How Businesses Use It?

RFID systems offer benefits for businesses of all sizes, allowing them to rapidly improve efficiency and reduce cost by automating processes and improving utilisation of assets and quality. RFID can form the basis of an effective asset management system and is also at the heart of the Internet of Things. Omnia Technologies is one of the prominent RFID Tag Manufacturer and suppliers in Australia.

How do RFID tags work?

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is the use of radio waves to read digital data coded onto tags.

The RFID tag is made up of 2 simple parts; a circuit and an antenna.

When this circuit comes into contact with radio waves at certain frequencies (low, high and ultra-high), an electrical field is created which powers the circuit.

Types of RFID Systems

There are two ways to scan and process radio signals depending on the location and configuration of the RFID tag.

  • Active RFID system instantly captures data from the tags using in-built processors that convert radio signals to digital data.
  • Passive RFID systems work without an antenna processor. They send out radio signals transmitted by an RFID tag to a remote antenna processor that then converts them into a digital form for use by the system.

Benefits  of RFID

The most basic benefit of RFID asset tracking is the convenience and necessity of increased inventory and asset visibility. In other words, RFID tags can be read from anywhere in the facility so that employees will immediately know the location and amount of each item – and provide the status or whereabouts of a shipment that has already left your facility.
