Parking systems using active RFID technology
Parking systems using active RFID technology

Unlike systems based on passive RFID, Active RFID systems operate with a larger reading range, thanks to the built-in battery transponder increasing its transmission power. Increased range in this case is paid for by shorter operating time and a larger size of the transponder itself, but in some applications this approach is crucial.
