 Influence of Metal at Back Surface
You must consider the influence of the mounting location when mounting RF Tags.
The communications range of an RF Tag may be reduced by the influence of the surrounding objects.
The amount that the communications range decreases will depend on the materials and shapes of the
surrounding objects. As reference data, this section shows the influence of metal at the back surface of
an RF Tag.
 Influence of Metal Objects
The following figure shows the percentage of decrease in the communications range when there is a
metal object at the back surface of an RF Tag.
The X axis gives the distance between the RF Tag and a metal plate. The Y axis shows the relative
communications range taking the communications range with no metal plate as 100% (i.e., it shows the
percentage of decrease in the communications range).
Material: Steel (thickness: 1.5 mm)
Shape: 295  295 mm
