OBJECT DETECTION SYSTEM, OBJECT DETECTION METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM STORING OBJECT DETECTION PROGRAM
First Claim
1. An object detection system comprising:
- a reader waveguide formed as an open transmission line;
an RFID tag placed above the reader waveguide;
a signal strength acquisition unit that acquires signal strength of a read signal read from the RFID tag by electromagnetic coupling through the reader waveguide; and
an object detection unit that detects physical characteristics of an object corresponding to the acquired signal strength based on a relationship between a plurality of three or more values of signal strength of the read signal and physical characteristics of the object to be detected.

Abstract
An object detection system includes a reader waveguide (101) formed as an open transmission line, an RFID tag (102) placed above the reader waveguide (101), a signal strength acquisition unit (103) that acquires signal strength of a read signal read from the RFID tag (102) by electromagnetic coupling through the reader waveguide (101), and an object detection unit (104) that detects physical characteristics of an object (105) corresponding to the acquired signal strength based on a relationship between a plurality of (three or more values of) signal strength of the read signal and physical characteristics of the object to be detected.
