RWMS: RFID Based Weapon Management System

Abstract

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is a new generation of Auto Identification and Data collection technology which helps to automate management processes and allows identification of large number of tagged objects like weapons, using radio waves. In this paper, we propose a novel RFID based management system: RFID based Weapons Management System (RWMS) since weapons management plays an important role in the military control. Since its reliability and flexibility, RFID technique has shown big advantages than the conventional management systems. Time saving, fast accessing of weapons, eliminating manual errors and high accuracy are the main benefits of the RFID based Weapons Management. RFID based Weapons Management system would allow fast transaction flow for the army and will prove immediate and long term benefits to army in traceability and security.
