Using radio frequency identification (RFID) antennas with forklift trucks to identify goods and stock shelves automatically will help to increase efficiency of logistic processes. RFID components designed for integration into forklift trucks have not been investigated yet. It are discussed different approaches to integrate RFID antennas into a forklift truck. The different influences to RFID systems are discussed by consideration of logistic environments. Different antenna concepts are introduced and benchmarked by using simulation and measurement of electric field strength as well as functional tests. The results lead to an optimal system design for different tasks. It is focussed on RFID systems which are able to perform read and write operations with an RFID transponder integrated into box cages or pallets. For this application UHF RFID systems are preferred due to the wide communication range. For write operation, only one single RFID transponder should be used to avoid inconsistent data on different transponders. Usually the RFID transponder is mounted in the middle of the ground plate to allow operation from all sides.
