RFID tags
This document describes the JSON data structure for an RFID tag that can be used to uniquely identify an object that has been tagged with an RFID tag. The data structure includes information such as the Electronic Product Code (EPC) of the tag, the frequency of the tag, and the location of the tag's antenna.
Data structure
The following table shows the key, type, and description of each field in the data structure for an RFID tag:
| Key | Type | **Description ** |
|---|---|---|
| tagId | string | The ID of the RFID tag |
| tagType | string | The type of the tag (e.g., RFID, NFC) |
| tagValue | string | The Electronic Product Code (EPC) of the RFID tag |
| frequency | string | The frequency of the RFID tag (e.g., UHF) |
| antennaLocation | string | The location of the tag's antenna (e.g., Front) |
| readerId | string | The ID of the RFID reader that was used to read the tag |
| manufacturer | object | The information about the manufacturer of the RFID tag |
| manufacturer.name | string | The name of the manufacturer |
| manufacturer.partNumber | string | The part number of the RFID tag from the manufacturer |
| manufacturer.serialNumber | string | The serial number of the RFID tag from the manufacturer |
