Methods for Robust Communication in Ultra Wideband (UWB) Radiofrequency Identification (RFID)

The system Ultra Wide Band (UWB) - RFID is made by a reader that interrogates multiple tags (passive or semi-passive) in the vicinity by transmitting a query signal. The tags respond to reader via backscatter modulation that is to vary the load as a function of the antenna that the tag sends the rea...
