Many European countries have approved rfid technology to use the 915-921MHz frequency band

In the past, UHF RFID systems have faced global challenges because RFID in different countries uses different frequency bands, and a product designed for one bandwidth may not be approved for operation in another country. In some cases, this has inhibited the development of global RFID technologies and solutions.

In recent years, Europe has made significant progress in the field of ultra-high frequency RFID technology. Recently, 11 European countries have approved the use of RFID in the 915-921 MHz frequency band. The latest countries to join are Austria, the Czech Republic, Croatia, Latvia, Malta, and Montenegro. as well as Poland, Romania, Sweden, Serbia and Turkey, bringing the total number of participating European countries to 35.

Significant improvements in global compatibility

Many European countries have approved the use of the 915-921 MHz frequency band, which not only makes RFID applications within Europe more unified, but also paves the way for the standardization of the global RFID market. This decision helps reduce the complexity and cost for manufacturers when designing globally applicable RFID readers and systems, improves global compatibility of products, makes tag, reader and system design simpler, and helps shorten the time for new solutions. The plan’s time to market.

Significant improvement in technical performance

Compared with the traditional 865 to 868 MHz frequency band, the 915-921 MHz frequency band provides higher bandwidth and brings significant technical performance improvements. According to reports, after adopting the new frequency band, the reading range of RFID technology can be increased by 40%, the communication speed can be doubled, and the power consumption requirements can be lowered.

As an example, the reader's transmission power increased from 2 watts in the lower ETSI band to 4 watts.

In addition, the reader channel spacing is doubled from 600 kHz to 1200 kHz, and the transmission channel width is widened from 200 kHz to 400 kHz.

Tag backscatter power tolerance increased tenfold, from 10 W in the low frequency band to 100 W in the high frequency band

These performance improvements will further promote the application of RFID technology in various industries, such as logistics management, inventory management, asset management, etc., and improve overall operational efficiency.

Promote the expansion and development of the RFID market

This European decision will promote the expansion and development of the RFID market. On the one hand, more countries and enterprises will adopt RFID technology to meet the needs of digitalization and intelligence; on the other hand, the widespread application of RFID technology will drive the development of related industrial chains, including tags, readers, system integration, etc. Continued growth of links. In addition, this will help promote the continuous maturity and cost reduction of RFID technology, so that its application scope will be further expanded to cover more industries and fields.

Currently, there are still a few countries in Europe such as Germany, Greece and the Netherlands that can only use lower frequency bands due to military band restrictions. But there may be opportunities to add higher frequency bands in the future.

write at the end

With many European countries approving the use of RFID in the 915-921 MHz frequency band and the continuous development and popularization of RFID technology worldwide, we have reason to believe that the future of RFID technology will be broader. In the next few years, RFID technology will further penetrate into various industries and fields and become an important driver of digital and intelligent transformation. At the same time, with the continuous advancement of technology and the continuous reduction of costs, the penetration rate of RFID technology will further increase, injecting new impetus into global economic development.
