Description

Ultra-wideband tag antenna suitable for metal liquid cross-coupling environment
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of radio frequency identification, and particularly relates to a tag antenna working in an ultrahigh frequency band and suitable for metal, liquid and mutual coupling environments.
Background
Compared with the traditional bar code technology, the Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) system has the advantages of long identification distance, high reading speed, no need of 'visualization' condition in the identification process, manual participation and the like, has the greatest advantage that the RFID label has a repeated read-write function, has strong data containing capacity of a chip, and can overcome the defects of 'visualization', short distance and the like in the traditional identification technology. However, in the process of rapid development of the RFID technology, while showing many advantages, the disadvantages are not negligible, and these disadvantages hinder the development of the technology, which is a huge obstacle for wide popularization of the technology at present, because of complexity of electromagnetic wave communication, mutual influence between tags, influence of external environment such as metal, liquid, etc. on the tags themselves, and serious reduction of error-free reliability of tag data, solving these problems is a key for the next development of the technology.
In practical use of RFID tags, multiple tags are often used simultaneously, and their application environments are either metal, liquid or other, and when the tags are close to these media, the nonlinear interference of these media and the coupling effect between the mutual coupling distribution tags simultaneously act on the RFID system, resulting in significant changes in system performance. In recent years, many studies have been made on the application of tags in different environments, such as the application of tags in metal, the application of tags in liquid, and the application of tags in a multi-tag environment, and most of the previous studies have been made under the influence of a single environment, but few studies have been made on tags generally applicable to metal, liquid, and mutually coupled environments.
Secondly, in the free environment, the definition range of each country to the ultra high frequency band is different, and each country has its own frequency allocation. For example, the UHF bands in China are 840-845MHz and 920-925MHz, in Europe, 866-869MHz, in North America and south America, 902-928MHz, and in Japan, 950-956 MHz. The currently researched tag mainly takes 915MHz as a central frequency band, the main frequency coverage range is 902-928MHz in North America and south America, and the 840-960MHz ultrahigh frequency band cannot be covered globally. In view of the above, there is a need for a novel tag antenna suitable for use in metal, liquid and mutual coupling environments.

The electromagnetic transient simulation software HFSS is used for testing the working performance of the ultra-wideband tag antenna under free, metal, liquid and mutual coupling environments respectively. The environment parameter setting will be described in detail below.
When the ultra-wideband tag antenna works in a free environment, namely the ultra-wideband tag antenna is independently positioned in a free space, wherein the free space is a space in which a uniform medium with the relative dielectric constant and the relative magnetic permeability of 1 exists, and no other interference source exists in the space. In the experiment, by defining the radiation boundary condition, the radiation boundary can absorb the electromagnetic wave of the whole radio frequency identification system, the radiation boundary can be regarded as extending to the infinite distance of the space essentially, and after the radiation boundary condition is set in the HFSS, software can automatically simulate the radiation field of the ultra-wideband tag antenna in the free space. The impedance and the resonant frequency of the antenna are adjusted by adjusting the bent double L-shaped arm, the double T-shaped matching network and the spiral dipole structure, the return loss curve of the ultra-wideband tag antenna in a free environment is shown in fig. 4, as can be seen from fig. 4, the resonant frequency of the antenna is 915MHz, the return loss of the antenna is-47.3 dB at the frequency, and the-3 dB bandwidth of the antenna is 550MHz-1300MHz, so that the ultra-wideband antenna has the ultra-wideband characteristic. The impedance curve of the ultra-wideband tag antenna in the free environment is shown in fig. 5, wherein the solid line is the real part of the antenna impedance, and the dotted line is the imaginary part of the antenna impedance, it can be seen from fig. 5 that the impedance of the antenna at 915MHz is 10.7+ j141.8 Ω, and is perfectly matched with the tag chip Monza4, and the antenna impedance is in a stable state at the whole central frequency band. Fig. 6 is an EH plane radiation simulation diagram of the ultra-wideband tag antenna of the present invention in a free environment, where an outer line is a simulated radiation diagram of the principal radiation direction theta (θ) =0 on the E-plane when the outer line is 915MHz, and an inner line is a simulated radiation diagram of the principal radiation direction theta (θ) =90 on the H-plane when the inner line is 915 MHz; fig. 7 is a three-dimensional directional gain diagram of the ultra-wideband tag antenna according to the present invention in a free environment and at a working frequency of 915 MHz. As can be seen from fig. 6 and 7, the maximum gain achieved by the antenna at the 915MHz operating frequency is 0.88dBi, which meets the design requirement.
When the ultra-wideband tag antenna works in a metal environment, namely metal interference exists in the space near the ultra-wideband tag antenna. When a metal medium exists in the working environment of the ultra-wideband tag antenna, electromagnetic waves can be reflected by the metal surface, so that the working performance of the ultra-wideband tag antenna is influenced. As shown in fig. 8, a metal sheet is disposed at a position 40mm away from the ultra-wideband tag antenna, the analog ultra-wideband tag antenna is in a metal environment, and the size of the metal sheet is 100mm × 40 mm. Referring to fig. 11, a return loss simulation diagram of the ultra-wideband tag antenna of the present invention in a metal, liquid, and mutual coupling environment, wherein a dotted line is a return loss curve of the ultra-wideband tag antenna in the metal environment. As can be seen from fig. 11, when the ultra-wideband tag antenna operates in a metal environment, the resonant frequency band of the tag slightly shifts from 915MHz to a high frequency, and the return loss at the resonant frequency increases from-47.3 dB in a free environment to-35 dB or so. Referring to fig. 12, an impedance change diagram of the ultra-wideband tag antenna in a metal, liquid, and mutually coupled environment, where a dotted line is an impedance change curve of the ultra-wideband tag antenna in the metal environment. It can be seen that near 950MHz, the real part and the imaginary part of the tag impedance in the metal environment are greatly increased, and although the impedance of the ultra-wideband tag antenna in the metal environment changes obviously, a high impedance matching degree with the chip can be maintained near 915 MHz. In a whole, the return loss of the ultra-wideband tag antenna working in a metal environment is still within a normal range, the bandwidth of the ultra-wideband tag antenna is basically unchanged, and a high impedance matching degree can be kept with a chip, so that the adaptability of the ultra-wideband tag antenna in the metal environment can be seen.
