How does I1 change when switching takes place in secondary (Tag) ?
Let R2’ < R2
When switch moves from position 1 to 2:
Current in secondary ↑

Increases with
• Low R1 (High Reader Q)
• High R2 (Low tag chip dissipation – High Tag Q)
• High k (coupling coefficient)
• Higher C2 (Lower L2) (Tag tank capacitance)
Above relationship is approximate – need to use with caution
Detailed analysis/simulation is often necessary

If XC2 ~ R2’, then equivalent series capacitance becomes > C2
f02 ↓ and may be < operating frequency
 Self-impedance of Tag: Inductive
 Transient behavior: slow

Bandwidth Requirement
19
• Trade-off between Q (range) and
Bandwidth (data rate)
– ISO 14443 : 106 Kb/s, < 10cm
– ISO 15693 : 26.5 Kb/s, < 30 cm
• Sub-carrier
– Higher with higher data rate
– ISO 14443 : 847 KHz
– ISO 15693 : 484 KHz

Tag
Selected close to 13.56
MHz
Sometimes higher than
13.56 MHz
• Less detuning
(choking) effect for
multi-tag scenario
• Pulse merge
25
Q factor
Reader
• Limited by
– Bandwidth
– Close range operation
(Blind Spot)
• Unloaded Q on PCB
can be high (~50) but
loaded (output
resistance of chip)
brings loaded Q
down.
Tag
• Limited by
– Bandwidth
– Close range operation
(Blind Spot)
• ESR of tag coil
matched to ESR of
chip-capacitor combo
for maximum power
transfer
– Matching network used
26
Switched Resistance
Reader
• NA
Tag
• Modulation depth
increases with low
R2’
• Too low R2’ tends to
make Tag inductive
during switched state
and may degrade
transient response
27
Tank Inductor, Capacitor
Reader
• Large L (low C) helps
to increase M (power
transfer)
Tag
• Large L (low C) helps
to increase M (power
transfer)
• Large C (low L)
– might help load
modulation
– Less spread in
manufacturing
(reduced effect from
parasitics)
15 to 50 pF is common
28

Motivation:
Stray capacitance creating common mode currents
Reduction of effective M

Tag and Reader Application
Requirement of Tag to be
attached on or close to
metallic surfaces
Acting as Reader
Or
Acting as Tag
Antenna could be close to metal
32
Automated Inventory with ‘Smart Shelf’
HF system allows more precise location than UHF
• HF Reader antenna laid out on metal shelves
need spacers
– Wasted space
– Inconvenience

Current Carrying Coil near a Metal Sheet
~
Metal
Magnetic field has only tangential component over perfect conductor
-no normal component
Surface (eddy) currents are generated on metal to satisfy above
boundary condition

Magnetic Field from a Current Carrying Loop

36
Performance Degradation
• Magnetic field generated by eddy current opposes
excitation field
• Total flux linked by coil ↓=> Inductance ↓=> Resonant
frequency↑ (Mistuning)
• Flux linked by secondary loop ↓ => Deterioration in
power and signal transfer

 mr.t determines shielding effectiveness
 Low cost dielectric spacers help, but need
to be much thicker than ferrite for same
performance
 0.1 mm ferrite sheet (FK03 – NEC Tokin) allows Tags
to be installed on metal surfaces. Dielectric spacers
need few cm gap
 Loss in ferrite (mr’’) adds additional loss
and need to be maintained within limits
