"Passive Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is a short range technology for transferring information. The main advantage of passive RFID systems over active communication systems is the battery-less operation at the client sides. However, there are two major challenges that limit the widespread adaptation of passive RFID systems: short communication range and low read rate in dense deployments. This dissertation addresses these issues by studying the root causes and develops solutions for them.

In this dissertation, understanding the backscattering behavior of antennas and also the mutual coupling interactions among them are found to be the root causes of the two above-mentioned …
