What is RFID ? Short range radio technology used to communicate information between a stationary location and a movable object Subset of Auto-identification Techniques Allows for identification of objects without any human intervention Data is retrieved and stored remotely using wireless technology Can store wide variety of data

Benifits of RFID Technology No line of sight access needed for reading tag Read range is much larger than barcodes Multiple tags can be read simultaneously by a reader Detailed information collected in one pass rather than individual scans of a product More data can be stored than a barcode which has only an identification number 11/14/09

Coupling Overview Close Coupling Systems
Range: < 1cm Frequencies: 125 to 134 KHz Based on inductive coupling or capacitive coupling E.g for door locking system
Remote Coupling Systems
Range: < 1m Frequencies: 135 KHz to 13.56 MHz Mostly Based on inductive coupling E.g for contcated Smart cardless systems
Long Range System
