scope:

This International Standard describes numbering systems that are available for the identification of RF tags. The unique ID can be used . for the traceability of the integrated circuit itself for quality control in its manufacturing process, . for the traceability of the RF tag during its manufacturing process and along its lifetime, . for the completion of the reading in a multi-antenna configuration, . by the anti-collision mechanism to inventory multiple tags in the reader's field of view, and . for the traceability of the Item to which the RF tag is attached.
