  • System and Method to Automate Placement of RFID Repeaters
    Publication number: 20080001758
    Abstract: The Automatic RFID Tuner has one or more RF repeaters that can travel in the x, y and z axes through a densely packed pallet of goods. The RF repeater identifies dead spots where RF signals from an RFID transceiver do not penetrate the dense packaging. The RF repeater calculates a position that ensures the RF signal will reach all passive RFID tags in the dense packaging. The RF repeater moves to the calculated position so that the RFID transceiver's signal will read all passive RFID tags in the dense packaging.
