Label antenna and the electronic tag of UHF RFID frequency range covering the whole world
Technical field
The present invention relates to broadband miniaturization ultra-high frequency antenna and electronic tag in wireless communication technology field, be particularly operated in broadband miniaturization label antenna and electronic tag in hyperfrequency (UHF) radio-frequency recognition system.
Background technology
Radio frequency identification (RFID) technology is to utilize radiofrequency signal to carry out a kind of technology of automatic recognition object.Rfid system is generally comprised of electronic tag (comprising chip and label antenna), reader and computer etc.Current, the conventional operating frequency of radio-frequency (RF) identification has low frequency frequency range (125KHz, 134KHz), high-frequency band (13.56MHz), hyperfrequency (UHF) section (840~960MHz) and microwave frequency band more than 2.45GHz etc.Hyper band and microwave frequency band, owing to having the advantages such as operating distance is far away, communication speed is fast, size is little, are applied in fields such as Car park payment, logistics, public transport and automobile safety anti-thefts gradually.
Whole world various countries are different to the regulation of UHF RFID working frequency range, for example 840MHz~845MHz (China), 920MHz~925MHz (China), 868MHz~870MHz (Europe), 902MHz~928MHz (North America and South America), 952MHz~954MHz (Japan), this has caused certain difficulty to globalization application of REID.Design a kind of label antenna that can cover countries in the world UHF RFID frequency range, it is very important for the globalization of RFID technology, applying.For example, the development RFID label along with logistics is usually used in the automatic identification of goods.Will make in the world goods be readily identified, just necessarily require RFID label can be operated in a very wide frequency band, thereby the information in label that guarantees can be correctly identified out all over the world.
In order to realize, allow label antenna be operated in global this target of UHF RFID frequency range 840MHz~960MHz, many experts and scholars are studied broadband ultra-high frequency antenna in recent years.For example, Son, H.W. and Pyo, C.S. in document " Design of RFID tag antennas using an inductively coupled feed ", propose to come with inductance coupling structure the bandwidth of broadening label antenna, but their given antenna size larger (80mm * 17.2mm); C.C.Chang and Y.C.Lo propose to come with capacitive coupling structure the bandwidth of broadening label antenna in document " Broadband RFID tag antenna with capacitively coupled structure ", antenna structure is simple, but bandwidth is narrow, only there is 65MHz; Cho C., Choo H. and Park I. at document " Broadband RFID tag antenna with quasi-isotropic radiation pattern " by regulating double-T shaped matching network to realize broadband tag antenna, available bandwidth, from 848MHz to 926MHz, but does not also have complete UHF RFID frequency range covering the whole world; Document " UHF RFID tag antenna with broadband characteristic " is although the antenna that middle Xu L., Hu B.J. and Wang J. propose has covered UHF RFID frequency range, but need multilayer dielectricity plate, complex structure, and antenna size large (106mm * 44mm); Patent of invention " the broad band uhf RFID electronic label antennas under many applied environments " (application number: 200810029161.8) proposed a kind of radiating principal be two all with the broad band uhf RFID electronic label antenna of T-shaped gap radiation copper sheet, this antenna substrate is three-decker, complex structure, and the frequency band that can cover is only 866MHz~928MHz.
Therefore designing a kind of broadband miniaturization label antenna that can be operated in ultrahigh-frequency radio-frequency identification system is very important for the application of REID with development.
Summary of the invention
Goal of the invention: for the problem and shortage of above-mentioned existing existence, the object of this invention is to provide label antenna and the electronic tag of a kind of energy UHF RFID covering the whole world frequency range.
Technical scheme: for achieving the above object, the technical solution used in the present invention is a kind of label antenna (being called for short " all standing label antenna ") of UHF RFID frequency range covering the whole world, comprise that a pair of interconnective split ring resonator and an inductance coupling high guide line into, described interconnective split ring resonator comprises small orifices resonant ring and large scale split ring resonator, and described inductance coupling high is guided line parallel in large scale split ring resonator opening part.
