Abstract
A transponder arrangement includes a flexible substrate having a first portion configured to engage a first structure and a second portion configured to engage a second structure, and a transponder integrated circuit (IC). Detection wiring is disposed on the first portion of the flexible substrate and coupled to the transponder IC, and an antenna disposed on the second portion of the flexible substrate and coupled to the transponder IC. The transponder IC is configured to generate an RF data signal that encodes different data values in response to the antenna resonating and different electricity levels on the detection wiring.
