Abstract

See full text

A RFID-integrated indicia reading device and methods with increased read range via mode detection is provided. The device comprises an imaging assembly configured to capture two-dimensional image data appearing in a first field of view; an antenna assembly including at least one antenna element, being arranged proximate to the imaging assembly within a housing; and, a controller, coupled to the imaging and antenna assemblies, configured to determine a presentation operating mode of the device and a handheld operating mode of the device. The presentation operating mode is indicative of the device being positioned in a cradle, and the handheld operating mode is indicative of the device being held by and positioned in front of a user. The controller, in response to determining the device is in handheld operating mode, increases a transmit power of the antenna element, which generates backward energy that reflects from the user and increases a forward read range of the device.
