Full Title or Meme
There are a large number of radios on a Smartphone. This wiki looks at those that are not part of the cellular network.
Context
Terminology
- RF = Radio Frequency
- HF = High Frequency
- UHF = Ultra High Frequency
- IR = Infrared
- Light is even higher, but that is handled by the camera and not radios
- Exciter = an antenna that is designed to send energy to a passive RFID tag
Existing Bands
RFID
RF Identifier
- Passive = no battery, typically a tag applied to a inventory item - read range has been 12-15 originally now 30+ feet
- Battery Assisted Passive = typically a monitored sensor that is polled by RF
- Active = has batter and dual antenna - read range 300 feet
- UHF = 300 MHz to 3 GHz
- UHF Gen2 = 860 to 960 MHz
NFC
Near Field Communications
- Apple Pay
- Android Pay
- Smart card with build in anttenna
- 13.56 MHz
BLE
Bluetooth low energy + battery powered
- Also excited by a stationary antenna that causes the smartphone to respond
- Needs to have an app on a smartphone that is powered up and has bluetooth enabled that responds to the message with a UUID
- Operations at 2.4 GHz at about 70 meters between device and anttenna.
WiFi
Generally used for local internet connections. Can also be enabled by one of the above to send a UUID.
