METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR RADIO FREQUENCY IDENTIFICATION (RFID) DATA TRANSMISSION

摘要

A method and apparatus for obtaining data of a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tag in a virtual read zone of a non-RFID enabled device. The method comprises determining (505) a location of the non-RFID enabled device, determining (510) a virtual read zone of the non-RFID enabled device using at least the location of the non-RFID enabled device, identifying (515) at least one fixed reader device having an RFID read zone that at least partially includes the virtual read zone, reading (520) data of the RFID tag using the at least one fixed reader device, and transmitting (525) the data of the RFID tag from the at least one fixed reader device to the non-RFID enabled device.
