Background technology
Electronic label antenna generally all belongs to the balanced feeding form, if use coaxial cable feed, need between antenna and cable, add balance/imbalance converter, just usually said Ba Lun.In addition; The complex impedance measurement of electronic label antenna also need add a matching network earlier before Ba Lun, be the impedance conversion of antenna 50 ohm, could realize the accurate measurement to electronic label antenna; The routine measurement mode is complex steps not only; Cost dearly, and since around test component to the influence of antenna port, make precision of test result have much room for improvement.
In the measuring process of miniature antenna, connect the potato masher antenna radiation field that the cable each several part of antenna and network analyzer can not ignore, the practical operation difficulty of getting up is very big.Particularly when the unconventional feed of antenna, directly embed small-sized radiator situation like chip, an interference is extremely serious.Therefore, need special metering system to obtain abundance test data accurately.The test of rfid system electronic label antenna is that engineering technical personnel show off a difficult problem to be solved always.
Because non-50 ohm of the electronic label antenna port Impedance to be measured of prior art, electronic label antenna port to be measured can not directly join through concentric cable and vector network analyzer in the test process.Because electronic label antenna port to be measured is the balanced feeding mode, and concentric cable is the unbalanced feed mode, accurately test electronic label antenna port parameter to be measured must be by means of balance/imbalance conversion process, i.e. barron device spare.In addition, be set to complex impedance under the port general work frequency of electronic label antenna to be measured, have impedance mismatching, have a strong impact on precision of test result with concentric cable.General test device for electronic label antenna to be measured is: at port loaded impedance match circuit and barron device spare, test structure is complicated and the result had the influence that difference is ignored.
Summary of the invention
In order to solve the deficiency of prior art, the purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of method of radio frequency identification system electronic label antenna complex impedance test device.
In order to reach said purpose, first aspect of the present invention the present invention proposes the proving installation of a kind of radio-frequency recognition system electronic tag port to be measured complex impedance, and described proving installation comprises:

To achieve these goals, another aspect of the present invention has proposed a kind of preparation method of measurement mechanism of electronic label antenna port complex impedance, and the step of this measuring method comprises:
Step S1: be embedded into first sheet metal central authorities greater than the second sheet metal area to second sheet metal, both are electrically connected;
Step S2: cut the electronic label antenna to be measured that is symmetrically distributed about two arm directions symmetry, get the half the of electronic label antenna length to be measured, the half arm electronic label antenna that obtains being symmetrically distributed;
Step S3: be connected the two-port of the coupling annulus of half arm electronic label antenna with the second sheet metal short circuit;
Step S4: the crack foam is handled on the limit, two ends of half arm electronic label antenna, is used for fixing half arm electronic label antenna;
Step S5:, and link to each other with vector network analyzer through coaxial cable with the feeding point of half arm electronic label antenna and the core short circuit of converting interface;
Step S6: the calibration vector network analyzer, and accomplish initial setting up;
Step S7: in the vector network analyzer operator scheme, select Smith chart, the port Impedance of double arm electronic label antenna is tested, and obtains the port Impedance of half arm electronic label antenna;
Step S8: preserve the port Impedance test result of half arm electronic label antenna, and divide record port Impedance data;
Step S9: the port Impedance test result of half arm electronic label antenna multiply by 2, then obtain electronic label antenna port Impedance to be measured.
Beneficial effect of the present invention: the present invention is directed to the electronic label antenna of structural symmetry, proposed a kind of proving installation of image method.Since the radio RF recognition technology own characteristic, electronic label antenna port to be measured and unconventional 50 ohm or 100 ohm of feeds, and antenna port can not directly be connected with testing tool.And in order to obtain the impedance of electronic label antenna port to be measured; Usually need convert electronic label antenna port Impedance to be measured to 50 ohm; And through the balance/imbalance converter, be electronic label antenna port translation to be measured uneven feeding classification, could link to each other with testing tool.This process is comparatively loaded down with trivial details, and the adding of matching network and balance/imbalance converter, and the radiation of electronic label antenna to be measured is caused unnecessary influence, then, has influence on precision of test result.The present invention is through simply being divided into two electronic label antenna symmetrical structure to be measured; Utilize desirable ground plane to replace the electric field E face of electronic tag radiation field to be measured; Electronic label antenna formal transformation to be measured is the monopole form; Thereby electronic label antenna to be measured can directly join with testing tool, has effectively solved the drawback of electronic tag port balanced feeding to be measured.
Whole electronic label antenna can regard as half arm antenna structure and its about the image antenna of second sheet metal symmetry and form.The impedance that this device is used image antenna is the half the of its whole antenna impedances, if obtain the impedance of entire antenna, only need record its image antenna impedance, and twice gets final product then.Of the present invention through test half arm antenna port impedance; Solved the test difficult problem of balanced feeding type of antenna; Than the required balance/imbalance converter of balanced feeding type of antenna testing impedance and the design procedure of matching network; Simple testing process of the present invention when guaranteeing measuring accuracy, has economic benefit.Whole test process control element of the present invention is simply effective, and controlling schemes has higher feasibility, and the design of control system is prone to row.
