Low-power ambient backscatter communication (AmBC) relying on radio-frequency (RF) energy harvesting is an energy-efficient solution for batteryless Internet of Things (IoT). However, signals are severely faded by dyadic channel (DBC), limiting connectivity in conventional orthogonal time-division-based AmBC (TD-AmBC). In order to support massive AmBC, we propose sparse-coded (SC-AmBC) based non-orthogonal signaling. Sparse code utilizes inherent sparsity where power supplies RF tags rely...
