RFID READER, RFID TAG, AND METHOD OF RECOGNIZING PLURALITY OF RFID TAGS
First Claim
1. A radio frequency identification (RFID) reader, comprising:
- a processor for processing a command for an RFID tag and a response from the RFID tag;
a modem for modulating the command from the processor or demodulating the response from the RFID;
an RF unit for transmitting the modulated command transferred from the mode to the RFID tag, or receiving the response from the RFID tag and transferring the response to the modem; and
a memory for storing a tag ID of the RFID tag read by the processor and managing recognized tag IDs according to groups.

Abstract
The RFID reader of an RFID system includes a processor for processing a command for the RFID tag and a response from the RFID tag, a modem for modulating the command from the processor or demodulating the response from the RFID, and an RF unit for transmitting the modulated command transferred from the modem to the RFID tag or receiving the response from the RFID tag and transferring the response to the modem. The RFID tag of the RFID system includes a power supply unit for generating energy using a radio wave received from the RFID reader, a receiver for demodulating a signal received from the RFID reader, a data processor for performing operation according to the signal demodulated by the receiver, and a transmitter for backscattering a signal from the data processor.

15. A method of recognizing a plurality of radio frequency identification (RFID) tags, comprising:
-
transmitting a group_select command to at least one of the RFID tags, the group_select command results in the RFID tag to select a group number of the RFID tag itself to the RFID tag; transmitting a wake_group command including an argument specifying a group number to the RFID tag; and performing an inventory round process together with the RFID tag belonging to a specific group of the RFID tags. - View Dependent Claims (16)

17. A method of recognizing a plurality of radio frequency identification (RFID) tags, comprising:
-
receiving a group_select command from an RFID reader and selecting a group number of the RFID tag on the basis of the group_select command; receiving a wake_group command including an argument specifying a group number to the RFID tag; determining whether or not the group number specified by the wake_group command and the group number of the RFID tag are identical; and disabling a backscattering function of the RFID tag when the specified group number and the group number of the RFID tag are not identical, and enabling the backscattering function of the RFID tag when the specified group number and the group number of the RFID tag are identical. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
