Abstract

A receiving apparatus for an RFID reader estimates channel coefficients for each of a plurality of receiving antennas based on tag response signals received via a plurality of receiving antennas, compensates the tag response signals received via the plurality of receiving antennas based on the channel coefficients estimated for each of a plurality of channel estimators, combines the compensated tag response signals for each of the plurality of receiving antennas to generate a combined signal, and detect bits in the combined signal.
