“…On the one hand, the reader has to fulfill requirements with respect to the signal power in the communication links, i.e., the reader has to provide a sufficient transmission power and sensitivity. On the other hand, the reader has to fulfill requirements in order to perform localization based on phase difference of arrival (PDoA) techniques [10]. The core of the reader is chosen to be an SDR, to guarantee a fast implementation of the hardware and the PDoA algorithms.…”
