This document describes Sharp's RFID system and its features. The RFID system can achieve efficiency and automation in various scenarios, including manufacturing, logistics, services, waste disposal, and recycling. The system includes batteryless tags using wireless automatic identification with 2.45GHz microwave technology, as well as high-capacity tags with built-in batteries. It is suitable for different control purposes and applications. It can help build new business models.
The Sharp RFID system offers both passive (battery‑free) and active (battery‑powered) tags that operate in the 2.4 GHz ISM band. The catalogue lists a wide range of tags, handheld and fixed readers, and ID controllers that can be integrated with PLCs and other upper‑level equipment.
Designed for factory‑automation (FA) environments, the system can be applied to manufacturing lines, logistics, container handling, and vehicle identification. While indoor use is the primary focus, the catalogue notes limitations for long‑term outdoor exposure and the need for a radio‑frequency license for certain installations.
