    Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) refers to a wireless system comprised of two components: Tags and readers. Tags use radio waves to communicate their identity and a range of information from one serial number to several pages of data to nearby readers. The reader is a device that has one or more antennas that emit radio waves and receive signals back from the RFID tag. (USFDA, 2014)
