Scope

The present document applies to RFID interrogators and tags operating together as a system. The interrogators transmit in four specified channels of 200 kHz each using a modulated carrier. The tags preferably respond with a modulated signal in the adjacent low power channels. Interrogators may be used with either integral or external antennas. The present document applies to RFID interrogators used in conjunction with their RFID transponders (tags). The interrogators operate in the dense interrogator mode in 200 kHz channels using a modulated carrier. The tags respond in the adjacent channels with a modulated signal. Interrogators may be used with either integral or external antennas. The types of equipment covered by the present document are as follows: ? fixed interrogators; ? portable interrogators; ? batteryless tags; ? battery assisted tags; ? battery powered tags. These radio equipment types are capable of operating in all or any part of the frequency band as specified below. Table 1: Frequencies of operation Equipment Operating frequencies Interrogator Transmit channel 4 865,6 MHz to 865,8 MHz Interrogator Transmit channel 7 866,2 MHz to 866,4 MHz Interrogator Transmit channel 10 866,8 MHz to 867,0 MHz Interrogator Transmit channel 13 867,4 MHz to 867,6 MHz Interrogator Receive 865,0 MHz to 868,0 MHz Tag Transmit 865,0 MHz to 868,0 MHz The present document is intended to cover the provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC [3] (R&TTE Directive), Article 3.2, which states that "….. radio equipment shall be so constructed that it effectively uses the spectrum allocated to terrestrial/space radio communications and orbital resources so as to avoid harmful interference". In addition to the present document, other ENs that specify technical requirements in respect of essential requirements under other parts of Article 3 of the R&TTE Directive [3] may apply to equipment within the scope of the present document. NOTE: A list of such ENs is included on the web site http://www.newapproach.org/.
