This section will cover the five main frequencies used by radio frequency identification systems. The instructor will explain the characteristics and capabilities of each frequency, the three primary types of RFID transponders (active, passive and battery-assisted) and the functionality of each. Participants will also learn about tag characteristics and capabilities.
We’ll also cover the different types of RFID readers, reader performance characteristics, how to configure various readers. The different types of RFID antennas will be explained and participants will learn about antenna read zones and the characteristics of different types of RF antennas. The instructor will also cover the various peripherals used in RFID systems, including RFID label printers and encoders, motion sensors, electric eyes and other feedback devices.
As a benchmark, a summary as well as comparison between RFID and Barcode technologies will also be covered.
