Mutual interference of readers (antennas)
Using more than one reader
When several RFID readers are used, there is a danger that RFID tags can also be read by
other readers. It must be ensured that the tag can only be identified by the appropriate
reader.
Technical faults between readers can then only occur when they transmit on the same
channel, i.e. in the same frequency range of a frequency band.
To prevent this, the RF660R reader uses the "Listen before talk" technique in Europe or
frequency hopping between many different channels in the USA.
