Improvements in RFID Physical Layer Using Ultra-wideband Signals

Even though narrowband RFID systems are currently quite mature and effective in many applications, the limitations posed by narrowband signal characteristics (discussed in Chap. 2) makes them somewhat unreliable for use in certain practical environments [1].
