Radio Frequency Identification (Rfid) Device Programing System and Method

摘要

A radio frequency identification (RFID) device programming system and method may be used to provide pre-programmed RFID devices, for example, as a roll of RFID devices that may be later applied to articles or items. The programming system may include a plurality of RFID probes configured to apply programming signals to the RFID devices and a RFID programmer connected to the probes and configured to generate the programming signals. The programming system may also include a web positioning mechanism configured to position a web including the RFID devices such that the group of RFID devices is positioned in within a programming range of the probes. A controller may be configured to control the web positioning mechanism such that sequential groups of the RFID devices are programmed.
