Communication between electromagnetic transponders
First Claim
1. An electromagnetic transponder intended to draw power necessary to its operation from a field radiated by a terminal of transmission of a carrier at a first frequency, and to back-modulate a received signal at a rate of a sub-carrier at a second frequency lower than the first one, comprising means capable of demodulating and decoding signals modulated by said sub-carrier.

Abstract
An electromagnetic transponder intended to draw the power necessary to its operation of from a field radiated by a terminal of transmission of a carrier at a first supply frequency and to back-modulate the received signal at the rate of a sub-carrier at a second frequency lower than the first one, and comprising means capable of demodulating and decoding signals modulated by said sub-carrier, as well as a system of communication between such transponders.

8. A transponder, comprising:
-
a first circuit to receive a first signal having a first frequency and to provide power from the first signal;
a second circuit coupled to the first circuit to receive a second signal having a second frequency;
a third circuit coupled to the first circuit and coupled parallel to the second circuit to receive a third signal having a third frequency, the third signal being received from another transponder; and
a fourth circuit coupled to the second and third circuits to respectively process the demodulated second and third signals. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A method for a transponder, the method comprising:
-
receiving a first signal having a first frequency and providing power from the first signal;
receiving a second signal having a second frequency and demodulating the received second signal;
receiving a third signal having a third frequency from another transponder and distinguishing the received third signal from the second signal and demodulating the received third signal; and
processing the demodulated second or third signals. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18)
