TurboAntenna
The TurboAntenna is the latest addition to the STARflex and STAR 3000 systems. It offers the functionality of an eNode with a single integrated phased array antenna.
The TurboAntenna is an RF transmitter, designed to excite all types of EPC UHF Gen 2 RFID tags within its designated RFID coverage area. It works in conjunction with either a STARflex or a STAR 3000 system. The STARflex provides DC power, control signal, and the RF signal to the TurboAntenna unit via coaxial cable.
The TurboAntenna adjusts the power level of the RF signal and feeds it to an integrated phased array antenna such that the maximum radiated power from the antenna is at or below the regulatory limit. Multiple TurboAntenna units can be daisy-chained together to cover the desired area.
