Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim 78 words
An object identification system comprising: an active transponder including a signal generator comprising a transmitting coil and an inductor and means for detecting resonance circuit load modulation; a passive transponder mounted on an object and including a resonance circuit receiving energy transmitted by the active transponder; a coding circuit, associated with the passive transponder, powered by an electrical signal received from said resonance circuit for selectably modulating said electrical signal, thereby modulating the load on said resonance circuit.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 78 words
An object identification system comprising: an active transponder including a signal generator comprising a transmitting coil and an inductor and means for detecting resonance circuit load modulation; a passive transponder mounted on an object and including a resonance circuit receiving energy transmitted by the active transponder; a coding circuit, associated with the passive transponder, powered by an electrical signal received from said resonance circuit for selectably modulating said electrical signal, thereby modulating the load on said resonance circuit.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 18 words
