RFID (1)
Frequency Band:
•Different frequency mechanisms are used by tags and readers in
each frequency band of high frequency (HF) that is 13.56 MHz and
Ultra High Frequency (UHF) that is 400 to 900 MHz.
Classification of RFID Tags
•Passive Tags
•Active Tags
•Semi-active Tags
•Sensory Tags
Classification of RFID Tags
•Passive Tags:
This is most common type of RFID tag.Passive tags are small,do
not need battery power,and uses electromagnetic energy in the radio
frequency waves.
At low cost these tags can be generated in large quantities.
Less amount of data is stored in a passive RFID tag having low
data transmission rates.
Classification of RFID Tags
•Active Tags:
As active tags are formed with battery power life of active tags are
limited.
Active tags can send the signal far away and on a periodic basis
beacons are transmitted.
Classification of RFID Tags
•Semi-active Tags:
When a reader first operate the tag at that time only semi-active
tags will use built in battery for power circuit.
Classification of RFID Tags
•Sensory Tags:
Sensory tags have various types of sensors to monitor and record
data.
The transmission rate of RFID tag is of upto 115 kbps and they
operate on several ISM bands such as 27 MHz,315 MHz,418
MHz,426 MHz,433 MHz,868 MHz and 915 MHz.
Advantages of RFID
•Fast charging/discharging
•High reliability
•High speed inventorying
•Handling of automated material
•Long life of tag
Disadvantages of RFID
•High cost
•Tag memory capacity
•Calculation of RFID from different vendors
Applications of RFID
•Wireless keyboard/mouse
•Car lock
•Automobile security
•Medical and military
•Personal tracking
•Asset tracking
•Supply chain management
