The harmonic tag includes a ring resonator circuit and may include a first ring microstrip disposed on a first side of a first dielectric substrate, a microstrip feedline spaced apart from and adjacent to the first ring microstrip and a ground plane disposed opposite the first ring microstrip and the microstrip feedline on a second side of the first dielectric substrate. The ring resonator circuit is tuned to resonate at an interrogation frequency. A dipole antenna circuit may include a dipole microstrip electrically coupled to the microstrip feedline through a first diode. The first diode causes the dipole microstrip to transmit a harmonic signal having a harmonic frequency twice the interrogation frequency.
