An RFID chip combined with an antenna and a transmission line builds a simple sensor module. For many applications it is sufficient to discover whether the RFID transponder can be activated or not. A status transition may change the reaction of the transponder depending on the length of the transmission line and its loading. A second approach allows measuring the exact position of a tagged object along a line. User benefits of the RFID technology are its high sensitivity for activation and the possibility to spatially separate the transmission and measurement locations. This offers a new economic all-purpose opportunity for object monitoring and state control without any power consumption.","PeriodicalId":253369,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE International Conference on RFID-Technologies and Applications (RFID-TA)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131113112","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
