  • Patent number: 5471196
    Abstract: A security system for monitoring objects, for example commodities, which system comprises an antenna (7) with at least one tuning capacitor (1) in the monitored zone and receiver/transmitter devices functioning as tuned resonance circuits on the individual objects monitored, the antenna emitting at short intervals an electrical signal that makes the receiver/transmitter device of a monitored object, which is present in the monitored zone, oscillate, which oscillations in the intermissions between antenna (7) transmissions can be received by the antenna (7)--or by a separate antenna--and used to detect the presence of the monitored object in the monitored zone. A switch (3) is provided in the electrical circuit between the antenna (7) and the tuning capacitor (1).
