Information concerning RFID in scandinavia
RFIG Sweden AB (Radio Frequency Ivestment Group Sweden AB) partner Ingecom SáRL from Switzerland has tested the advanced 2.45 GHz system in an extremely difficult area for RFID equipment, the system that RFIG Sweden AB is trading in a new market segment.
The system was tested in a harbour container yard as well as onboard a container vessel full of containers. The outcome of the test is beyond all the requirements that the user’s specification requested, and hence is going to helps them saving a good deal of money.
The User had a list of requirements, stated the expected reading distance and performance for the test. The test equipment had to comply with the rules stated in the document.
The new active tag systems, that were used in a real working environment in the yards as well as on the vessel, did give the user a great advantage over all the “old fashion” RFID technolo- gies available. An other advantages of the system is that it can be used in all countries round the globe as is do not violate any restrictions in the frequency used.
Due to the result of the test, we are sure that this system will enhance the level of container tracking internationally and would be suitable in any usage to track containers in harbours as well as onboard vessels.
