ABSTRACT:
A radio-frequency identification (RF-ID) system including a master unit and a sub unit connected thereto by radio-communication, and used for identifying a moving article on which the sub unit is mounted. The master unit transmits a circularly polarized wave having two carrier components (CW1, CW2), and the sub unit, which does not include carrier generators and branching filters, is powered by a battery provided therein. The sub unit receives the circularly polarized wave, separates the two carrier components by a hybrid circuit, and transmits another circularly polarized wave base upon the received carrier component. The sub unit may be operated in response to a starting command from the main unit, and the main unit may have first and second detecting units separated by n.multidot..lambda.g/8, n: an odd integer, and .lambda.g: effective wave length, to eliminate the occurrence of null point phenomenon.
