RFID technology uses frequencies within the range of 50 kHz to 2.5 GHz.
As shown in the illustration, an RFID system typically includes the
following components:
• RFID tag or transponder that contains data about an item.
• Antenna used to transmit the RF signals between the reader and the
RFID tag.
• Reader with RF transceiver that generates radio frequency signals and
receives RF transmissions from an RFID tag.
In addition to this basic RFID equipment, an RFID system includes
application-specific software.
