  • Abstract
    In this paper we present a novel method for estimating the inclination of passive UHF RFID tags, for use in supply chains to monitor the handling of tagged items. Based on observations of the polarization, a Bayesian estimator of the tag inclination is constructed. The Bayesian estimator has been analyzed and evaluated in a experimental setup. The results shows great potential as the estimator is very robust when determining the inclination.
