What does an RFID tag do?

Radio frequency identification (RFID) tags function as part of a tracking system that uses radio frequency to identify and track tags attached to items or individuals. These tags transmit data from the tag to a reader. The reader can then transmit that data to an RFID computer program. The tag transmits digital data.

The tag consists of three main components: an RFID chip, sometimes called an integrated circuit (IC) or microchip, an antenna, and a substrate.

You can often see RFID used to prevent theft, but they can also track vehicles, pets, and other people or items. They often see use in:

  • Supply chain management
  • IT asset tracking
  • File tracking
  • Vehicle tracking
  • Race timing
  • and much more

What does read range mean for an RFID tag?

Read range refers to the maximum distance the tag can be placed to receive power so it can activate and send back data. This is the maximum distance the tag can be detected.

What types of RFID tags exist?

You can identify the type of RFID tag by its radio frequency. They may come in low frequency (LF), high frequency (HF), or ultra-high frequency (UHF).

  • Low frequency - 30-300 kHz frequency range. Their reading range falls around 10 centimeters or around 3.9 inches.
  • High frequency - 3-30 MHz frequency range. Their read range reaches around 10 centimeters to 1 meter, or 3.9 inches to around 3.3 feet.
  • Ultra-high frequency - 300 MHz to 3 GHz frequency range. Their read range depends on the type of UHF tag with certain options reaching over 100 meters, or around 328 feet.

You can find both active and passive ultra-high frequency tags. Passive RFID tags do not require the reader to have a direct line of sight. However, a passive tag offers a shorter reading range, usually up to 12m (39 feet), and a smaller size. Active RFID tags require their own power source and transmitter but offer a higher read range, with some reaching over 100 meters (328 feet).

Costs may range depending on the type of tag.

Why choose an Ericson RFID tag?

Ericson offers RFID tags that integrates the most advanced reader technology, powerful antennas, alarm interfaces, and long-range product-based tags into comprehensive turn-key systems. These products function as a powerful anti-theft detection system.

Their RFID management system kit includes the following:

  • RFID reader
  • Speedway connect software
  • Four antennas
  • Weatherproof enclosure
  • External alarm
  • All associated cabling

Their tags work with an EPC Gen 2 UHF reader-based system. They use internal software to ensure ideal reader performance without needing an external computer. The reader uses the preloaded software for out-of-the-box operation. This works well for theft detection and prevention without the need for database management.

Ericson’s RFID applications include:

  • Construction
  • Power gen
  • PetroChem
