An electronic label tag () and electronic label tag system () wherein electronic label tag () comprises machine readable identifier module, communication module for receiving product related information, attachment means for attaching the electronic label tag () to product, and display for displaying product related information. The machine readable identifier module of the electronic label tag () is configured to activate the communication module and/or display in response to a command received by the machine readable identifier module.

Electronic label tag and electronic label tag system

A method for sorting waste, in which waste or recyclable material intended for sorting is brought in waste bags to a sorting apparatus, which includes a conveyor, from which the waste bags belonging to different waste components are separated from each other by guiding them into the containers according to the waste components or to further processing. A waste bag, an identifier arranged in connection with it and/or the content of the waste bag is identified with a sensor system, which includes a number of sensors monitoring different properties, which sensors essentially simultaneously read and/or identify a waste bag, an identifier arranged in connection with it and/or the content of the waste bag when the waste bag is transferred on the conveyor via the reading area of the sensors, and in which method on the basis of information coming from the sensors the waste bags are sorted into different waste components using one or more handling devices of the sorting apparatus. The invention also relates to an apparatus and to a system.

An arrangement for reducing interference in a wireless electronic shelf label (ESL) () having a layered structure the ESL comprising: a display layer () comprising display material, a circuit board () with a backplane material structure and an antenna (), and a circuit board arrangement with control electronics for controlling the operation of the label, such as the display and the radio communication, and a resilient layer having a space for a rigid component, such as a battery, wherein said resilient layer is arranged to provide a substantially even total thickness of said label (), wherein the radio communication control further comprises means for radio frequency communication via modulated backscatter, wherein the arrangement is ring resonator arrangement isolating the ESL from the electrically conducting shelf arranged on the antenna circuit board, the ring resonator arrangement comprising a plurality of ring resonators () that are electrically isolated from the antenna and arranged at least on the side nearest the shelf when the ESL is attached to the shelf.

Arrangement for reducing interference in an electronic shelf label

A method and system for an electronic price label system comprising at least a base station and a plurality of electronic labels for transferring information between the base station and electronic labels. The method comprises transmitting a first message from base stationto a plurality of electronic labels, the first message comprising at least identification information of one electronic label, receiving the first message at the electronic label, recognizing the identification information in the first transmitted message by the electronic label, transmitting a second message from the base stationto the electronic label, receiving the second message and sending an acknowledgement message to the second message from electronic labelwith a modulation frequency from a certain frequency range, and searching the acknowledgement message from a predefined frequency range at the base station

Electronic price label system

Electronic price label system and method for transferring information in an electronic price label system, the electronic price label system includes at least one base station and a plurality of electronic labels for transferring information between the base station and electronic labels. The base station(s) and the electronic labels includes at least communication member. The method includes sending first message from base station to electronic label using a first frequency band, after sending the first message, sending a second message from base station to electronic label using second frequency band, and sending a third message from electronic label to base station using a second frequency band.

Transferring of information in electronic price label systems

An arrangement for reducing unwanted effects of spurious signals from interference sources in telecommunications at radio frequencies. A communication unit transmits and receives information at radio frequency. Receivers receive the radio signals from the communication unit and for reflecting radio signals back. A control unit is adapted at least to switch the transmitter or receiver of the communication unit off substantially at the frequency of the spurious signals.
