How many tag notification frames per channel will the RFID tag transmit?
Due to the nature of multicast traffic on 802.11 networks, it is generally good practice to increase the number of tag notification frames per channel. In a clean RF environment, APs receive tag updates and report them to their WLC, even if the tag is configured to send one tag notification frame per channel. In real life deployments, there is a high probability that a tag update is missed on a given AP due to RF noise or other activity. Missing a tag update on a nearby AP can lead to incorrect location calculations. Repeat the number of tag notification frames per channel to two or three, instead of the default one, to reduce the possibility of the tag update not to be heard by nearby APs. Consideration for tag battery life is also an important aspect of accuracy and tag notification frame interval and often a compromise must made. Best practice recommendations to track moving object is the use of motion detection tags. Configure a tag notification frame interval, that is, 3 to 5 minu
