Abstract
In embodiments of the present invention improved capabilities are described for a system of information RFID tagging facilities comprising a first radio frequency (RF) tag, a second RF tag, and a third RF tag, wherein the first RF tag, the second RF tag, and the third RF tag are adapted to at least in part operate using energy received from an RF signal, wherein: (i) at least one of the first RF tag and the second RF tag receives an RF signal from an RF device, (ii) the first RF tag transmits data to the second RF tag, and (iii) the second RF tag stores the transmitted data from the first RF tag in a memory on the second RF tag, wherein the third RF tag is out of range of the RF signal from the RF device, and the data transferred from the first RF tag to the second RF tag is subsequently relayed from the second RF tag to the third RF tag.
