UHF RFID Reader
UHF RFID Reader is used in various applications like tracking inventory, anti-counterfeit and anti-shoplifting systems. It is also an excellent technology for fast and efficient warehouse automation.
A typical UHF RFID tag includes an IC with four memory banks. One of these is the TID memory bank which contains a unique, randomized EPC number.
Long range
Long range UHF RFID Readers work with a range of tag sizes and frequencies. They also support a number of communication protocols, including standardized air interfaces like ‘EPC Gen 2’ and the ISO 18000-6C standard. This type of RFID technology can help you automate inventory management processes and increase efficiency. It is particularly useful in the manufacturing and supply chain industries.
In addition to being able to identify the contents of boxes and other containers, long-range UHF RFID Readers can also read barcodes. This makes them ideal for warehouses, loading docks and storerooms. They can also improve accuracy and speed in the retail industry. In addition, they can provide a secure and reliable way to track inventory and reduce costs in supply chain management.
The PK-UHF201 is a high-performance UHF fixed RFID reader based on a proprietary efficient digital signal processing algorithm, which features a high recognition rate and fast tag read/write operation. It can be widely used in logistics, parking systems, access control, security systems and production process control system.
When choosing a long-range RFID reader for your business, it is important to consider what your expectations are. Depending on the expected use, it is also important to consider any excessive environmental conditions. This could include extreme temperatures, moisture and impact. Nedap can advise you on the most suitable long-range RFID reader for your application.
Low power consumption
With the rapid expansion of e-commerce, consumer products need to be traced in real time. RFID systems paired with UHF technology are capable of providing massive data in real time and have become an indispensable tool for supply chain management. They facilitate the identification of any type of product from luxury garments to wine bottles and pharmacological products.
RFID readers transmit a continuous wave (CW) signal to power passive tags and receive backscattered signals at the same frequency. Due to poor transmitter-to-receiver isolation, the strong CW signal and related transmitter noise leak into the UHF RFID Reader receiver, degrading its sensitivity. To compensate for this, RFID readers use RF-off time in the firmware to reduce its power consumption and extend its operating time.
Depending on the application, UHF RFID Readers require different levels of RF power. Using lower RF power reduces the read range, but may also reduce system performance. Choosing the right RF level requires careful evaluation and testing of different options.
The Nordic ID Stix USB RFID reader is a low-power UHF RFID reader that supports reading and writing to EPC Class 1 Gen 2 (ISO18000-6C) tags and communicating with a variety of connected devices. It also provides class-leading high performance 2D barcode data scanning capabilities. It can be used in applications such as industrial automation, home security, access control, non-contact RF card and other wireless data terminals, and even for biological signal acquisition.
Easy to install
There are many ways to integrate RFID into a system, and each application requires a different set of tools. Choosing the right hardware and software depends on your needs. For example, a tag’s size and power requirements can affect how easy it is to use. Then, there’s the issue of interference. RFID is susceptible to interference, which is why it’s important to choose a location for your reader where it won’t be subjected to many other sources of electromagnetic radiation.
RAIN RFID technology offers a powerful and versatile solution to real-time tracking. It works across multiple industries to help companies manage their inventory and increase productivity and efficiency. In addition, it can be used in a variety of other applications such as anti-counterfeiting and transportation.
Unlike low-frequency (LF) and high-frequency (HF) tags, UHF RFID readers can read at a greater distance. It also has a more stable performance, requiring fewer antennas to cover the area required for scanning. These factors make it an excellent choice for applications that require a large number of tags to be read at once, such as e-commerce, logistics, and manufacturing.
Versatile
UHF RFID Readers offer great versatility and can be used in a variety of situations. For example, they can be used to track vehicles and equipment in warehouses or to monitor stock inventory in retail. In addition, they can also be used in the healthcare sector to keep track of medical devices.
Typical RFID systems require the reader to transmit a continuous wave (CW) signal and receive a backscattered signal from the tags at the same frequency. Unfortunately, the strong transmitter UHF RFID Reader noise and CW amplitude can leak into the receiver, reducing the sensitivity of the receiver. This is known as self jamming and can degrade the system performance.
To address this problem, the HARTING Ha-VIS RF-R350 has incorporated Blackfin processor-based signal-processing into the RF front end IC to implement an MxFE (multiplexed front-end). The MxFE consists of an integrated RF transmitter modulator, local oscillator, and receiver analog baseband front-end. This combination reduces overall component count and power consumption by allowing a higher degree of integration, while providing the necessary performance to meet critical system requirements.
This flexibility makes it easy to integrate RFID into your existing infrastructure and adapt to changing needs in the future. With RFID, you can optimize your supply chain, develop seamless shopping experiences, and enhance operational efficiency in the factory or at the store.
