ITPEC IP April 2019 — Question 89 of 100
RFID can identify an electronic tag attached to a parcel and link it to shipping-history information. A reader communicates with the tag by radio, often without direct line of sight, enabling automated tracking at logistics checkpoints.
Answer (d)
Why not others:
- remote medical care uses communication networks and audiovisual systems
- traditional ATM cards use magnetic stripes or contact/contactless card technologies in a banking system, but this description does not identify RFID tracking
- option (c) explicitly uses printed barcodes rather than radio tags
Key rule: RFID identifies tagged objects through radio communication; barcodes require optical reading of printed patterns.
