Abstract
Various arrangements for performing wireless sensor device activation are presented. A sensor device may be manufactured such that a function of the sensor device is disabled and the sensor device is activated for passive near-field communication (NFC). A housing of the sensor device may be sealed such that only wireless communication with the sensor device is available. An NFC carrier field and a wake message can be received from an activation device. In response to validating the wake message, a sensor device identifier may be transmitted by modulating the NFC carrier field and the disabled function of the sensor device may be enabled.
