Active RFID

Active RFID Systems for Real-Time Location and Long-Range Tracking in India

Active RFID systems use battery-powered tags that continuously broadcast signals, enabling real-time location tracking (RTLS) over distances of up to 100 metres or more — far beyond the range achievable with passive UHF RFID. Identium, a BIS certified, ISO certified, Made in India RFID manufacturer, offers active RFID products and systems for use cases including vehicle tracking in logistics yards, personnel safety monitoring in manufacturing plants, high-value asset tracking in hospitals, and container tracking in port and warehouse environments across India.

Unlike passive EPC Gen2 tags, active RFID tags can incorporate sensors for temperature, humidity, motion, and tamper detection, making them ideal for cold chain monitoring, pharmaceutical storage compliance, and industrial safety applications. Active readers and gateways are designed for both indoor zone-based positioning and outdoor GPS-augmented deployments, delivering location granularity suited to the specific operational needs of Indian logistics and manufacturing facilities.

Connect with Identium's active RFID specialists to evaluate whether an active RTLS or a passive UHF RFID system — or a hybrid of both — best fits your tracking and visibility requirements. Request a site assessment and solution proposal today.
