This modeling study estimated SAR in a head approaching a 13.56 MHz RFID HF reader, comparing hearing-implant users with non-users. The abstract reports that BAHA implants can increase localized SAR (10 g) versus non-users, up to 2.1× in a worst-case scenario, and that this increase is statistically higher than for…

This study reports implementation of a passive RFID system to passively track patient flow in a radiation therapy clinic using readers/antennae in linac vault areas. Across 4302 treatment fractions from 144 patients, the system achieved about 70% read reliability and enabled comparison of median in-vault treatment…

This engineering paper describes a system implementation for interoperation between a 915 MHz UHF RFID reader and a TCP/IP gateway device. The architecture uses wired communication between the TCP/IP device and RFID reader, and wireless ZigBee (IEEE 802.15.4) links to an end-device/coordinator. Web-based tests are…
