Figure 1.
Example of non-desired RFID tag read due to multipath (in-channel interference). Item tagged with tag #A is within the coverage area of RFID antenna #1, while item tagged with tag #B is located outside the coverage area. Green arrows represent desired interrogation/response. Brown arrows show non-desired interrogation/response due to multipath affecting RFID antenna #1. Red arrows represent non-desired interrogation/response due to multipath affecting RFID antenna #2 (in this case, interrogation and response RFID signals are partially attenuated when passing through the wall).
