RFID… history
• 1945
• Leon Theremin
- Espionage tool for the Soviet government
• The British invented a similar technology, the IFF
transponder. Used by allies in World War II to

RFID (Radio Frequency Identification)…
•
Automatic Identification Method
• Stores and Retrieves Data using Tags or Transponders
• Can be attached or incorporated
•
Contains Silicon Chips and Antennas
• Receive and Respond to Radio Frequency Queries from
Transceiver.
RFID… types
• Passive
- No Internal Power Supply
- Quite Small in Size.
• The smallest device can be measured at
0.15mm * 0.15mm.
- Most Common
RFID… types (continued)
• Active
- Internal Power
Supply
- Typically Beacon Tags
-transmit their tag
data and ID at a
predetermined fixed interval
- Response Tags: Only respond when an active
RFID reader requests the tags to transmit
