1. An RFID tag that stores data, comprising:
- a first antenna for transmitting radio waves, transmission means for generating a transmission signal by modulating the data, and providing the transmission signal to the first antenna; and
emission control means for controlling an output power of the first antenna in order to transmit the transmission signal, the emission control means being connected to the first antenna and the transmission means.

Abstract
It is possible to prevent an unauthorized read-out from both active tags and passive tags. Antenna emission is turned on and off by using a switch, or attenuated by using a resistor. A part of the antenna may be chipped. With these configurations, it is possible to lower the emission level of the antenna thus preventing an unauthorized read-out of important information from a remote reader.
