The specific meaning of the above terms in the present patent can be understood in a specific case by those skilled in the art.
The noun in the present invention explains:
printing type antenna: the conductive paste is uniformly coated on paper, films and other base materials by printing equipment such as a flexible plate, a screen printing plate, a gravure printing plate, an ink-jet printing plate and the like, and a conductive circuit is formed by heating, infrared drying, natural drying and the like.
Conductive slurry: the conductive material such as silver powder, copper powder or a mixture thereof, graphene and the like is added with a solvent and a dispersant to form a material which can be printed or jet-printed.
An RFID chip: demodulating the input signal, reacting appropriately, modulating the backscatter signal, modeling with resistors and capacitors.
Dipole: and the largest part of the RFID tag antenna realizes long-distance communication.
An inductance coil: resonates with the tag chip's capacitance, providing power/signals to the RFID tag chip.
A coupling part: power transfer between the dipole and the inductive loop, most dipole designs use inductive coupling similar to a transformer.
The invention conception of the invention is as follows: according to the invention, the cross line node lines are added to the hollow parts, so that the interiors of the hollow areas are mutually communicated, the total energy loss in the signal transmission process is reduced by reducing the resistance, the antenna printing area is reduced, and meanwhile, the feedback signal performance of the RFID tag is improved.
The prior art RFID tag mainly includes: the chip is made of monocrystalline silicon and is used for receiving and transmitting a signal device; the chip is embedded in an annular inductance coil, the inductance coil is embedded in the middle of the dipole antenna, the bottom of the inductance coil is connected with the dipole as a coupling part, the dipole is in a bilateral symmetry structure, and the dipole can be a straight wire or a more complex cage-shaped or bat-wing-shaped antenna and the like.
A conventional dipole antenna is shown in fig. 1, where two arms of the dipole antenna are the field areas.
Referring to fig. 2, the field area of the original dipole antenna is designed to be hollowed, and each arm of the dipole antenna forms a hollowed area, so that more printing areas can be reduced, and the consumption of conductive paste can be reduced.
The width of the lines at the edge of the hollow pattern is in direct proportion to the area of the antenna, and theoretically, the smaller the width is, the better the width is; experiments show that the lower limit of the line width is not less than 0.1mm, and the upper limit is not more than 3 mm. According to the invention, the antenna areas of the original dipole antenna and the dipole antenna after the hollow design are compared, the widths of the hollow edge lines of the hollow dipole antenna are respectively 1.0mm, 0.8mm, 0.6mm, 0.4mm and 0.2mm, and the comparison data are shown in the following table in detail.
Figure BDA0002587532360000051
In conclusion, the printing area can be reduced by 90% at most after the hollowed-out design compared with the original dipole design, and the consumption of the conductive paste can be correspondingly saved by 90%.
And (3) testing the performance after hollowing out:
after the hollowed dipole antenna is subjected to scanning test by professional equipment, the performance curve is compared with the original solid dipole before modification, the performance curve is basically consistent, but the energy of the feedback signal is reduced to some extent, and the dipole antenna can be applied to general application scenes with low requirements on tag reading performance.
The width design of various hollowed-out pattern edge lines in the hollowed-out dipole antenna can meet the requirement of the original design (the UHF sensitivity difference is within 3 db), but the signal feedback capacity is poor; meanwhile, scanning curves designed according to line widths of different hollow-out patterns are kept consistent (UHF sensitivity difference is within 3 db), and the line width has small influence on the antenna performance; wherein the print area of the line width of 0.2mm is the smallest and the conductive paste used is the smallest.
In order to improve the signal feedback capacity of the hollowed dipole antenna, the total energy loss resistivity in the signal transmission process can be reduced by adopting a resistance reducing mode. It is known that the resistivity R is inversely proportional to the cross-sectional area S. According to the antenna, the cross line node lines are added in the hollow areas, so that the interiors of the hollow areas are mutually communicated, the antenna printing area S is enlarged, and the R is reduced under the condition that other parameters are not changed.
For the design of the intersection line and the node line of the hollowed-out area, referring to fig. 3, various forms such as a # -shaped grid shape, a polygonal honeycomb shape and the like which can enable the interiors of the hollowed-out areas to be communicated with each other can be used; the node line width is proportional to the antenna area, and theoretically the smaller the size the better. The lower limit of the width of the node line is not lower than 0.1mm and the upper limit is not more than 3 mm; the lower limit of the distance between the node lines is not less than 0.5mm, otherwise the dosage of the conductive paste can be obviously increased, the upper limit is not more than 10mm, otherwise the improvement of the promotion performance is not facilitated. According to the method, the areas of the original dipole antenna and the antenna of the dipole antenna after the hollowed design are compared, the hollowed edge line width of the hollowed dipole antenna is the same as the cross line node line width, the hollowed edge line width is 1.0mm, 0.8mm, 0.6mm, 0.4mm and 0.2mm, and the comparison data are shown in the following table in detail.
Figure BDA0002587532360000061
In conclusion, the printing area of the antenna after the optimized design can be reduced by 80% at most compared with the original design, and the consumption of the conductive paste can be saved by 80% correspondingly.
And (4) testing the optimized performance: after the optimized product is subjected to scanning test by professional equipment, the performance curve is compared with the original design before modification, the product performance is kept consistent and is not changed, and the product can replace the product of the original design.
The problem of poor feedback energy of the hollow antenna signal can be effectively solved by adding the crossed line node lines in the hollow area; scanning curves designed by different cross line node widths are kept consistent (UHF sensitivity difference is within 3 db), and the influence of the cross line node line width on the antenna performance is small; wherein the printing area of the 0.2mm cross line node line width is minimum, and the used conductive paste is minimum.
Correspondingly, based on the hollowed-out dipole antenna, the printed RFID tag comprises a base material, wherein the conductive paste is printed on the base material in a printing mode to form the hollowed-out dipole antenna, and the hollowed-out dipole antenna is connected with a chip through an inductance coil.
The substrate includes paper, film and other flexible materials of various types. The printing method comprises various printing processes such as flexible printing, screen printing, gravure printing, ink jet printing and the like. The conductive paste used includes, but is not limited to, printable materials prepared from conductive materials such as silver powder, copper powder or mixtures thereof, graphene, and the like.
The printing RFID label reduces the printing area of the antenna and improves the performance of the RFID label at the same time.
The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and it should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, several modifications and variations can be made without departing from the technical principle of the present invention, and these modifications and variations should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
