Disclosed are a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tag and a method for controlling the same which may receive/transmit data from/to an RFID reader even at a relatively long distance. The RFID tag includes a modulation unit for modulating data requested from an RFID reader to generate a first transmission signal including the modulated data, a transmission amplification unit for amplifying the generated first transmission signal to output a second transmission signal, and a transmission antenna unit for transmitting the outputted second transmission signal to the RFID reader.

Provided is an antenna based on proximity coupling between a short-ended microstrip feed line and a radiation patch, an RFID tag including the planar antenna, and an antenna impedance matching method thereof. The antenna includes a radiation patch configured to determine a resonant frequency of the antenna; a ground plate disposed in parallel to the radiation patch; and a feeding part disposed between the radiation patch and the ground plate and configured to provide radio frequency signals to a device connected to the antenna. The feeding part includes a feed line that is formed in a resonance length direction of the radiation patch and proximity-coupled with the radiation patch and one end of the feed line is shorted. The antenna freely controls the resistance and reactance of the antenna impedance independently and efficiently matched to a device connected to the antenna which has a predetermined impedance in wide bands.

According to the present invention, the apparatus receives a radio frequency (RF) signal transmitted from the Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) reader, measures the strength of the received RF signal, and controls the power supplied from the power supply unit included in the tag or the power excited by the RF signal to be supplied to the tag according to whether the power excited by the received RF signal exceeds a level necessary to operate the tag based on the measured strength of the RF signal. Thus, efficiency of power consumption of the tag and the RFID transmission/reception system can be maximized and the amount of data is reduced to the extent that the set of commands is not needed, thereby simplifying a data process.

Provided is a method for transmitting sensing information in a wireless sensor network including a pair node. The method for transmitting sensing information in a wireless sensor network including a sink node, parent nodes, and sensor nodes set as pair nodes among sensor nodes connected to the parent nodes, includes the steps of: a) setting up predetermined sensor nodes in the same target area as pair nodes for transmitting and receiving sensing information to/from corresponding sensor nodes; b) at the pair nodes, transmitting first sensing information sensed by oneself to corresponding sensor nodes; c) at the sensor nodes, transmitting first sensing information sensed by oneself and second sensing information transmitted from corresponding pair nodes to the parent node; and d) at the parent node, transmitting the received first and second sensing information to the sink node at the same time.

A battery-powered RFID tag capable of reducing power consumption and a method of waking up the RFID tag are provided. The battery-powered RFID tag has an activated mode where a general command is detected by decoding a signal received from an RFID tag reader and the general command is executed and a standby mode where the general command is not detected. If a voltage of a continuous wave detected from the signal is equal to or higher than a predetermined voltage or if a wake-up command is detected from the signal, the state of the RFID tag is changed from the standby mode to the activated mode. In addition, the RFID tag is driven by a higher one between the voltage of the continuous wave and a voltage of a built-in battery.

Provided is a radio frequency identification (RFID) sensor tag antenna using an aperture coupling feeding method, including: a radiation patch for determining a resonance frequency of the RFID sensor tag antenna, which is disposed in an uppermost portion of the RFID sensor tag antenna; a first dielectric layer disposed on a bottom surface of the radiation patch and interposed between the radiation patch and a ground layer disposed to be parallel with the radiation patch; and a slot formed in a side of the ground layer and coupling RF signals to the RFID sensor tag antenna. Thus, the RFID sensor tag antenna can separately adjust resistance and reactance components of input impedance. As a result, the RFID sensor tag antenna can be matched with an RFID sensor tag board without an additional matching circuit.

The polymer package for the film battery and the combined package and current collector include a multi-layered polymer film having a construction of at least three layers, which includes a first polymer film, a second polymer film, and a third polymer film, the first, second, and third polymer films being made of different materials. The first polymer film is made of a hydrocarbon compound which is unsubstituted or substituted by a fluorine (F) atom. The second polymer film is made of an amorphous polymer. The third polymer film is made of a polymer having a tensile strength of a predetermined value or more and a tensile modulus of a predetermined value or more. In the combined package and current collector, a conductive layer is disposed on a surface of the multi-layered polymer film.

Provided is a method for buffering a receive packet in a sensor node including a radio frequency (RF) transceiver, a media access control (MAC) hardware block and a micro controller unit (MCU). The method includes the steps of: a) if a packet is received from the RF transceiver, checking whether or not a packet which is pre-stored in a receive first in first out (FIFO) exists; b) if the pre-stored packet exists in the receive FIFO at step a), checking whether a length of the received packet is the same with the length of the pre-stored packet in the receive FIFO; c) if the length of the received packet is the same with the length of the pre-stored packet in the receive FIFO at the step b), increasing the number of packet which is included in header information, and buffering a physical payload in the receive FIFO; and d) if the pre-stored packet does not exist in the receive FIFO at the step a) nor the length of the received packet is the same with the length of the pre-stored packet in the receive FIFO, consecutively buffering the physical payload with the header in the receive FIFO.
