Abstract

The symmetry properties of transmission lines loaded with single (per-unit-cell) symmetric resonators described in Chap.  4 may be used not only as a sensing mechanism (Chap.  6), but also as an encoding mechanism. In this chapter, preliminary results applying such symmetry properties for the synthesis of chipless tags for radio-frequency identification (RFID) are shown.
