Communications Between Multiple Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) Connected Tags And One Or More Devices, And Related Systems And Methods
First Claim
1. A system of communicating between one or more radio frequency identification (RFID) tags and/or devices comprising:
- a first RFID tag;
a second RFID tag; and
a device,wherein the first and second RFID tags are configured to mate to each other and directly exchange information, andwherein the second RFID tag is further configured to directly exchange information with the device such that information received directly at the second RFID tag from the first RFID tag may then be directly exchanged with the device.

Abstract
Protocols, systems, and methods are disclosed for two or more RFID tags to communicate with each other and a device using direct connections. A disclosed system includes a first RFID tag, a second RFID tag, and a device. The first and second RFID tags are configured to mate to each other and directly exchange information. The second RFID tag is further configured to directly exchange information with the device such that information received directly at the second RFID tag from the first RFID tag may then be directly exchanged with the device. The first RFID tag may send a first tag identification directly from the first RFID tag to the second RFID tag. The second RFID tag may then send a first acknowledgement to the first RFID tag if the first tag identification was correctly received by the second RFID tag.
