Then, we propose a novel reader architecture to solve this problem. We construct a measurement system and use two separate antennas to receive the backscattered field from the tag. After some signal processes, the combining method is used to combine these two branches. Finally, we use the coherent detection method to detect the resultant signals. Through this procedure, the readability will be increased and fading effect will be combated. In addition, when there are many tags set closely, the mutual coupling effect will make the middle tag hard to be read. Consequently, we use four different arrangements: side-by-side, cross, stagger, and corner. The spacing is 3 cm. By this method, the mutual coupling effect can be reduced, and the readability of the middle tag can be increased. Then, in order to analyze the actual waveform received by the reader, we set three tags parallel and use vector signal analyzer (VSA) to capture the communication signals between the reader and the tag. We use the coherent detection method to detect these signals, and it can get better performance than the incoherent detection method.Contents Abstract Ⅰ Contents Ⅲ List of Figures VII List of Tables XI Chapter 1 Introduction 1 1.1 Overview of RFID system 1 1.1.1 Low Frequency Systems 1 1.1.2 High Frequency Systems 3 1.2 Motivation and Organization of the Thesis 4 Chapter 2 Background 7 2.1 The Basic Concept of RFID 7 2.2 The Modulation Principles of Backscattered Field 8 2.2.1 Effect of Impedance Loading on Backscattering 8 2.2.2 Theory Analysis 11 Chapter 3 Diversity Technique for Reader Receiver 17 3.1 Overview of the Reader Architecture 17 3.1.1 Conventional Reader Architecture 17 3.1.2 Design Parameters of the Reader 21 3.2 Measurements 23 3.2.1 Measurement Settings 24 3.2.2 Measurement Results 30 3.2.2.1 PA is set at 15 dBm 30 3.2.2.2 Without PA 34 3.3 Detection 36 3.3.1 Received Signal Model 36 3.3.2 Detection Methods 40 3.3.2.1 Coherent Detection 40 3.3.2.2 Incoherent Detection 44 3.3.3 Detection Results 46 Chapter 4 Measurement and Analysis of the Mutual Coupling Effect 49 4.1 Mutual Coupling 49 4.1.1 Introduction of the Mutual Coupling Effect 50 4.1.2 Simulation 54 4.1.2.1 Introduction of the FDTD Method 54 4.1.2.2 Simulation Settings 57 4.1.2.3 Simulation Results 62 4.1.3 The Readability of the Four Arrangements 64 4.2 Signal Transmission in Gen-2 RFID System 66 4.3 Measurements 69 4.3.1 The Issue of RFID Actual Application 69 4.3.1.1 Case 1: All Tags with Chip 70 4.3.1.2 Case 2: Tag 2 with Chip, Tag 1 and Tag 3 without Chip 71 4.3.2 The Waveform on the Tags 71 4.3.2.1 Measurement Settings 71 4.3.2.2 Measurement Results 73 4.3.3 The Waveform on the Reader 74 4.3.3.1 Measurement Settings 74 4.3.3.2 Measurement Results 75 4.3.4 Coherent Detection Is Used to Extend Read Range 77 4.3.4.1 Measurement Settings 78 4.3.4.2 Measurement Results 78 Chapter 5 Conclusions and Suggestions 81 5.1 Conclusions 81 5.2 Suggestions 82 References 833410767 bytesapplication/pdfen-US射頻辨識衰減效應相互耦合同調偵測RFIDfading effectmutual couplingcoherent detection射頻辨識系統之讀取機新設計A Novel Reader Design for UHF Passive RFID Systemthesishttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/58706/1/ntu-96-R94942083-1.pdf
