Abstract

A circuit for an RFID tag has at least two RF ports for driving points of the antenna that may correspond to different RF polarizations. The RF ports may be driven by a common modulating signal, or by separate modulating signals. Further, the ports may be coupled and uncoupled together, responsive to a control signal. The control signal may be the same as one or both of the modulating signals.
