Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method of recognizing whether a transponder of an RFID system, comprising a reading device and the transponder, is present in a boundary region, wherein a comparison is made with at least one threshold value. In accordance with the invention a bit error rate of signals transmitted between the transponder and the reading device is determined and the at least one threshold value comprises a predefined bit error rate for signals transmitted between the transponder and the reading device. The invention further relates to an RFID system and to a safety switch.
