10.2.4 Hardware Configuration
Hardware configuration consists of designing and defining what reader, antenna and tag
combination will be implemented at each of the nodes in the business process. It is not a pure

at this stage to help better define the hardware configuration that in turn can give more insight
for software configuration and system integration.
