Sensors NFC & RFID

Hi,

I am a researcher working on RFID. i recently purchased Sparkfun M6e nano reader. I am interfacing it with the arduino UNO to use it. Can I know which antenna do you suggest with the reader to have a good read range. Since am using it with the arduino the input is only 5 V. Kindly help

This may be overkill, but I recommend getting these 3 things and being able to read ~16 ft range

We’re out of stock of a lot of other options, but read through this https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/si … al-antenna for specs if you want to purchase something smaller

Hi,

Thank you for your suggestion on the antenna. Also I am planning to build a network of RFID readers together to ensure an area is covered. So is it possible to connect RFID readers together or is it possible to establish a wireless communication between RFID readers. Kindly help to clarify
