The rechargeable energy storage device 30 is a super capacitor, a tantalum capacitor or a rechargeable battery. 2 is a block diagram of a phase difference detector of the present invention. The phase difference detectors 12, 18, 24 of Figure 1 are comprised of a phase comparator 34, a charge pump 36 and a low pass filter 38 of Figure 2 . [0048] The phase comparator 34 compares a reference phase (such as the phase angle wireless signal of the phase shifted ANT 1 , the addition wireless signal obtained by the phase shifting signal adder 16 ...) and the phase The addition of the N-1 signal adder of the displacement to the phase to be measured (such as the phase angle wireless signal of ANT2, the phase angle wireless signal of ANT3, and the phase of ANTEN+1) The phase difference of the angular wireless signals) to produce phase differences corresponding to one of the sets of adaptive angular phase antenna elements 100, 102, 104, respectively.

[005] Since the system architecture of this embodiment passively processes the signals received by the antennas, it is therefore possible to automatically find a suitable reception angle. Moreover, phase comparator 34, charge pump 36, and low pass filter 38 are all very low power consuming components and are therefore suitable for use on passive RFID tags.
