Radio frequency identification (RFID) is a growing technology for monitoring and recognizing objects, persons, or animals via wireless communications. Precisely, RFID can operate longer range and has an ability to be automated without human control. Chipless RFID tag basically is a RFID tag that does not require a microchip in the transponder. The major impediments in designing chipless RFID tag are data encoding and transmission. The passive chipless RFID tag can be fabricated on any substrate material without external operating circuit, which is different compared to a conventional chipped RFID tag. In this paper, 20 resonators are used to design a 20-bit chipless RFID tag, which operates at the ultra-wideband (UWB) frequency range between 3.00 and 10.00 GHz. It is found that the additional resonators can encode data and increase the chipless RFID tag's encoding capacity significantly. In sum, multiple resonators enable the chipless RFID tag to encode data at different operating frequencies.

A planar nanodevice, known as the self-switching diode (SSD) which can be exploited as a high-speed rectifier in a wide range of applications. The non-linearity in the I-V characteristic of the SSD structure has been aimed for rectification application at GHz frequencies is reported. In this work simulation has been conducted on Si-based SSD structure with 230 nm L-shaped channels using ATLAS device simulator under the channel length range of 0.5 μm to 1.3 μm. Furthermore, the validity of the cut-off frequency has also been described using a theoretical value of f t at zero bias. The results showed that the optimization in the channel length of the SSD can assist the high cut-off frequency of SSD rectifying behavior to efficiently operate as microwave rectifier.
