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 47):
A method of controlling power consumption of a radio frequency identification (\u201cRFID\u201d) system by an RFID application, The RFID system comprising an RFID reader communicatively coupled to a plurality of tags, the RFID reader comprising a battery, the plurality of tags comprising a set of ultra high frequency (UHF) tags and a set of low frequency (LF) tags, the RFID application capable of utilizing data from either UHF tags or LF tags, the method comprising:\n determining a battery level of the RFID reader; when the battery level is below a predetermined threshold, reading data from the active LF tags and placing the UHF tags into a sleep state; when the battery level is not below the predetermined threshold, reading data from the passive UHF tags and placing the LF tags into a sleep state; and sending the data read from the tags to the RFID application.
