CAN/CSA-ISO/IEC TR 18047-3:05 (R2010)

This National Standard of Canada is equivalent to International Standard ISO/IEC TR 18047-3:2004. 1 Scope This part of ISO/IEC TR 18047 defines test methods for determining the conformance of radio frequency identification devices (tags and interrogators) for item management with the specifications given in the corresponding part of ISO/IEC 18000, but does not apply to the testing of conformity with regulatory or similar requirements. The test methods require only that the mandatory functions, and any optional functions which are implemented, be verified. This may, in appropriate circumstances, be supplemented by further, applicationspecific functionality criteria that are not available in the general case. This part of ISO/IEC TR 18047 includes the following interrogator and tag conformance parameters: - mode-specific conformance parameters including nominal values and tolerances; and - parameters that apply directly affecting system functionality and inter-operability. This part of ISO/IEC TR 18047 does not include the following: - parameters that are already included in regulatory test requirements; and - high-level data encoding conformance test parameters (these are specified in ISO/IEC 15962). Clause 5 describes all necessary conformance tests, while clause 5.3 applies to Mode 1 products only and clause 5.4 applies to Mode 2 products only.
