The paper presents research, development and advantage of Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) technology based system for medical instrument management and safe usage. The system is developed for two scenarios. In the first scenario, a Ultra High Frequency (UHF) is used and the UHF–interrogator system with UHF-antennas is constructed to work as conveyor-belt and instruments are placed between two antennas. Second scenario, suitable for the operating rooms, includes four antennas, placed under the table with instruments, system’s phase shifter, inserted between the antenna and reader in order to reduce the effect of dead spots, caused by the electromagnetic reflections. High reliable identification rate is achieved by synchronizing phase shifters with particular interrogator. The system is software calibrated and can be re-calibrated at run-time to achieve high efficiency of power transmission to the antenna and in order to enable the receiver to decode the tag signals. With currently on the market available RFID tags and previously mentioned technology approaches, detection rate of 87.5% can be achieved.

Data-based farming facilitates the zonal management (Smart-FIELD) in the smart farm (SF) vineyards. The classic SCADA for data acquisition and processing system, used especially in rapid industrial processes, can also be adapted for the slow processes (during a vegetation period) of horticultural crops (including the vineyards). The Smart-SCADA core software activities will develop through AI modules the CPS technique for integrating IoT devices with operational applicability in vineyards SF. The Web Smart-SCADA core interconnection with the European platforms in use (UTOPIA, ATLAS, DEMETER, PANTHEON, SmartAgriHubs, …) will add value in the transparency of the traceability of the F2F value chain of grapes.
