4.2.2 RF Subsystem
The R2000 subsystem (aka “RF Circuitry”) is defined as the Arm* M4 (aka Microcontroller),
R2000/RFID transceiver (aka “Indy Reader Chip”), power amplifier, directional coupler, 4-
port antenna switch and associated matching components. The Intel® RSP Sensor uses an
internal dual linear antenna that only requires two of the four ports. The Intel® RSP H1000
brings out all four of the antenna ports to external R-SMA connectors allowing the System
Integrator to use antennas that are not collocated with the Intel® RSP H1000 reader. Below
is a block diagram of the Impinj* R2000 Sub-System.

5.0 System Description
A complete end-to-end Inventory Management solution might look something like the
figure below. One or more Sensors sending raw data to a Gateway that processes the raw
data and creates meaningful events, which are sent to an Inventory Management
Application that can exist locally or in the Cloud.
5.1 Data Flow
From a data flow perspective, the Sensor interrogates the RFID tag population within its
field of view and passes information regarding the tags as well as information from other
various on-board sensors to the Gateway. The Gateway aggregates this Sensor data and
generates inventory events, alerts, and system status notifications available for
consumption on an upstream channel to applications running in a customer’s cloud
infrastructure. The figure below illustrates the flow of data and control within the system.

5.2 Applications
Customers may utilize their own infrastructure for applications that ingest the events from
the Gateway allowing them to determine item identification, location, movement and
status. CUSTOMERS ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR OWN CLOUD
INFRASTRUCTURE AND APPLICATIONS, INCLUDING FOR IDENTIFYING AND
IMPLEMENTING THE APPROPRIATE LEVEL OF SECURITY FOR THE DATA COLLECTED VIA
THE DEVICES.
5.3 Gateway
The Gateway with Intel® RSP SW toolkit performs sensor control, sensor management,
sensor data aggregation, data processing, event generation and event management all over
a secure data channel. It also supports configuration and management from a local
interface. CUSTOMERS ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR CONFIGURING THEIR MQTT
BROKER FOR THE APPROPRIATE LEVEL OF SECURITY FOR THE DATA COLLECTED VIA
THE DEVICES.
5.4 Intel® RFID Sensor Platform (Intel® RSP)
The Intel® RSP devices provide the ability to remotely and securely command, control,
status, and data collection via Ethernet. Data from RFID tag reads as well as data from other
on-board sensors is published to an MQTT broker. The data API is based on JSON RPC
commands, responses and indications. JSON-RPC is a text based, stateless, lightweight
remote procedure call (RPC) protocol.
