Identifying system of overlapped tag
An identifying system for overlapped tags, wherein one of the tags, e.g., a tag to be appended to an article, has an antenna coil and a radio frequency identification device (RFID) connected to the antenna coil. Two or more resonance capacitors are connected in parallel to each other and in parallel to the antenna coil and two or more switches electrically connect the two or more resonance capacitors to the antenna coil and to the RFID. A control circuit is configured to operate on-off controls of the two or more switches to change a resonance frequency of the identifying system.
1. An identifying system for overlapped tags, wherein one of said tags comprises:
an antenna coil;
a radio frequency identification device (RFID) connected to the antenna coil;
two or more resonance capacitors connected in parallel to each other and connected in parallel to the antenna coil;
two or more switches that electrically connect the two or more resonance capacitors to the antenna coil and to the RFID; and
a control circuit configured to operate on-off controls of the two or more switches to change a resonance frequency of the identifying system.
2. An identifying system for overlapped tags, wherein one of said tags comprises:
an antenna coil;
a radio frequency identification device (RFID) connected to the antenna coil;
at least one resonance capacitor disposed in the RFID;
two or more leads having first ends connected to a winding of the antenna coil at predetermined intervals on the winding and second ends connected to the RFID;
two or more switches formed in the two or more leads, respectively, that electrically connect the antenna coil and the RFID through the two or more leads; and
a control circuit configured to alternately close the two or more switches to change a resonance frequency of a resonance circuit including the antenna coil and said at least one resonance capacitor.
3. An identifying system for overlapped tags, wherein one of said tags comprises:
