5. Sun Proprietary/Confidential Information © Sun Microsystems 2005 Use Case: RFID Store Theft Detection Z-Mart Store Layout Each product in the store has a RFID emitter that sends out its product ID P_k every 2 seconds. 16 sensors: S_0, …,S_15. One for each section. Sensor S_i receives product ID P_k and reports (S_i, P_k) to the IEP system. One cannot remove a RFID emitter from its product without destroying it.

7. Sun Proprietary/Confidential Information © Sun Microsystems 2005 Use Case: RFID Store Theft Detection Detect: Stolen Product A product is considered stolen if its signal is received by S_15 (sensor at Exit). And it is not paid yet.

8. Sun Proprietary/Confidential Information © Sun Microsystems 2005 Use Case: RFID Store Theft Detection Detect: Dead RFID Emitter A RFID emitter is considered dead if no sensor has received its signal for the past 10 seconds. And its last reporting sensor is not S_15 (sensor at Exit).
