Factors that can limit the SMR-650-216 reader collection range include:
Obstructions such as multiple
walls, chained areas, solid-core doors,
and enclosures
RF interference from other equipment such as computers, cellular
phones
, walkie-talkies, elevators, electrical motors, or other
RF-emitting devices
Reflection from the ground and from nearby objects
Position and orientation of the SMR-650 reader
Metal or RF-absorbent surface on the tracked item
Tag location relative to the SMR-650
reader, such as behind a metal
obstruction or stacked under multiple layers
Radio interference also affects the probability of collecting any given tag,
and
you can expect some variance in repeatability in the field.
