Ret Bit Rate (RFID)

Menu Path: MeasSetup > RFID Demod Properties > Format tab

Default:  40 kBits/Sec (See RFID Standard Setups/Presets Table)

Range:  100 bps to 1 Mbits/Sec

The Ret Bit Rate parameter sets the Tag-to-Interrogator bit rate expected by the demodulation software.

Selecting the ASK Auto Bit Rate / Tari checkbox allows the measurement software to adjust the expected bit rate (displayed in the Bit Rate and Tariboxes) by analyzing the input data. Clearing the checkbox turns off the automatic adjustment feature and causes the demodulation software to use the values entered and displayed in the Bit Rate and Tari boxes.

The value in the Ret Bit Rate text box sets the bit rate used by the RFID demodulation software. The bit rate value is specified (rather than the symbol rate) because the symbol rate can vary depending on the modulation scheme.

The Sym Rate area (beneath the Bit Rate and Tari boxes) displays the approximate symbol rate defined by the protocol, the format, and the Bit Rate or Tari setting.
