Abstract
A method includes transmitting, by a radiofrequency identification (RFID) reader device, a first electromagnetic radiation at a first polarization to a scan area and second electromagnetic radiation at a second polarization to the scan area. Re-radiated first electromagnetic radiation is received from an RFID tag located in the scan area at the first polarization. Re-radiated second electromagnetic radiation is received from the RFID tag at the second polarization. A radar image is generated based on the first and second re-radiated electromagnetic radiation. One or more items of information encoded in one or more microstructure elements located on the RFID tag are decoded based on the generated radar image. An RFID reader device and an RFID system are also disclosed.
