RFID technology provides a more granular visibility for industrial assets and inventory thereby offering a strategic advantage to the business. This paper introduces a technique for deploying RFID systems and engineering solutions based on fundamental electromagnetic understanding of the deployed scenarios. A virtual database comprising of RFID tags, antennae and experimental setup was first created and verified. Experiments were then conducted to identify trends both in lab-based and virtual environments. These trends were then validated against each other to show feasibility of using electromagnetic models to simulate and engineer RFID systems.
