for optimal tag collection
Factors that can limit the SMR-650 Reader collection range include:
◆
Obstructions such as multiple walls, chained areas, solid-core doors,
and enclosures
◆
RF interference from other equipment such as computers, cellular phones,
walkie-talkies, elevators, electrical motors, or other RF-emitting devices
◆
Reflection from the ground and from nearby objects
◆
Position and orientation of the SMR-650 Reader
◆
Metal or RF-absorbent surface on the tracked item
◆
Tag location relative to the SMR-650 Reader, such as behind a metal
obstruction or stacked under multiple layers
Radio interference also affects the probability of collecting any given tag,
and you can expect some variance in repeatability in the field.
