The working  principle of RFID is actually not complex, once the tag into the working area of card reader, card reader can read the data of tag by magnetic field generated by the antenna.
 
According to the specific use of different scene, we can use different types of tags, different types of tags have different range :

In the process of actual using, we can firstly use the reader to read the ID of different tags.

After connection, we use the serial debugging tool to open Serial Dongle corresponding Serial port, the baud rate is set to 19200, then send reading card order as HEX format : AA BB 02 20 22 (totally 5 bytes) :
 But  If there are cards within the working area of RFID module, RFID module red LED will be lighted, at the same time return order as HEX format through serial port : AA BB 06 20 5E 97 25 C7 0D (9 byte), and then  5E 97 25 C7 is the tag ID. Different tags returns different ID value, and we just distinguish different objests through different ID value.
 
When geting the corresponding tags ID value, then we can recognize on Arduino, about the hardware connection, we still use the COM interface of Arduino sensor shield to connect RFID mdule with Arduino.

 

The corresponding Arduino code shown as below, the test tag ID is 5E 97 25 C7, when Arduino detected the corresponding tag, will light the LED on 13 digital I/O port of Arduino, and last for 1 second :

Test Code Start :

int val = 0;
int ledPin = 13;
int status = 0;
unsigned char searchCMD[] = {0xAA, 0xBB,0x02, 0x20, 0x22};
unsigned char searchRES[4];

void setup()
{
  Serial.begin(19200);
  pinMode(13, OUTPUT);
}

int searchCard()
{
  Serial.write(searchCMD, 5);
  delay(100);
  status = 0;
  while(true) {
    if (Serial.available() > 0) {
      val = Serial.read();
     
      switch (status) {
        case 0:  // parse 0xAA
          if (val == 0xAA) status = 1;
          break;
        case 1: // parse 0xBB
          if (val == 0xBB) status = 2;
          else return -1;
          break;
        case 2:
          if (val == 0x06) status = 3;
          else return -1;
          break;
        case 3:
          if (val == 0x20) status = 4;
          else return -1;
          break;
        case 4:
        case 5:
        case 6:
        case 7:
          searchRES[status - 4] = val;
          status ++;
          break;
        case 8:
          return 0; // read successfully
          break;
        default:
          return -1;
          break;
      }
     
    }
  }
}

void loop()
{
  if (searchCard() != -1) {
    if (searchRES[0] == 0x5E && searchRES[1] == 0x97 && searchRES[2] == 0x25 && searchRES[3] == 0xC7) {
      digitalWrite(13, HIGH);
      delay(1000);
      digitalWrite(13, LOW);
      delay(1000);
    }
  }
}
