Monte Carlo Simulation for Chipless RFID Orientation Sensor

This article presents an application of the Monte Carlo method for the evaluation of a chipless RFID orientation sensor in presence of noise. The working principle of the sensor is presented and an analytical model is derived. The sensitivity of the sensor to distance is put in evidence both with uncertainty propagation of the first order approximation of the model and by Monte Carlo Simulation. The Monte Carlo approach is applied successfully even for the nonlinear parts of the model contrary to the first order approach.
