Power
A low
loss antenna may be used in the reader to make it 10x more efficient
than standard technology. This has direct benefits in battery powered
applications such as hand held readers and our first product of an
RFID equipped pet door.
Range
Range may
be improved through the use of a higher interrogation field strength,
for the same total power. In addition, the reader has excellent
noise performance without a separate tuning circuit coupling phase noise
into the system. Outstanding range is achieved within tight cost
constraints.
Detuning
Although
detuning is more relevant to the transponder, it still may influence the
system performance, depending on the required reader environment. Our
technology is highly tolerant to detuning.
Cost
Tight
cost constraints favour our technology, since the component tolerance
may be relaxed and there is no requirement for a separate tuning
circuit. More efficient operation may also generate knock on savings in
the system power supply.
Multi-Band
Operation
If there
is a requirement for the reader to operate at multiple frequencies then
this range may be designed into the operating band. For example, the two
common low frequencies of 125kHz and 134kHz may be accommodated in one
single design.
