First Claim
Patent Images
1. A remote-readable identification tag, comprising:
- at least two resonance circuits which have mutually differing resonance frequencies;
at least one transmitter-receiver antenna system coupled to the resonance circuits, wherein;
a signal received by the antenna system is fed into the resonance circuits;
a resonance signal of at least one of the resonance circuits is emitted via the antenna system; and
identification coding is provided by a multi-bit sequence having a pattern corresponding to the mutually differing resonance frequencies;
and further comprising;
a delay device delaying a signal response between receiving the signal by the antenna system and feeding the signal into the resonance circuits.

Abstract
A remote-readable identification tag (T) that is provided with at least two resonance circuits (81 . . . 8n) and at least one transmitter/receiver antenna system (1) coupled with the circuits. The at least two circuits have a respectively different resonant frequency. A delay device (6) of the remote-readable identification tag delays a signal response between a signal received by the antenna system and a signal emitted in response by the antenna system, e.g., by delaying feeding the received signal into the resonance circuits.
