Abstract: Provided is a reader for radio frequency identification (RFID) and a RFID system. A reader for RFID that receives a channel signal comprises a frequency oscillator generating an oscillating signal at a frequency that is offset by an offset frequency from a center frequency of the channel signal, a mixer mixing the channel signal with the oscillating signal that is offset, and a filter filtering a mixed frequency signal provided from the mixer. The reader for RFID and the RFID system are improved in reception for the wave identification using a listen before talk (LBT) mode for identifying an electronic tag.

Abstract: Provided are a radio frequency identification (RFID) reader and a RFID system. Particularly, the RFID reader uses a listen before talk (LBT) mode to identify. A reader for RFID comprises a data path block receiving a tag data signal, a search path block receiving a channel search signal, and a path selection block selecting one of the data path block and the search path block.
