies casting a vote.
In exceptional circumstances, when the joint technical committee has collected data of a different kind from
that which is normally published as an International Standard (“state of the art”, for example), it may decide to
publish a Technical Report. A Technical Report is entirely informative in nature and shall be subject to review
every five years in the same manner as an International Standard.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this Technical Report may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO and IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO/IEC TR 29162 was prepared by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information technology,

Introduction
Radio frequency identification (RFID) is one of the AIDC media widely used in the market place. Linear bar
codes and two-dimensional symbols have long utilized AIDC media. The international standard for AIDC
syntax is ISO/IEC 15434. ISO/IEC 15961 and ISO/IEC 15962 were developed as encoding rules for RFID.
Users have long utilized linear bar codes and two-dimensional symbols for item identification and numerous
RFID technologies have recently been developed. Users who want to utilize RFID transponders should
consider compatibility with linear bar codes and two-dimensional symbols already in the system. Because of
the growing diversity and complexity of AIDC media in the market place, especially in RFID, it is not easy for
users to understand how to read and write their data to each application of AIDC media.
This Technical Report explains common data structures used in both optically readable media (linear bar
codes and two-dimensional symbols) and radio-frequency identification. It primarily addresses the use of ASC
MH10 Data Identifiers to provide the semantics, ISO/IEC 15434 to provide the syntax, and ISO techniques of
unique item identification with ISO/IEC 15961 Application Family Identifiers (AFIs) and encoding rules for
RFID using ISO/IEC 15962.
Those interested in applications using Air Transport Association (ATA) SPEC 2000, Text Element Identifiers,
are encouraged to contact the ATA for specific guidance.
Those interested in applications using GS1 Application Identifiers and EPC, specifically for material found in
the EPC Tag Data Standard (TDS), are encouraged to contact GS1 for specific guidance.

5 Standards applied to data encoding for AIDC media
AIDC media in various forms are transported and/or stored, together with goods or items.
ISO/IEC 15434 was developed as a syntax for high capacity AIDC media and applied to many kinds of two-
dimensional symbols.
ISO/IEC 15961 and ISO/IEC 15962 were developed for RFID air interface standards, as an encoding method
only for RFID.
For the sake of simplicity, users want to use a single data standard for the various forms of AIDC media. (See
Figure 1). However, because of the inherent characteristics of RFID and optical technologies, differences in
data encoding arise, some of which will be described within this Technical Report.

Figure 1 — Application user requirement
For example, bar codes are always scanned one at a time, but a large population of RFID tags can be
inventoried nearly simultaneously. To support the RFID inventory operation, the Unique Item Identificaiton
(UII) of the RFID tag is prefaced by “filtering” information (a numbering system identifier or an AFI) that has no
correlation in bar code systems.

---------------------- Page: 7 ----------------------
ISO/IEC TR 29162:2012(E)
As a second example, for faster inventory operations, many RFID tag architectures transmit only the UII
portion of their data during inventory, sending item attendant data only upon request. In contrast, a 2D symbol
reader always obtains and transmits the full contents simultaneously (both UII and item attendant data).
Since the 1970s, linear bar code symbols have typically encoded application-specific “license plate” item
information. The bar code symbol encodes an identifying primary key to a database entry that contains current
information about the item. If the bar code identifier is not serialized (UPC symbols are an example), it
identifies a class of item, such as a certain product of a certain size. If serialized, the “license plate” identifies a
specific instance of an item; in open system applications, it is important that the identification system can
guarantee that each “license plate” is uniquely distinct from all others.
Unique Item Identifiers (UIIs) can be contained in “unique identification-only” media such as a license-plate
bar code symbol or an RFID tag containing only a UII. In the case of “unique identification-only,” a database or
look-up to trading partner communications is required to establish additional information about the entity to
which the UII is attached. Technologies such as two-dimensional symbols and data rich RF tags can contain
this additional “item attendant data” within that medium.
A number of ISO/IEC specifications have been developed for encoding and decoding of linear bar code
symbologies, such as ISO/IEC 15420 for EAN/UPC and ISO/IEC 15417 for Code 128, and for two-
dimensional symbologies, such as ISO/IEC 15438 for PDF417 (see Bibliography for a complete list).
The remainder of this technical report describes currently available methods for encoding both UII and item
attendant data in optical and RFID media. For all two-dimensional symbols, the data syntax specified in
ISO/IEC 15434 (and summarized in Section 6 of this Technical Report) can be used. For most RFID data
carriers, the UII is encoded separately (for efficient inventory operations), and the item attendant data should
be encoded using ISO/IEC 15434 syntax. The RFID encoding options are summarized in Sections 7, 8, and 9
of this Technical Report, and additional RFID-specific guidance is provided in Sections 10, 11, and the
Annexes A through D
6 ISO/IEC 15434 application for high capacity AIDC media
ISO/IEC 15434 is a transfer structure, syntax and coding of messages and data formats when using high
capacity AIDC media between trading partners, specifically between suppliers and recipients and, where
applicable, in support of carrier applications such as bills of lading and carrier sorting and tracking;
ISO/IEC 15434 includes encoded data:
 used in the shipping, receiving and inventory of transport units;
 contained within supporting documentation, in paper or electronic form, related to unit loads or
transport packages;
 used in the sorting and tracking of transport units;
 used for the sorting and tracking of returnable transport items;
 used for the sorting and tracking of products and product packages.

