Main Functions and Application Scenarios of RFID Handheld Reader

RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) is a wireless communication technology that can identify targets and read/write relevant data through wireless signals, without the need for mechanical or optical contact between the identification system and the target. The principle of RFID is to achieve the purpose of identifying targets through contactless data communication between the reader and the tag. RFID has a wide range of applications, including animal chips, car chip anti-theft devices, access control, parking lot management, production line automation, and material management. The RFID reader communicates wirelessly with the RFID electronic tag through an antenna, enabling the read/write operation for the tag identification code and stored data. The common forms of RFID readers include fixed RFID readers and handheld RFID readers.

The main functions of the handheld RFID reader

The handheld RFID reader can read information stored in RFID electronic tags, read information from RFID electronic tags, and modify information in RFID electronic tags. The basic structure of an RFID system includes an RFID reader, antenna, and RFID electronic tags. The antenna of the RFID handheld reader can be embedded or built-in, and its design has an impact on the performance of the RFID handheld reader. The loading distance of the RFID handheld reader is related to the power consumption of the reader module, antenna gain, tag size, and environmental constraints. The RFID handheld reader is suitable for fields such as logistics, intelligent retail, manufacturing management, clothing enterprise management, anti-counterfeiting traceability, and asset management.

Applications scenarios of the handheld RFID reader

Production management

In production management, the RFID handheld reader can quickly detect whether the types and quantities of goods in the box match, and provide a basis for quality tracing.

Warehouse management

The RFID handheld reader has a long reading distance, allowing workers to quickly collect information about goods by walking between shelves, and complete inventory work.

Store management

In store management, workers can use the RFID reader/writer to quickly inventory display goods and stock, and compare platform data to complete replenishment. When receiving goods, the store staff can use the RFID handheld reader to check the goods without unpacking them. Workers can use the RFID handheld reader to call bulk product information in boxes and check the goods information in a timely and effective manner, reducing receiving time.
