A Brief Introduction to RFID
Radiofrequencyidentication(RFID)isagenerictermfortechnologies
that use radio waves to automatically identify people or objects. There are
severalmethodsofidentication,themostcommonbeingastoredserial
numberthatidentiesapersonorobject,andperhapsotherinformation,
on a microchip that is integrated with an antenna on an RFID “tag”. The
tagantennaenablesthechiptotransmittheidenticationinformation
backtoareader.Thereaderthenconvertstheradiowavesreectedback
from the RFID tag into digital information that can then be passed onto
computers, which can then process that information.
