The RFID reader emits radio waves of specific frequencies through RFID antennas. The waves "give energy" to the tags so that they can communicate by emitting a unique ID. They do not need batteries and can be used for many years. The reader processes the data so that we can integrate them into our application and give themeaning. The typical reading range is 0-12 meters. Gen2 UHF RFID systems consist of: readers, antennas, printers, and RFID tags or labels. In this article I will define with a brief explanation each of the main elements when implementing an RFID project.
