Technology

Conformance Testing

• Foundational Test!

• Good predictor for device performance!

- 3 -

• Protocols: 6C, TDM, 6B/SeGO

• Applicable to tag and reader

• Test radio and commands/parameters

• Interference avoidance, memory reads and writes …and many other tests

• Strict tolerances (for wave masks, response times)

Technology

Standardized Tag Data Sheet ….based on GS1 Tag Performance Parameters Test Methodology

• Similar to new car window sticker

• Allows you to objectively compare tags

Innovation

Simulated Toll Testing (STT) Field Testing 1. Focus on edge test cases (such as stop-go) that can not be

simulated in a lab and migrate volume testing to a lab.

3. Evaluate tags based on performance (# of handshakes) rather then # of failures • Use sample based statistical models and reference

readers and/or tags • 300 runs needed to determine, with 99% probability,

that new tag performance is identical to reference tag

2. Ideal for volume testing for basic test cases • Based on Confidence Interval that at 80%

requires over 5514 runs with 3 failures • Tests for failures (no handshakes)

Benefits • Proven correlation to ORT • 1-lane STT available now, 3-lane in plans • Can do 100+mph test cases • Cheaper, safer, repeatable, available 24x7

Test Type Test Types & Notes

Regulatory FCC Part 15, 90

Environmental Temperature, Humidity, Vibration…

Conformance Automated test tools for ISO 18000-63, Part C, B , TDM Specifications

Tag Data Sheet Automated test tool based on GS1 Tag Performance Parameter Test Methodology

Performance (Lab) STT -Simulated Toll Test

• A surrogate for field testing (for some test cases, volume) • Multi-protocol tags and readers: 6C,TDM, 6B/SeGO, T21 • Speed 5 - 100mph+ • Application software that controls testing and captures results

Performance (Field) • Multi-protocol tags and readers: 6C, TDM, 6B/SeGO, T21 • Multi-lane, speed 5 - 85mph • Application software that controls testing and captures results

Testing Helps Make Right Decision
