Abstract
Labels (E) are identified by an interrogating system ( ) in the order of their arrival in an interrogation field ( ), which initializes and starts up a time counter ( ) operated so as to prioritize the oldest label during identification. This prevents labels (E) passing through the interrogation field ( ) without being able to transmit their identification code.
