20. A method for identifying a tag, the method comprising:
generating, by a transceiver, one or more detection signals;
transmitting, by the transceiver, the one or more detection signals to the tag, wherein the one or more detection signals include a first detection signal having a first frequency range;
generating, by the tag, one or more tag responses in response to receiving the one or more detection signals from the transceiver, wherein generating the one or more tag responses includes generating a first tag response in response to receiving the first detection signal;
radiating, by the tag, the one or more tag responses, wherein the radiating includes radiating the first tag response to the transceiver;
processing, by one or more processors coupled to the transceiver, the first tag response to determine a plurality of signal components of the first tag response for the first frequency range;
determining whether characteristic values can be calculated for one or more of the plurality of signal components of the first tag response;
in response to determining that the characteristic values can be calculated:
storing the characteristic values in a multidimensional vector for storage in a database; and
determining a tag identification (ID) using the multidimensional vector.
