Dual Frequency for ILT? • There are applications where UHF works best and others where HF works best and the industry should resist attempts to force a one-size-fits-all solution. • The choice of technologies should not be based upon the product type submitted to the reader, not by application; the same receiving line will most likely not receive both pharmaceuticals (HF) and tires (UHF). • Dual tagging of items is NOT an option! • Novel antenna concepts, e.g. fractal antennas, may permit multi-frequency tags • People have a tendency to overestimate technology in the short term and underestimate it in the long term - W. Gates

ITU-TThe standardization work of ITU-T is carried out by the technical Study Groups (SGs) in which representatives of the ITU-T membership develop Recommendations (standards) for the various fields of international telecommunications. The SGs drive their work primarily in the form of study Questions. Each of these addresses technical studies in a particular area of telecommunication standardization. Each SG has a SG Chairman and a number of vice-chairmen appointed by the World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA).
