An identification system including a transmitter, a receiver, a decoding subsystem, and a passive transponder identifier. One passive transponder identifier of the invention is a surface acoustic wave device provided with pad means for applying and removing pressure on a substrate of the device at preselected locations. A second identifier of the invention is a microacoustic shear bulk wave device. The passive transponder identifiers are programmed to produce a characteristic coded electronic reply in response to an electromagnetic signal interrogation.
