RFID Resonance Frequency Measurement

This application note shows how the resonance frequency of a RFID tag can be measured using the Bode 100.

 

Radio Frequency IDentification is a widely used method for wireless identification and communication. RFID systems working at low frequencies use inductive coupling and resonance principles for their operation. To ensure proper function of the system it is important that the resonance frequencies of the system parts are known exactly.

The properties of inductive coupling can also be used to determine the resonance frequency of a RFID tag which is not accessible by contacting probes. This application note shows how these measurements can be performed using the Bode 100.
