2 Frequency and Wavelength f = frequency (cycles/s = Hz) λ = wavelength (m) c = speed of light in vacuum = 3E8 m/s c= λ*f 2

3 Radio Frequency (RF) Bands 3

4 Unlicensed Industrial, Scientific, and Goals Medical l( (ISM)bands Unlicensed spectrum Share spectrum Minimize interference Techniques Limits on power Allowed modulation techniques Antenna gain Conditions of operation 4

5 FCC Rules for ISM Band Wireless Equipment Federal Communications Commission (FCC) regulates frequencies in United States FCC regulations appear in title 47 of the United States Code of Federal Regulations (47CFR) and radio spectrum issues are the subject of part 15 of the FCC rules Industrial, Scientific and Medical (ISM) devices

6 RFID Frequency Bands, part 1 Band Frequency Designation Application Comments Source 125/135 khz LF Livestock, pets, humans 125 khz in US, 135 khz in rest of the world (Dobkin, 2008) Electronic article MHz HF surveillance (EAS) (Finkenzeller, 2003) HF (Finkenzeller, 2003) MHz HF EAS (Finkenzeller, 2003) MHz HF HF Contactless tl smart cards (ISO 14443, 15693), item management (ISO ) (Finkenzeller, 2003) Special applications (Finkenzeller, 2003) 6

7 RFID Frequency Bands, part 2 Frequency Band Designation Application Comments Source Battery powered tags Item for identifying management and locating 433 MHz UHF (ISO ) containers (Dobkin, 2008, p. 19) MHz UHF Item management Europe only, listen before talk, 100 mw ERP (rfid handbook.de website) MHz UHF Item management Europe only, listen before talk, 2 W ERP (rfid handbook.de website) Item Europe only, listen before (rfid handbook.de MHz UHF management talk, W ERP website) US/Canada, 4W EIRP Item spread management spectrum, FCC MHz UHF (ISO ) Part 15 (Finkenzeller, 2003) GHz UHF (microwave) GHz SHF Traffic management rarely used for RFID US/Canada, 4W EIRP spread spectrum, FCC Part 15 4 W EIRP US/Canada, 0.5 W Europe (Dobkin, 2008, p. 17), (Finkenzeller, 2003) and website (rfid handbook.de website) 7

8 Inductive Coupling (Near Field) Wavelength much larger than antenna Inductively coupled for communication Propagation time from reader to tag is fraction of cycle time Act like a transformer 8

9 Radiative Coupling Antenna size comparable to the wavelength Radiative coupling for communication Propagation time from reader to tag is longer than a single RF cycle Antenna launches a electromagnetic wave Use backscattering from tag to reader 9

10 Common passive RFID frequency bands 10

11 FCC Rules for MHz Maximum transmitter power limited to 1 watt for systems that frequency hop across at least 50 channels (Gen 2 readers typically run 1 watt and frequency hop across 50 channels) Maximum EIRP (effective isotropic radiated power) is limited to 4 watts (36 dbm). For antenna gain greater than 6 dbi must reduce power. (For 1 watt reader transmitter the maximum gain antenna can be up to 6 dbi.) When frequency hopping, the transmitter must not use one frequency greater than 0.40 seconds within a 20 second period
