The most portion of the Korean Army's ammunition management system has achieved efficiency and automation based on the Ammunition Information System (AIS). However, a few limitations for the automation system constructed at each site, exist in verifying the real time situation. At the present state of technology, the asset visibility of the located ammunitions is basically achieved. On the other hand, the ammunitions in the middle of transportation are difficult to achieve asset visibility. The RFID(Radio Frequency Identification) technology could be an appropriate solution in these circumstances. Therefore, the objective of this paper is to apply the RFID to improve defense asset management, total asset visibility and ammunition distribution efficiency in the ammunition management system of the Korean Army.

RFID(Radio Frequency Identification) is one of key technologies in ubiquitous computing. RFID system comprises tag, reader, and computer application. The tag is a small electronic chip, which is attached to a thing such as item, pallet, container. The reader has an tiny antenna obtaining the identification information of the things by radio frequency, and provides the information to the computer application for a business. In this paper we have proposed the military application of RFID and its implementation policy for the Korean armed forces. We believe that The principle application area would be logistics TAV(total asset visibility) and resource management, and the implementation should be achieved step by step considering the advancement of RFID technology and government policy.
