Tx天線可在足夠低之頻率下及在天線大小足夠大之情況 下進仃操作,以在顯著地大於藉由早先所提及之遠場及電 0 感方法所允許之距離的距離下達成至小Rx天線之良好耦合 (例如,>·4 dB)。若Tx天線經正確地定大小,則當將主機 裝置上之RX天線置放於受驅動Τχ環圈天線之耦合模式區内 (亦即,在近場中)時,可達成高耦合位準(例如,犯至 -4 dB)。 圖4為根據本發明之一例示性實施例之傳輸器的簡化方 塊圖。傳輪器200包括傳輸電路202及傳輸天線204。通 '吊傳輸電路202藉由提供導致在傳輸天線2〇4周圍產生近 ◎ 昜此i之振盪彳§號而將RF功率提供至傳輸天線204。藉由 貫例傳輪器200可在13.56 MHz ISM頻帶下進行操作。 例不性傳輸電路2〇2包括:固定阻抗匹配電路2〇6,其用 於使傳輸電路2〇2之阻抗(例如,5〇歐姆)匹配於傳輸天線 4,及低通濾波器(lpf)2〇8,其經組態以將諳波發射減 少至防止耦合至接收器1〇8(圖丨)之裝置之自干擾的位準。 他例示)·生貝施例可包括不同濾波器拓撲(包括(但不限於) 使特疋頻率衰減而同時使其他頻率通過的陷波濾波器卜 且可匕括自適應阻抗匹配,其可基於可量測傳輸量度(諸 146707.doc 201042884 如’至天線之輸出功率或藉 m a,- 冰 刀千孜大态所汲取之DC電 ::?化。傳輸電路202進-步包括功率放大器… 傳輸天線2G4之例示性_率輪出可為大二二。 傳輸電路202進一步句鉍卢押-… 接收器針對特定 又(次作用時間循環)期間啟用振盪器212、 於凋整振盪器之頻率,且用於調整用於實施通信協定以 7經由鄰㈣置之附接式接收器而與鄰近裝置互動的輸 率位準。如稍後所論述,處理器叫亦可經組態以在 一預定時間間隔期間回應於至少一充電模式或根據一充電 排程來啟動傳輪器及撤銷啟動傳輸器,或啟用傳輸器而產 生輻射場或停用傳輪器而不產生輻射場。 傳輸電路202可進一步包括負載感測電路216,其用於偵 測在藉由傳輸天線2〇4所產生之近場附近存在或不存在主 動接,器。藉由實例,負載感測電路216監視流動至功率 放大器210之電流’該電流受在藉由傳輸天線綱所產生之 近場附近存在或不存在线接收器影響。藉由處理器214 來監視對功率放大器21〇上之負載之改變的㈣,以用於 判定是否啟用振盪器212以傳輸能量以與主動接收器通 信0 傳輸天線204可實施為天線條帶(antenna strip),其中厚 度、寬度及金屬類型經選擇成使電阻性損失保持為低。在 習知實施中,傳輪天線2〇4通常可經組態用於與較大結構 146707.doc -10- 201042884 (諸如,工作台、墊塊、燈具或其他不便攜帶之組態)相關 聯。因^,傳輪天線204通常將不需要「區數(turns)」,以 便具有實際尺寸。傳輪天線204之例示性實施可為「電學 上小的」(亦即,波長之分數),且經調諧以藉由使用電容 器來界疋4振頻率而在較低可用頻率下譜振。在傳輸天線 204之直徑或邊長(若為正方形環圈)相料接收天線可較大 Ο
