Abstract
A radio tag is attached to a specified position of an outer side surface of a case. A member is arranged on an inner side opposing to the radio tag to form a surface substantially parallel to the surface to which the radio tag is attached by the member. Further, a metal reflector is attached on the surface. Electromagnetic waves emitted from outside are supplied to the radio tag and the electromagnetic waves have not consumed by the radio tag are reflected from the reflector to be supplied again to the radio tag.
