Patent attributes
In accordance with the teachings of the present invention, a passive resonant reflector and a method for the same are provided. In a particular embodiment of the present invention, the passive resonant reflector includes first and second conductive/capacitance layers, one or more insulation layers separating the first and second conductive/capacitance layers, and a transceiver antenna having first and second ends. The first end of the transceiver antenna is coupled to the first conductive/capacitance layer, while the second end of the transceiver antenna is coupled to the second conductive/capacitance layer. The transceiver antenna is operable to receive a transmitted radio frequency signal, charge the first and second conductive/capacitance layers with the received radio frequency signal, and transmit the received radio frequency signal upon a discharge of the first and second conductive/capacitance layers.
