Scope

The present document covers the minimum characteristics considered necessary in order to make the best use of the available frequencies. It does not necessarily include all the characteristics that may be required by a user@ nor does it necessarily represent the optimum performance achievable. Radio frequency identification products covered within the present document are considered by definition short-range devices. Power limits up to a maximum of 2 W e.r.p. are specified for this equipment in the frequency band 865 MHz to 868 MHz and up to a maximum of 4 W e.r.p. in the frequency band 915 MHz to 921 MHz. It should be noted that the frequency band 915 MHz to 921 MHz has only a limited implementation status within the European Union and the CEPT countries. ERC/REC 70-03 [i.9] provides in appendix 1 an overview of countries where the band is implemented. The present document applies to RFID interrogators and tags operating together as a system. For each specified band@ four high power channels are made available for use by interrogators. The tags respond with a modulated signal preferably in the adjacent low power channels. Interrogators may be used with either integral or external antennas. ElectroMagnetic Compatibility (EMC) requirements are covered by ETSI EN 301 489-1 [i.1] and ETSI EN 301 489-3 [i.2]. The types of equipment covered by the present document are as follows: ? fixed interrogators; ? portable interrogators; ? batteryless tags; ? battery assisted tags; ? battery powered tags. These radio equipment are capable of operating in the frequency ranges The present document contains requirements to demonstrate that the specified radio equipment both effectively uses and supports the efficient use of radio spectrum in order to avoid harmful interference.
