Abstract:
A method and device of power management for a networked radio frequency identification (“RFID”) system are disclosed. The described power management methods reduce the power consumption of battery-operated RFID readers and RFID tags. These power conservation methods increase the RFID system's hours of operation and decrease the cost by allowing the RFID readers and tags to function for a longer period of time before requiring charging or replacement of their batteries.

Claim (Index 15):
A method for transmitting information relating to radio frequency identification (\u201cRFID\u201d) in an RFID reader, comprising:\n obtaining location information from a global positioning system (\u201cGPS\u201d); calculating a current location of said RFID reader according to said location information; retrieving a plurality of active RF reading zones relating to said current location of said RFID reader from a storage location of said RFID reader; determining whether said current location of said RFID reader is within said at least one zone of said plurality of active RF reading zones; and switching at least a portion of components of said RFID reader into a sleep state to conserve power if said current location of said RFID reader is outside of any of said plurality of active RF reading zones.
