Here we explain what are RFID Tag and RFID Reader,
What are RFID Tag and RFID Reader?
An agile RFID reader is one that can read tags operating at different frequencies or using different methods of communication between the tags and readers.
Radio frequency identification, or RFID, is a generic term for technologies that use radio waves to automatically identify people or objects. There are several methods of identification, but the most common is to store a serial number that identifies a person or object, and perhaps other information, on a microchip that is attached to an antenna (the chip and the antenna together are called an RFID transponder or an RFID tag). The antenna enables the chip to transmit the identification information to a reader. The reader converts the radio waves reflected back from the RFID tag into digital information that can then be passed on to computers that can make use of it.
What are intelligent and dumb readers?
These terms are not precise, but many people use “intelligent reader” to describe one that has the ability not just to run different protocols, but also to filter data and even run applications. Essentially, it is a computer that communicates with the tags. A “dumb” reader, by contrast, is a simple device that might read only one type of tag using one frequency and one protocol. This type typically has very little computing power, so it can’t filter reads, store tag data and so on.
What is reader collision?
One problem encountered with RFID systems mainly longer range UHF systems is that the signal from one reader can interfere with the signal from another where coverage overlaps. This is called reader collision. Readers can use shielding, but this complicates deployments and makes them more expensive. The EPC Gen 2 standard includes something called dense reader mode to avoid reader collision. See below.
What Is Dense Reader Mode?
This is a mode of operation that prevents EPC Gen 2-compliant readers from interfering with one another when many are used in close proximity to one another. Readers hop between channels within a certain frequency spectrum (in the United States, they can hop between 902 MHz and 928 MHz) and may be required to listen for a signal before using a channel. If they “hear” another reader using that channel, they go to another channel to avoid interfering with the reader on that channel.
Can Class 1 and Class 0 readers be upgraded to read Gen 2 tags?
In most cases, a reader that reads Class 1 or Class 0 tags, or both, can be upgraded to read EPC Gen 2 tags by changing the reader firmware. However, EPCglobal plans to certify three different levels of Gen 2-compliant readers. At the lowest level, readers will be certified to work only when there are no other readers within a 1 km radius. The next level will be for readers capable of being deployed with several readers within a 1 km radius. The highest level will be certified to work alongside 50 or more readers within a 1km radius. Readers might need a hardware upgrade, as well as a software upgrade, to achieve the highest level of certification.
How much information can a RFID tag store?
It depends on the vendor, the application and type of tag, but typically a tag carries no more than 2 kilobytes (KB) of data enough to store some basic information about the item it is on. Simple “license plate” tags contain only a 96-bit or 128-bit serial number. The simple tags are cheaper to manufacture and are more useful for applications where the tag will be disposed of with the product packaging. The aerospace industry wants to store parts histories on high memory tag, which has led to the introduction of passive UHF tags that store 4KB or 8KB of data.
What’s the difference between read-only and read-write RFID tags?
Microchips in RFID tags can be read-write, read-only or write once, read many (WORM). With read-write chips, you can add information to the tag or write over existing information when the tag is within range of a reader. Read-write tags usually have a serial number that can’t be written over.
Additional blocks of data can be used to store additional information about the items the tag is attached to (these can usually be locked to prevent overwriting of data). Read-only microchips have information stored on them during the manufacturing process. The information on such chips can never be changed. WORM tags can have a serial number written to them once, and that information cannot be overwritten later.
What’s the difference between passive and active tags?
Active RFID tags have a transmitter and their own power source (typically a battery). The power source is used to run the microchip’s circuitry and to broadcast a signal to a reader (the way a cell phone transmits signals to a base station). Passive tags have no battery. Instead, they draw power from the reader, which sends out electromagnetic waves that induce a current in the tag’s antenna.
Semi-passive tags use a battery to run the chip’s circuitry, but communicate by drawing power from the reader. Active and semi-passive tags are useful for tracking high-value goods that need to be scanned over long ranges, such as railway cars on a track, but they cost more than passive tags, which means they can’t be used on low-cost items.
What is the read range for a typical RFID tag?
There really is no such thing as a “typical” RFID tag, and the read range depends on whether the tag is active or passive. Active tags broadcast a signal, so they have a much longer read range 300 feet or more than passive tags. The read range of passive tags depends on many factors: the frequency of operation, the power of the reader, interference from other RF devices and so on. In general, low-frequency and high-frequency tags tags are read from within three feet (1 meter) and UHF tags are read from 10 to 20 feet. Readers with phased array antennas can increase the read range of passive tags to 60 feet or more.
What is tag collision?
Tag collision occurs when more than one transponder reflects back a signal at the same time, confusing the reader. Different air interface protocol standards (and different proprietary systems) use different techniques for having the tags respond to the reader one at a time. These involve using algorithms to “singulate” the tags. Since each tag can be read in milliseconds, it appears that all the tags are being read simultaneously.
What is energy harvesting?
Most passive RFID tags simply reflect back waves from the reader. Energy harvesting is a technique in which energy from the reader is gathered by the tag, stored briefly and transmitted back to the reader.
What is a chipless RFID tag?
“Chipless RFID” is a generic term for systems that use RF energy to communicate data but don’t store a serial number in a silicon microchip in the transponder. Some chipless tags use plastic or conductive polymers instead of silicon-based microchips. Other chipless tags use materials that reflect back a portion of the radio waves beamed at them.
A computer takes a snapshot of the waves beamed back and uses it like a fingerprint to identify the object with the tag. Companies are experimenting with embedding RF reflecting fibers in paper to prevent unauthorized photocopying of certain documents. There are inks that reflect back radio waves at certain frequencies, enabling farmers, for example, to tattoo a chipless RFID transponder on an animal for identification purposes.
Does RFID tag works around metal and water?
Low- and high-frequency tags work better on products with water and metal. In fact, there are applications in which low-frequency RFID tags are embedded in metal auto parts to track them. Radio waves bounce off metal and are absorbed by water at ultrahigh frequencies. That makes tracking metal products, or those with high water content, with passive UHF tags challenging. However, in recent years, companies have developed special UHF tags designed to overcome these challenges. There are also ways to tag products with metal or water content to ensure reliable read rates.
How is data stored on RFID tag and how we can change data values on passive RFID tags?
Data is typically stored in user memory on a tag. This is separate from the field for the unique serial number, which can be pre-programmed or assigned by a user. The air-interface protocol standards for passive HF and UHF tags (for example, the UHF EPC Gen 2 standard) define basic operations, including read-write, and which memory banks or blocks can be written to. Reader manufacturers often combine these low-level commands with higher-level subroutines in their software development kits, so they can be used by application developers.
Who are the leading RFID tag vendors?
There are many different RFID vendors with different areas of expertise. Some make active tags. Some make passive tags. Some focus only on UHF. Others sell low-, high- and ultra-high frequency systems. InLogic IT Solution is Most Reliable Vendor of RFID Tag in Dubai.
