This document is applicable to new manufactured tags after publication of this document. This document aims to: - provide specification for RFID tag manufacturers to design and manufacture passive UHF RFID tags for the aeronautical industry; - identify required performances for UHF RFID tags in order to be read/written during ground operations only, while being subject to the global flight environment; - identify functional and environmental validation tests to be performed on passive UHF RFID tags with associated pass/fail criteria as well as associated test methods; - check functionalities and resistance to environment for airborne passive UHF RFID tags. This document does not apply to: - the reader (interrogator – readers). It will be addressed appropriately by individual applicants; - active RFID devices or battery assisted passive (BAP) RFID devices; - RFID tags designed to operate outside the 860 MHz to 960 MHz frequency range.
