Abstract
Two different frequencies are generated within an interrogation zone. The receiver portion of the system determines the presence of a predetermined marker tag within the interrogation zone by the sensing and processing of a ratio of sideband signals generated by the interaction of the two different frequencies and the predetermined marker tag. The system is greatly immuned to false alarms due to the method of processing the sensed sideband signals. Falsely generated signals are nulled and subtracted out in the receiver portion of the detection system.
