Overview

The RFID-specific air interface standard for 13.56 MHz (HF). Defines multiple modes of operation that encompass the communication protocols used by ISO 14443 (proximity) and ISO 15693 (vicinity) tags. Covers modulation, coding, anti-collision, and data exchange at the HF frequency.

Why it matters for RFID

The umbrella standard for all HF RFID communication at 13.56 MHz. While ISO 14443 and ISO 15693 define specific card types, ISO 18000-3 is the RFID item-management standard that references both.
