Ambient backscatter
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Main page Ambient backscatter uses existing radio frequency signals, such as radio, television and mobile telephony, to transmit data without a
Contents battery or power grid connection. Each such device uses an antenna to pick up an existing signal and convert it into tens to hundreds of
Featured content microwatts of electricity.[1] It uses that power to modify and reflect the signal with encoded data. Antennas on other devices, in turn, detect
Current events that signal and can respond accordingly.

Wikipedia store Transmission rates were 1k bits per second between devices situated 0.45 metres (1 ft 6 in) apart inside and 0.75 metres (2 ft 6 in) apart
outside, sufficient to handle text messages or other small data sets. Circuit sizes can be as small as 1 sq. mm.[1]
