between the label and the liner. The media is

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

made from the same materials and adhesives as

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

non-RFID labels. The outline of the transponder

through the label. All “smart” labels have

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

memory that can be read, and many have

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

memory that can be encoded.
