RFID Reader Design for 125 KHz and 13.56 MHz Applications

Abstract

Deployment of radio frequency identification (RFID) system has been rapidly growing and has the potential to affect many different industries and application such as: tracking and identification, payment and stored value systems, access control, anti- counterfeiting. In this thesis, a prototype of RFID reader system working at 125 KHz frequency was designed and successfully implemented by using EM4095 chip as radio frequency interface. A prototype of RFID reader system corresponding to EM4094 chip working at 13.56 MHz frequency and methods of antenna design were also proposed.
