RFID

RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) is a technology that offers solutions for tagging an object and locating it by means of radio signals emitted by the tag. RFID technology enables tracking of this tag which emits radio frequency. The RFID system is technologically so advanced that the RFID tag can contain all kind of detailed information which can be modified and changed from time to time. This information can be extremely detailed and is generally read by an interrogator which passes it to the computer. The software solution of RFID technology decodes this information that is saved in the tag. Radio signals enable the emission of the details from the tag to the receiver which further transmits it to the computer. The information on the tag is emitted in real time; as a result the tag can be located at all times even if it is mobile. This is a huge leap in technology as far as traditional tagging systems are concerned.

The RFID technology is far superior compared to the orthodox tracking systems. This technology is high speed and can decode a tag in a given radii depending upon its area of coverage.

The whole basis of RFID system relies on the wireless system of communication wherein radio frequency is used. The beauty of this system is based on the fact that radio frequency has a wide range of frequencies available to transmit information and unlike its earlier counterparts( like barcodes) it does not need direct contact or direct visual read the data on the tags.
