All that you need to think about RFID tag technology

RFID technology consists of a tag or a transponder, an antenna and a computer where you store all the information. The tags are detectable from a distance of several feet and can scan multiple items together.

An RFID system can be broken down into two main components. The first component is the RFID tag which transmits data as radio signals. The second is the RFID reader itself, which receives, converts and then stores these radio signals as usable information.

How does RFID technology transmit information?

To understand how information can be passed remotely, sometimes spanning long distances, we need to understand waves. A wave is a disturbance that travels through space or a medium such as air or water. What’s transmitted through the medium is energy, which travels in the form of regular pulses. The distance between these pulses is the wavelength, while the time between pulses determines the wave frequency.

The frequency affects the physical properties of the wave. RFID uses longer wavelengths on the slower end of the electromagnetic spectrum, which encompasses radio waves and microwaves

The three main components of a passive RFID system include:

·         A tag: This can be attached to a remote object and consists of an antenna and an integrated circuit chip that houses the data used to identify the item.

·         A scanner/reader: This device communicates with the tag by both sending and receiving modulated RF signals.

·         A data processing system (i.e. computer): The RF waves reaching the reader are meaningless unless matched to associated information stored in the database.

Operating Frequency:   

This RFID system is mainly operated in three frequency bands.

·         LF: Low-Frequency band

·         HF: High-Frequency band

·         UHF: Ultra High-Frequency band

 

Applications of RFID:

·         Institutions: Library, Hospitals, Schools, and Colleges

·         Transportation and Logistics

·         Access Control

·         Sports

·         Animal Tracking

Uses and applications of RFID Tags

RFID systems have braved their way to countless industrial applications, owing to the ease they offer companies in tracking large amounts of assets.

The uses of RFID tags range across several functions, from inventory or asset tracking to supply chain management. Let’s take a look at some common applications of RFID tagging in today’s business world.

·         Logistics and supply chain visibility

·         Inventory tracking

·         Employee tracking

·         Asset tracking

·         Animal tracking
