How much time does an RFID wait between frame transmissions?
When transmitting frames or beaconing, an Aeroscount RFID tag waits for a preconfigured amount of time between its transmissions. This waiting time can be of 128, 256 or 512 milliseconds and is known as “Message Repetition Interval”. If 512 msec is configured and the tag is sending one beacon per channel, then the RFID tag finishes a complete iteration within approximately 1.5 seconds. If two frames are sent per channel with the same “Message Repetition Interval”, then the tag finishes a complete iteration within 3 seconds. The RFID tag transmits the configured amount of frames on a specific channel and then moves to the next channel to do the same routine. The time that separates each frame transmission is known as “Message Repetition Interval”. It is crucial for the WLC to receive tag updates from all contributing APs on channels 1,6, and 11 before it sends this data through NMSP to the MSE. The WLC waits for a configurable amount of time, called the Aggregation Window, before it sen
