ABSTRACT:
A Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) device according to one embodiment of the present invention includes a first microstrip antenna comprising a microstrip positioned towards a first side of the device, and a Radio Frequency—(RF-)reflective back plane spaced from the microstrip of the first microstrip antenna; a second microstrip antenna comprising a microstrip positioned farther from the first side of the device than the microstrip of the first microstrip antenna, and an RF-reflective back plane spaced from the microstrip of the second microstrip antenna; and circuitry for receiving signals from the first and second microstrip antennas, wherein the first and second microstrip antennas are each independently coupled to the circuitry.
