摘要:
A method of producing an identification signal for a sheet article of non-conductive material, which article is marked for identification purposes by the incorporation therein of a small quantity of very thin conductive fibers which are capable of absorbing and reflecting certain substantial proportions of microwave radiation energy impinging thereon, which comprise placing the part of said article in which the very thin conductive fibers are incorporated in the path of an unguided microwave beam, measuring the excess of microwave radiation energy arrested over the energy reflected and producing an output signal which is representative of the presence of such excess.
