The initial trigger that turns on the RF power of the reader to start doing inventory
Inventory Enabling Cycle
Time between an inventory enabling trigger and inventory disabling trigger.
Inventory disabling trigger
The trigger that turns off the RF power of the reader to stop doing inventory
Inventory round
The period between successive Query commands.
Inventory Search Mode
Method of reading tags by antenna. See also Single Target Large Population Inventory.
Modulation Profile
Way of transmitting information between tags and reader.
Multiple-Interrogator environment
An operating environment (defined below) within which the number of simultaneously active
Interrogators is modest relative to the number of available channels (for example, 10 active
Interrogators operating in 50 available channels).
Network failure data backlog
Tag data buffered in reader memory during network failure. Buffered tags are sent to trusted
server when network is restored.
Nominal temperature range
–25 °C to +40 °C (see extended temperature range).
Operating environment
A region within which an Interrogator’s RF transmissions are attenuated by less than 90dB. In
free space, the operating environment is a sphere whose radius is approximately 1000m, with
the Interrogator located at the © 2004, EPCglobal Inc. Page 13 of 94 31 January 2005 center.
In a building or other enclosure, the size and shape of the operating environment depends on
factors such as the material properties and shape of the building, and may be less than 1000m
in certain directions and greater than 1000m in other directions.
