Description
Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of radio frequency, in particular to a passive anti-metal RFID (radio frequency identification) tag antenna.
Background
Radio Frequency identification (rfid) technology has the advantages of being fast, plastic, durable in anti-fouling, changeable, and the like, and is widely applied to various fields in recent years; but also presents some bottlenecks and research challenges, such as resistance to metals. The special electromagnetic property of metal can cause the phenomenon of reading failure; however, in the actual production practice process, metal environments exist in various industries at present, such as goods shelves in logistics, intelligent medical appliances and the like; therefore, the use of RFID tag antennas is very limited for industries such as logistics and steel. To study the effect of metallic environment on RFID, it is also becoming more important to design an RFID tag antenna with resistance to metallic properties.
In recent years, scholars at home and abroad propose a plurality of metal-resistant RFID tag antennas. The document [ compass courage, handsome, yeanzhong ] UHF RFID tag antenna optimization design for metal surfaces [ J ] microwave science, 2015,31(03):31-35] proposes an improved folded dipole antenna, which uses an optimization algorithm to add a short-circuit section to adjust the input impedance of the tag antenna. The structure is relatively simple, but the size is larger and the length is 90 mm; and the gain is small, and when the power reaches the limit of 4W, the reading distance is only 2.4 m. The design of a broadband anti-metal tag antenna adopting a capacitive coupling feed mode [ J ] informationized research, 2014,40(01):51-54] designs an anti-metal antenna adopting capacitive coupling feed; the antenna adopts a single-layer FR4 substrate, and a groove is formed in the circular patch, so that the size of the groove is changed to conveniently achieve impedance matching; however, the reading distance is relatively short, when the power of the reader reaches 4W, the theoretical reading distance can only reach less than 3 meters, the size is larger, 160mm x 40mm, and the installation is not beneficial to occasions with small planes. Substrates with high dielectric constants are often used to reduce the size of the tag antenna, which is equivalent to raising the distance between the tag and the metal surface; in the document [ open bridge, Zhouyonggang, Pengjiang dew, UHF frequency band anti-metal tag antenna analysis and design [ J ] electronic technology, 2016,29(08):4-6], ceramic is used as a substrate, and open-circuit branch lines and short-circuit pieces are loaded, so that the structure is simple, but the cost is too high. The literature [ Wai-Hau Ng; Eng-Hock Lim; Fwee-Leong Bong; a folding slot Antenna using foam as a substrate is provided in book-Kuan Chung.folded Page Antenna With Tunable Inductive Slots and Stubs for UHF Tag design. IEEE Transactions on Antennas and propagation.Yeast: 2018, Volume:66, Issue:6, pages: 2799 and 2806], and the folding slot Antenna uses a C-shaped groove and an L-shaped groove to adjust the resonant frequency and has the advantage of conformal characteristic; but has the disadvantages of complicated structure and difficult processing and production. Literature [ Cai-Wei Moh; Eng-Hock Lim; Fwee-Leong Bong; a foldable Coplanar feeder-powered flexible Folded antenna is designed for book-Kuan Chung, miniature Coplanar antenna-Fed Folded antenna for Metal Mountable UHF RFID tag, IEEE Transactions on Antennas and Propagation, Yeast: 2018, Volume:66, Issue:5, pages: 2245 and 2253, a C-shaped groove is added to increase the capacitance property, an etching notch is used to increase the tuning range, and a stub can be used for effectively tuning the impedance of a tag antenna; however, the thickness of the adhesive is 3mm, and the adhesive does not have the characteristic of low profile, and is not easy to be adhered to the metal surface. The documents [ y. -h.lee, p. -s.chee, e. -h.limandf. -l.bang, "Coupled-PILAs for minor On-metal RFID Tag Design,"2020IEEE Asia-Pacific Microwave Conference (APMC), Hong Kong,2020, pp.878-880, doi: 10.1109/APMC47863.2020.9331605 ] propose a Tag antenna for micro-metals, which is magnetically Coupled by two planar inverted-L antennas acting as a radiator and a coupler, respectively, to achieve miniaturization, ideally achieving a read distance of 8m at an operating frequency of 4W, but with a general gain performance and a large size.
For the application requirement of the tag adhered on the metal surface, the effectiveness of communication between the reader antenna and the tag antenna is considered, the problems of low profile and size of the tag antenna are also considered, and the wear-resistant characteristic of the tag is considered.
For this reason, improvements in existing tag antennas are needed.
