RFID barcode and RFID barcode reading system

Abstract

A radio frequency identification (RFID) barcode is provided. The RFID barcode includes a plurality of sets of conductive strips and a plurality of inductors, wherein each of the plurality of sets of conductive strips respectively includes a plurality of conductive strips separated by at least one gap, and each of the plurality of inductors is disposed in the at least one gap of a corresponding set of conductive strips and connects two of the plurality of conductive strips of the corresponding set of conductive strips. The sets of conductive strips are arranged in parallel and separated from one another in a predetermined distance. The RFID barcode may further include a dielectric substrate supporting the sets of conductive strips and the inductors, and a metal layer provided on all of a rear surface of the dielectric substrate.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