When the ultra-wideband tag antenna works in a liquid environment, namely liquid interference exists in the space near the ultra-wideband tag antenna, and when a liquid medium exists in the working environment of the ultra-wideband tag antenna, the liquid surface can absorb electromagnetic waves, so that the working performance of the ultra-wideband tag antenna is influenced. As shown in fig. 9, rectangular liquid is disposed at a distance of 40mm from the ultra-wideband tag antenna, the analog ultra-wideband tag antenna is in a liquid environment, and the size of the liquid is 100mm × 40mm × 5 mm. Referring to fig. 11, a return loss simulation diagram of the ultra-wideband tag antenna of the present invention in a metal, liquid, and mutual coupling environment, wherein a dotted line is a return loss curve of the ultra-wideband tag antenna in a liquid environment. As can be seen from fig. 11, when the ultra-wideband tag antenna operates in a liquid environment, the resonant frequency band of the tag shifts from 915MHz to a low frequency to around 850MHz, and the return loss at the resonant frequency drops from-47.3 dB in a free environment to-27.5 dB. Referring to fig. 12, an impedance change diagram of the ultra-wideband tag antenna in a metal, liquid, and mutual coupling environment, where a dotted line is an impedance change curve of the ultra-wideband tag antenna in the liquid environment. It can be seen that the imaginary part and the real part of the impedance of the tag antenna are reduced and the peak value is shifted with the frequency under the liquid environment, but the impedance matching with the tag chip Monza4 can be kept better at the central frequency. In a whole, the return loss of the ultra-wideband tag antenna working in a liquid environment is better than that of the ultra-wideband tag antenna working in a free environment, the-10 dB working bandwidth of the ultra-wideband tag antenna is basically unchanged, and the impedance matching degree with a chip is higher, so that the adaptability of the ultra-wideband tag antenna in the liquid environment can be seen.
When the ultra-wideband tag antenna works in a mutual coupling environment, namely mutual coupling interference exists in the space near the ultra-wideband tag antenna, the vector sum of coupling energy among the array antenna units is changed along with a scanning angle due to the mutual coupling interference, and larger power reflection can be generated in a specific frequency and direction. As shown in fig. 10, the analog tag antenna is in a mutual coupling environment by using two ultra-wideband first antennas and two ultra-wideband second antennas of the same type, wherein the distance between the two antennas is 40 mm. Referring to fig. 11, a return loss simulation diagram of the ultra-wideband tag antenna of the present invention in a metal, liquid, and mutual coupling environment, where a solid line is a return loss curve of the ultra-wideband tag antenna in the mutual coupling environment. It can be seen from fig. 11 that when the ultra-wideband tag antenna operates in a mutual coupling environment, the resonant frequency of the ultra-wideband tag antenna tag may shift to 950MHz, but it can maintain the return loss below-40 dB in the 870MHz-970MHz frequency band, and the return loss at the resonant frequency may be reduced from-47.3 dB in a free environment to about-57 dB. Referring to fig. 12, an impedance change diagram of the ultra-wideband tag antenna in a metal, liquid, and mutual coupling environment, where a solid line is an impedance change curve of the ultra-wideband tag antenna in the mutual coupling environment. The real part and the imaginary part of the impedance of the tag antenna under the mutual coupling environment can be close to the real part and the imaginary part of the tag chip in a wider frequency band. Overall, the echo loss of the ultra-wideband tag antenna working in the mutual coupling environment is better than that in the free environment, the-10 dB working bandwidth of the ultra-wideband tag antenna is basically unchanged, and the impedance matching degree with a chip is higher than that in the free environment, so that the adaptability of the ultra-wideband tag antenna in the mutual coupling environment can be seen.
In order to highlight the adaptability of the ultra-wideband tag antenna in various environments, a performance comparison experiment of the ultra-wideband tag antenna and a folded dipole tag Alien-9640 of the same type is carried out. As is obvious from the experimental results shown in fig. 13 and fig. 14, when two dipole tags are in a liquid environment, the central frequency band shifts to a low frequency, the transmission coefficient is reduced, the matching degree between the antenna and the chip is reduced, the transmission coefficient of the Alien-9640 tag is lower than 0.7 as a whole, and the ultra-wideband tag antenna of the present invention can maintain a transmission coefficient of about 0.8 near the central frequency band. In a metal and tag mutual coupling environment, the Alien-9640 tag can generate frequency deviation and transmission coefficient reduction, which are similar to the situation in a liquid environment. When the ultra-wideband tag antenna is in a metal environment, the central frequency band can shift to high frequency, but the transmission coefficient near the central frequency band can be maintained to be more than 0.9 or even close to 1, and when the ultra-wideband tag antenna is in a mutual coupling environment, the power transmission coefficient of the ultra-wideband tag antenna can be close to 1 in a wide band, and the tag performance is better than that in a free environment.
It will be understood by those skilled in the art that the foregoing is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and is not intended to limit the invention, and that any modification, equivalent replacement, or improvement made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included within the scope of the present invention.
