RFID Versus Contactless Smart Card
Frost & Sullivan, June 2007, Pages: 26
The Frost & Sullivan research titled RFID vs Contactless Smart Cards examines the similarities and differences between the two technologies in terms of their applications and key features. It looks at the key and emerging applications in both technologies in Asia Pacific today, and highlights some of the comparable features between the two technologies. It seeks to clear the misconceptions about their functions and capabilities.
Market Sectors Expert Frost & Sullivan analysts thoroughly examine the following market sectors in this research:
-Smart Cards -Radio Frequency Identification (RFID)
Technologies The following technologies are covered in this research:
-Smart Cards: A smart card is typically a device containing an embedded integrated circuit that can either be a micro-controller (MCU) with internal memory or a memory chip on its own. They can have a contact interface, a contactless interface or a combination of both (combi) on one card.
-Radio Frequency Identification (RFID): Generally, RFID systems have an antenna and a transceiver in a reader, and a tag (also known as a transponder). The antenna transmits a signal that activates the transceiver using radio frequency waves to the tag, which then transmits data back to the antenna. A low frequency RFID system (30 KHz to 500 KHz) has a short read range of usually less than six feet. High frequency systems of 850 MHz to 950 MHz and 2.4 GHz to 2.5 GHz offer longer transmission ranges of more than 90 feet.
