摘要:
An encoded information reading terminal can comprise a microprocessor, a memory communicatively coupled to the microprocessor, a radio frequency identifier (RFID) reading device, and two antennas having substantially different spatial orientation. A switching circuit can be configured to alternatively electrically couple one of the antennas to the RFID reading device.

摘要:
A data decoding system that includes a server-side proxy component and at least two back-end computers, where the server-side proxy component is configured, when it receives a decoding request from a client, to select a back-end computer to forward the decoding request to, based on either a pre-defined rule, load estimates for the at least two computers, estimated network throughputs across network paths to the two computers. In response to receiving this request, the back-end computer that is selected is configured to decode the request, which is an image of decodable indicia, by locating the decodable indicia within the image and decoding it into a decoded message. The decodable indicia was provided by a raw image byte stream, a compressed image byte stream, or a partial compressed image byte stream.

An encoded information reading (EIR) system can comprise a microprocessor, a memory, and at least one RFID reading device, all communicatively coupled to a system bus. The EIR system can further comprise two or more external antennas electrically coupled to a multiplexing circuit. The multiplexing circuit can be configured to electrically couple each antenna to the RFID reading device by using a time division method or a frequency division method. The external antennas can be disposed according to a spatial pattern configured to provide a spatially continuous RFID signal reception within a pre-defined area or volume. The antennas can be configured to receive RFID signals from a plurality of RFID tags attached to a plurality of items and disposed within a radio frequency range of the antennas. The EIR system can be configured to store in its memory a plurality of responses received from the plurality of RFID tags.

A radio frequency identifier (RFID) reading terminal can comprise a microprocessor, a memory, and an RFID reading device including a directional antenna. The RFID reading device can be configured to output raw message data containing an encoded message and/or output decoded message data corresponding to an encoded message. The RFID reading terminal can further comprise an aiming light source configured to emit aiming light, and at least one aiming lens configured to direct the aiming light onto a target to produce a visible aiming pattern at least partially contained within a projection onto the target of a coverage shape of the RF signal emitted by the directional antenna.
