Abstract
Response parameters for a population of RFID tags present in an inventory space are determined by (a) continuously scanning the inventory space to interrogate the population of RFID tags in the inventory space and receiving responses from multiple RFID tags within the population, (b) after multiple responses have been received from a specific RFID tag within the population, determining response times for the specific RFID tag corresponding to time periods between sequential ones of the multiple responses from the specific RFID tag, (c) calculating a maximum acceptable response time based at least in part on the response times determined in step (b), and (d) recording a response interval data set including one or more of the response times determined in step (b) and the maximum acceptable response time calculated in step (c).
