Combining RFID Reader and WSN Base Station

Identification from a distance is permitted by Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) and different from earlier bar-code technology, it doesn’t need a line of sight. RFID is a method for remotely storing and retrieving data using devices which called RFID tags. It relies on radio energy that enables a remote device (tag) to communicate with a distant base station (reader) and gives the ability of storing and recovering data on these RFID tags. Then it supports a larger set of unique IDs than bar codes.RFID and Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) can be used for coupling the physical and the virtual world. Therefore they are two important components of penetrating computing. Both of them gather information about the current environment, which means sensing and processing information. Consequently Integration of them opens opportunities for fundamental system-level changes in many industrial, commercial, and military applications. The proposed method is integration of RFID Reader and WSN Base Station which can be very effective when the number of transmitting data is very large or real-time work needs to accomplish.
