D05: Trends in RFID, from Identification to sensing

Tuesday, August 19  09:40-12:00,  Room #21

RadioFrequency Identification (RFID) is a relevant technology based on communication and monitoring by means of reflected electromagnetic waves. Nowadays it has thousands of applications in numerous professional domains and more and more in our every day life. The concepts and technologies behind RFID are rapidly evolving from Identification to sensing capabilities, which allow the emergence of cognitive devices and systems. This session should attract papers on the design of advanced RFID systems and devices and the new ideas and concepts in this very fruitful domain of radioscience. It should cover the main aspects of physics and technology behind RFID systems. A special attention will be given to the evolution of this identification passive technology to passive sensing capabilities and energy efficiency.
