Radio frequency identification (RFID) is a technology that uses radio waves to passively identify tagged objects. RFID tags contain a microchip and antenna that can transmit data to an RFID reader without contact or line-of-sight. RFID is used for various applications like inventory tracking, equipment monitoring, and providing data for electronic medical records. RFID works by having a tag transmit its stored information to a reader via radio waves when illuminated by the reader's signal within its range. The reader then converts this signal to digital data that can be analyzed.

Radio Frequency Identification A Technology that uses radio waves to passively identify a tagged object. It is used in several commercial and industrial applications, from tracking items along a supply chain to keeping track of items checked out of a library. Uses of RFID
Inventory Control
Equipment Tracking
Personnel Tracking
Monitoring Patients
Providing Data for Electronic Medical Records Systems
RFID tags are made out of three pieces: a micro chip (an integrated circuit which stores and processes information. Modulates and demodulates radio-frequency (RF) signals), an antenna for receiving and transmitting the signal and a substrate. Signaling between the reader and the tag is done in several different incompatible ways, depending on the frequency band used by the tag. A group of tags has to be illuminated by the interrogating signal just like a single tag. RFID tags are easy to conceal or incorporate in other items. Signaling between the reader and the tag is done in several different incompatible ways, depending on the frequency band used by the tag. How does RFID work? RFID belongs to a group of technologies referred to as Automatic Identification and Data Capture (AIDC). AIDC methods automatically identify objects, collect data about them, and enter those data directly into computer systems with little or no human intervention. RFID methods utilize radio waves to accomplish this. At a simple level, RFID systems consist of three components: an RFID tag or smart label, an RFID reader, and an antenna. RFID tags contain an integrated circuit and an antenna, which are used to transmit data to the RFID reader (also called an interrogator). The reader then converts the radio waves to a more usable form of data. Information collected from the tags is then transferred through a communications interface to a host computer system, where the data can be stored in a database and analyzed at a later time.
