TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER LICENSING OPPORTUNITY: RFID Range Extension and Priority Data Forwarding (MSC-TOPS-128)
NATIONAL AERONAUTICS AND SPACE ADMINISTRATION
About this opportunity
NASA�s Technology Transfer Program solicits inquiries from companies interested in obtaining license rights to commercialize, manufacture and market the following technology. License rights may be issued on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis and may include specific fields of use. NASA provides no funding in conjunction with these potential licenses. THE TECHNOLOGY: Innovators at NASA Johnson Space Center have developed an adaptable Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) system that optimizes transmission for priority data as targets move in and out of passive coverage areas. The method extends the range, and reduces data latency, of ultra-low power battery-assisted passive (BAP) RFID sensor tags, improving previously developed store-and-forward techniques to support autonomous operations i...
