RFID Vehicle Tracking System

Identium recommends a RFID vehicle tracking system that provides a complete solution of VehicleTrack.

Developing RFID vehicle tracking systems can be challenging because of the need for the system to deal with moving tags and tags on metal vehicles.Identium has developed systems for many leading operators and can advise on the right combination of tags and readers for your particular requirements.

Choosing Tags and Readers for Vehicle Tracking in India

A dependable RFID vehicle tracking system in India begins with matching the tag to the mounting surface and the read moment. Windshield tags read cleanly through glass and suit cars and light commercial vehicles, while on-metal (anti-metal) UHF tags handle chassis, tankers, and container trucks where an ordinary label would detune against metal. For vehicles moving through a gate, tag orientation and antenna placement often matter more than raw range — a well-aimed circularly polarised antenna pair typically reads a passive UHF tag up to roughly 10-15 metres, though vehicle speed, weather, and mounting all affect results.

Our fixed gate readers run the Impinj R2000 chipset at up to 33 dBm with an inbuilt relay, so a single unit can trigger a boom barrier or bollard without an external controller. Because Identium reader and antenna hardware is WPC-approved for the delicensed 865-867 MHz band and BIS certified, deployments stay compliant across Indian sites. Many operators find the approach intuitive since it mirrors the FASTag principle drivers already know. Send us your gate width, vehicle mix, and peak hourly throughput, and we can specify the tags, readers, and antenna layout suited to the site.

RFID for Mines, Quarries and Weighbridge Automation

Beyond gates and parking, RFID vehicle tracking is increasingly specified in mining, quarrying and bulk-material plants, where the pain point is the weighbridge queue and the paperwork around it. Each tipper or dumper carries a rugged on-metal UHF tag or a tamper-evident windshield tag; a fixed reader at the weighbridge identifies the vehicle automatically as it stops, so the weighing software can pull up the vehicle, contractor and material record without an operator keying in a number plate. Tare and gross weights are then logged against a verified vehicle identity, which tightens reconciliation of trips and tonnage and reduces disputes with transport contractors. The same tags work at plant entry, loading points and dispatch gates, giving a single trip record from pit to dispatch. Tag choice matters in this environment — dust, vibration and washdown call for sealed hard tags rather than paper labels — and read points need antennas aimed for stationary or slow-moving vehicles. If you are tendering for weighbridge or mine-vehicle automation, share the vehicle count, weighbridge layout and your weighing software and we will specify the tags and readers.

Frequently asked questions

How does an RFID vehicle tracking system work in India?

A UHF tag is fitted to each vehicle — a windshield tag behind the glass or an on-metal tag on the body. As the vehicle passes a gate, a fixed reader and antenna capture the tag's unique EPC, log the entry or exit, and can trigger a boom barrier via the reader's inbuilt relay. Identium hardware operates on India's delicensed 865-867 MHz UHF band, so it reads reliably without a separate radio licence.

Which RFID tag is best for vehicle tracking — windshield or on-metal?

It depends on the vehicle. Windshield tags read through glass and are ideal for cars, vans, and buses, and are tamper-evident once fixed. On-metal (anti-metal) UHF tags are made for chassis, tankers, and metal-bodied trucks where a standard label would detune. For mixed fleets, many sites use both. Identium can advise based on your vehicle types and mounting points.

What read range can I expect at a vehicle gate?

For passive UHF, a fixed reader with well-positioned antennas typically reads up to about 10-15 metres, but effective range at a gate is usually shorter and depends on vehicle speed, tag orientation, mounting surface, and weather. For a moving-vehicle lane, correct antenna aim and tag placement matter more than maximum range. We tune the setup to your gate width and throughput.

Is Identium's RFID vehicle tracking hardware compliant for use in India?

Yes. Identium is BIS certified, and our UHF readers and antennas are WPC-approved for India's delicensed 865-867 MHz band. Every unit is tested in-house before dispatch, and we manufacture in New Delhi, sell across India, and export.

How is RFID vehicle tracking different from GPS tracking?

RFID tracks vehicles at fixed points — gates, weighbridges, parking entries — using low-cost passive tags and no per-vehicle subscription, which is well suited to controlled premises. GPS tracks continuous location anywhere but needs a powered device and connectivity per vehicle. Many operators combine both.
