RFID COMMUNICATION SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING SAME

摘要

The present disclosure provides a system and method for the continuous operation of an RFID communication system in a user-friendly manner and to ensure the reliability thereof in a cost-effective manner by
uploading and storing configuration data from each active reader into a memory of the management system,a control unit polling an activity status for each active reader at regular time intervals, andin the event of an active reader failing, identifying the failed reader and loading the configuration data for the failed reader from the memory into a specified inactive reader, andactivating the specified inactive reader in place of the failed reader to identify the at least one RFID transponder.

主权项

1. An RFID communication system, which comprises:
at least one active reader for identifying at least one RFID transponder, and at least one inactive reader, wherein the RFID communication system also comprises a management system, which comprises the following: at least one management data bus, via which the management system is in bidirectional data communication with the readers; at least one memory for uploading and storing configuration data from each active reader; at least one control unit
for polling an activity status for each active reader at regular time intervals,in the event of an active reader failing, for identifying the failed reader and loading the configuration data for the failed reader from the memory into a specified inactive reader, andfor activating the specified inactive reader in place of the failed reader to identify the at least one RFID transponder.
