    摘要: A multimode transceiver circuit comprises a four port coupler of a type which splits a signal applied to one port between two of the other ports. The split signals are phase shifted by a known amount. A first port of the coupler is for receiving a signal and for outputting a signal therefrom. A controllable oscillator is connected to a second port of the coupler and switchable impedances (Schottky diodes) are connected to the remaining ports. A controller is provided for controlling the operation of the oscillator and the impedances to determine the mode of operation of the circuit. In one mode of operation, the oscillator is inoperative and at least one of the impedances is switched to operate as a non-linear impedance such that the circuit detects amplitude modulation of the signal applied to the first port. In a further mode of operation, the oscillator is operable and both impedances are switched to operate as non-linear impedance elements such that they operate as a mixer to produce an intermediate frequency signal in dependence on the signal applied to the first port. In yet a further mode of operation, the oscillator is operable, and the impedances are switched such that the oscillator frequency appears at the first port for transmission therefrom.

    摘要: A radio frequency identification (RFID) tag includes an antenna configuration coupled to an RFID chip, such as in an RFID strap. The antenna configuration is mounted on one face (major surface) of a dielectric material, and includes compensation elements to compensate at least to some extent for various types of dielectric material upon which the antenna configuration may be mounted. In addition, a conductive structure, such as a ground plane or other layer of conductive material, may be placed on a second major surface of the dielectric layer, on an opposite side of the dielectric layer from the antenna structure.

    摘要: An RFID device includes conductive tabs, and a conductive structure, with a dielectric layer between the conductive tabs and the conductive structure. The conductive structure overlaps the conductive tabs and acts as a shield, allowing the device to be at least somewhat insensitive to the surface upon which it is mounted, or to the presence of nearby objects, such as goods in a carton or other container that includes the device. The dielectric layer may be a portion of the container, such as an overlapped portion of the container. Alternatively, the dielectric layer may be a separate layer, which may vary in thickness, allowing one of the conductive tabs to be capacitively coupled to the conductive structure. As another alternative, the dielectric layer may be an expandable substrate that may be expanded after fabrication operations, such as printing.
