Abstract :
This paper will address new passive sensors being embedded into logistic chains. Some of those examples include sensors developed in cork, paper, wood substrates that allow the measurement of temperature and humidity in a RF passive sensing approach. For doing so wireless power transmission combined with backscatter technology is going to be explored in this paper.
