RFID—What is it?
Overview
RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) is a means of storing and retrieving data through
electromagnetic transmission to an RF compatible integrated circuit, and is now being seen as a
radical means of enhancing data handling processes.
A range of devices and associated systems are available to satisfy an even broader range of
applications. Despite this diversity, the principles upon which they are based are quite straight
forward, even though the technology and technicalities concerning the way in which they operate
can be quite sophisticated.
Physics and Electronic Foundations
System Components
RFID systems have several basic components or technical characteristics that define them.
These are:
• A reader, including an antenna
The device that is used to read and/or write data to RFID tags.
• A tag
A device that transmits to a reader the data.
• The communication between them
RFID uses a defined radio frequency and protocol to transmit......
