Frequency
There are three radio frequencies: LF (125kHz), HF (13.56), UHF (860-960 MHz)
Main criteria for frequency selection
First of all: There is no single frequency able to fulfill all requirements of any high volume application
Functional parameters need to be in line with local standards and regulations
System parameters to be considered for frequency selection are, amongst others:
- required read range
- cost planning
- existing know-how
- integration possibilities at site
- environmental conditions
- required memory capacity
- required read-write speed
As the frequency increases
- The amount of data transfer per second increases
- radio waves behave more like light
- ability to penetrate materials diminishes
