Backscatter Radio technology enables HD Video streaming to transmitting Internet of Things Sensors Several Kilometers
Backscattering is a form of wireless transmission based on modulated reflection of external RF signals. Whereas conventional radios generate their own signals, backscatter radios transmit data by making tiny changes to reflected signals. This approach requires a minimal number of active components, promising simple low-cost battery-free operations. Since the source …
