The present invention relates to a wireless communication device, such as a transponder, that has a plurality of antennas for multi-frequency usage. This class of simple, inexpensive, disposable dispensers is particularly useful in packaging cosmetics, foodstuffs, and healthcare products. The signal input port receives an input optical signal having first and second orthogonal polarization components. The computer system identifies patterns of use, by the device, of each portion of the data based on the information collected.
