METHOD OF REMOTE POWERING AND DETECTING MULTIPLE UWB PASSIVE TAGS IN AN RFID SYSTEM

摘要

A new Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), tracking, powering apparatus/system and method using coded Ultra-wideband (UWB) signaling is introduced. The proposed hardware and techniques disclosed herein utilize a plurality of passive UWB transponders in a field of an RFID-radar system. The radar system itself enables multiple passive tags to be remotely powered (activated) at about the same time frame via predetermined frequency UWB pulsed formats. Once such tags are in an activated state, an UWB radar transmits specific 'interrogating codes' to put predetermined tags in an awakened status. Such predetermined tags can then communicate by a unique 'response code' so as to be detected by an UWB system using radar methods.
