Abstract
A time division multiplexed reader to shared RF channel processor signal transport network for a geolocation system in which the number of readers is relatively small, allowing the use of only a single shared RF channel processor. The differential signal transport delays among respective segments of the network creates an inherent set of time division multiplexed time slots for the various readers, that allows the shared RF channel processor to receive and process the output of each reader in a known, independent time frame.
