radio frequency automatic identification (RFID)

A location and identification system using radio frequency signals that employs a transceiver, antenna and tag associated with a product and location to transmit data. The systems do not require a direct line of sight or contact and can transmit at high speed, but are more costly than other data collection technologies such as bar coding. RFID systems are often used for inventory tracking in large warehouse and distribution center facilities.
