How does RFID Reader Work?

2023-09-26

Brief Introduction

RFID Reader communicates with the RFID tag through radio frequency, when the signal approaches the RFID tag, the antenna inside the tag will receive the signal and activate it. The tag will transmit the stored data back to RFID Reader through a feedback signal, and then the RFID Reader will decode and process the data.

RFID reader communicates with the RFID tag through radio frequency, when the signal approaches the RFID tag, the antenna inside the tag will receive the signal and activate it. The tag will transmit the stored data back to RFID Reader through a feedback signal, and then the RFID Reader will decode and process the data.

There are two main communication methods for RFID Reader:

1. Proactive

Active RFID Reader has strong signal transmission capabilities, it can actively communicate with tags, which is suitable for reading tags over long distances.

2. Passive

Passive RFID Reader relies on the energy transmitted by RFID tags to activate and communicate, which is suitable for short distance reading and low-power application scenarios.
