Radio frequency identification enabled mirrors

1. A self-declaring system for a vehicle, comprising:

a radio frequency identified (RFID) enabled mirror configured to communicate with at least one RFID reader; and

at least one processor communicatively coupled to the RFID-enabled mirror and configured to:

receive data of from one or more sensors, wherein the data is indicative of conditions of an environment corresponding to the vehicle;

determine an operation state of the RFID-enabled mirror from a plurality of operation states based on at least the received data; and

communicate with the at least one reader via the determined operation state of the mirror.

2. The self-declaring system of claim 1 , wherein the RFID-enabled mirror comprises a reflective layer and an RFID chip, wherein at least a portion of the reflective layer is removed to form an antenna.

3. The self-declaring system of claim 2 , wherein the antenna is formed via one of selective demetallization and selective metallization.

4. The self-declaring system of claim 3 , wherein the reflective layer comprises at least one layer of metallic material, wherein at least one portion of the reflective layer is removed to form the antenna from a remaining portion of the reflective layer and a dielectric coating is applied to the mirror where the reflective layer was removed.

5. The self-declaring system of claim 3 , wherein the reflective layer comprises a dielectric coating, wherein at least one portion of the reflective layer is removed and a metallic material is applied to the mirror where the reflective layer was removed to form a booster antenna.

6. The self-declaring system of claim 2 , wherein the RFID chip is coupled to the antenna via one of inductive coupling and capacitive coupling.

7. The self-declaring system of claim 2 , wherein the RFID chip is configured to operate at multiple frequencies.

8. The self-declaring system of claim 7 , wherein the antenna is configured to resonate at a first frequency band.

9. The self-declaring system of claim 8 , wherein the antenna is configured to resonate at a second frequency band.

10. The self-declaring system of claim 9 , wherein the first frequency band is a high-frequency band and the second frequency band is an ultra-high frequency band.

11. The self-declaring system of claim 1 , wherein the RFID-enabled mirror comprises:

a plurality of dielectric sections disposed on a plane, and

an antenna disposed on the plane and between the plurality of dielectric sections.

12. The self-declaring system of claim 1 , wherein the data includes data collected by one or more of the following: a motion sensor, infrared (IR) sensor, and image sensor.

13. The self-declaring system of claim 1 , further comprising a switch adapted to control the operational state of the mirror.

14. The self-declaring system of claim 1 , wherein the determined operation state of the mirror includes an activated state and a deactivated state.

15. The self-declaring system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to determine occupancy data based in part on the received data, wherein the occupancy data includes a determination of a number of occupants in the vehicle and whether the number of occupants in the vehicle exceeds a predetermined threshold number of occupants.

16. The self-declaring system of claim 15 , wherein the determined operational state of the mirror corresponds to the number of occupants in a vehicle.

17. The self-declaring system of claim 1 , wherein the mirror comprises one of a rearview mirror and a side view mirror.
