1. A tag communication device for performing wireless communication with a RFID tag attached to a moving body through a radio wave, and comprising:

  • a scan antenna having plural antenna elements and scanning a beam of the transmitted radio wave toward a space on a moving path of said moving body;

    data generating means for relating signal receiving information from said RFID tag to time passage information, and generating plural sets of a scan angle of said scan antenna and said time passage information in receiving this signal receiving information; and

    moving direction detecting means for calculating a linear approximate straight line showing the relation between said scan angle and said time passage information by using data generated by said data generating means, and detecting a moving direction of the moving body attaching said RFID tag from an inclination of this linear approximate straight line.