To allow multiple data formats to be contained within a data stream, a two level structure of enveloping is
employed. The outermost layer of the message is a Message Envelope that defines the beginning and end of
the message. Within the Message Envelope are one or more Format Envelopes that contain the data (See
Figure 2). Multiple formats in a single message should be employed only through trading partner agreements.

ISO/IEC TR 29162:2012(E)
Users should refer to ISO/IEC 15434 for the use of information objects as defined in the EDI standard
directories, GS1 AI directory (GS1 General Specification) or ANSI DI directory (ANS MH10.8.2).
6.2 System data elements for compatibility across all AIDC media
As bar code technology began to proliferate in the 1980s, it became apparent that the need existed to encode
more than simple product identity. Lot/batch and serial numbers, purchase order numbers, destination postal
codes, country of origin and a unique license plate for the entity might all need to be encoded on a single
label. Schemes in various industries evolved until the cross-industry exchange of product forced
standardization of tags, or prefixes, to identify the information encoded in the bar code. This gave rise to the
standardization of Data Identifiers (DIs) and Application Identifiers (AIs), referred to as the semantics of an
AIDC data structure, managed by ASC MH10 (DIs) and GS1 (AIs) as defined in ISO/IEC 15418.
Over time, applications were developed for encoding the information on a shipping label into a single symbol,
permitting the information to be read with a single scan. The ability to encode multiple data fields into a symbol
created the requirement to know whether DIs or AIs were being read, where the various structures ended and
others began, and when one would know that no more data followed. This gave rise to the standardization of
data structures into messages, referred to as the syntax of an AIDC message, and was codified in ANS
MH10.8.3 and later in ISO/IEC 15434.
ISO/IEC 24729-1, Information technology — Radio frequency identification for item management — Part 1:
RFID-enabled labels provides a method for enoding the information resident in the RF tag into an optical
symbol, thereby ensuring a backup source of data if the RFID tag should fail.
6.3 Data Carrier Identifiers for RFID and other AIDC media
Various applications need to identify the type of data carrier, and readers and interrogators are able to identify
the means by which the data was entered: RFID, bar code, or key entry. They are able to preface the data
with a data carrier identifier, following the rules of ISO/IEC 15424, Information technology -- Automatic
identification and data capture techniques -- Data Carrier Identifiers (including Symbology Identifiers).
As an example, if an RF tag is unreadable, it may be possible to access a “back-up” technology, e.g. a linear
bar code or two-dimensional symbol. If there is no “back-up” symbol or if it is unreadable, it may be necessary
to key enter the data. Studies for key-entry of data have shown an error rate of approximately 1 in every 300
characters entered, compared to automated techniques with an error rate of 1 in every 1 000 000 characters
entered, or better. If an RF tag or optically readable media fails, it is important to notify the supplier.

7.2 Tag type and UII data storage area
In the early RF tags, RFID memory consisted of a conventional memory structure, incorporating a system
area and a user memory area, as shown in Figure 4. However, in ISO/IEC 18000-63 type C RFID, the
structure changed, and the memory structure and the kinds of data that could be written in each memory area
are defined in the ISO/IEC 18000-63 standard.
From the standpoint of storing UII data, the early RFID had only one user memory area and that is where UII
data was stored. It is recommended that UII data should be the first element in these user area data elements.
In 18000-63 RFID, UII data is written in the UII are. If users intend to deal with two or more UIIs for one item,
the second UII is considered as user data. Because the UII data writing area is dependent on both the
memory type and the intention of the user, the system user should pay careful attention to this point.

7.3 ISO/IEC 18000-63, Type C and 18000-3m3 ASK and EPCglobal memory architecture
The first data element on a compliant tag for product and product packaging shall be the unique identification
described in ISO/IEC 15459-4. The length and nature of this unique identification is defined in this data
element. For an ISO/IEC 18000-63 Type C and ISO/IEC 18000-3 Mode 3 ASK compliant tag, the "unique
identification" data element is segregated from any additional (User Data) by the memory architecture. The
unique identification data element shall be stored in UII memory (Bank 01) with any additional data being
stored in User memory (Bank 11). For the purposes of this standard a unique identity of products can be up to
35 alphanumeric characters in length, including the Data Identifier (an3+an.32). With trading partner
agreement the combined length of the Data Identifier and data can be up to 50 alphanumeric characters in
length. This architecture is shown in Figures 5 and 6 below.
