1. A modulated backscatter radio frequency identification device comprising:

  • a diode detector configured to selectively modulate a reply signal onto an incoming continuous wave;

    communications circuitry configured to provide a modulation control signal to the diode detector, the diode detector being configured to modulate the reply signal in response to be modulation control signal; and

    circuitry configured to increase impedance change at the diode detector which would otherwise not occur because the diode detector rectifies the incoming continuous wave while modulating the reply signal, whereby reducing the rectified signal increases modulation depth by removing the reverse bias effects on impedance changes.
