Chipless radiofrequency identification (RFID) technology is very promising for sensing, identification, and tracking for future Internet of Things (IoT) systems and applications. In this paper, we propose and demonstrate a compact 18-bit, dual polarized chipless RFID tag. The proposed tag is based on L-shaped resonators designed so as to maximize the spectral and spatial encoding capacities. The proposed RFID tag operates an over 4 GHz frequency band (i.e., 6.5 GHz to 10.5 GHz). The tag is simulated, fabricated, and tested in a nonanechoic milieu. The measured data have shown good agreement with the simulation results, with respect to resonators’ frequency positions, null depth, and null bandwidth over the operating spectrum. The proposed design achieves spectral and spatial encoding capacities of 4.5 bits/GHz and 18.8 bits/cm2, respectively. This, in turn, gives an encoding density of 4.7 bits/GHz/cm2. For code identification, we exploit the frequency content of the backscattered signals and identify similarity/correlation features with reference codes.

Chip-less radio frequency identification (RFID) technology is capable for detecting, identification, and chasing for the future Internet of Things (IoT) systems and applications. The chipless RFID technology gives us the impression as a rising substitute of the traditional RFID tags and barcodes by encoding data from tags employing the radio frequency waves. The paper presents the design as well as simulation of chip-less Plus shaped RFID tags. The structure is composed of Rogers RT/Duroid 5880 by means of a substrate having the physical dimensions 40mm x 40mm over which eight resonators are placed. This tag is compact, and the resonators are closely placed. The tag is designed using Ansys Electronics Desktop.

Abstract This paper presents a polarization-independent 11-bit chipless RFID tag based on frequency-selective surface which has been designed for encoding and relative humidity (RH) sensing applications. The 10 exterior U-shaped resonators are used for item encoding whereas Kapton has been incorporated with the interior resonator for RH sensing. This radio-frequency identification (RFID) tag operates in S- and C-frequency bands. The proposed design offers enhanced fractional bandwidth up to 88% with the density of 4.46 bits/cm2. Both single- and dual-layer tags have been investigated. The simulated results are in good agreement with measured results and a comparison with existing literature is presented to show the performance. Simple geometry, high code density, large frequency signature bandwidth, high magnitude bit, high radar cross-section, and angular stability for more than 75° are the unique outcomes of the proposed design. In addition, RH sensing has been achieved by integrating the Kapton on the same RFID tag.

Transmission And Reflection

Tag collision is one of the critical problems in radiofrequency identification (RFID) technology which can be widely used to identify objects using tag attachment automatically. Through the transmission and reflection of wireless radiofrequency signals, noncontact identification is realized. However, when multiple tags respond to the reader simultaneously, a collision occurs, significantly degrading the identification performance of RFID systems. To tackle the tag collisions, we propose a fast hybrid strategy-based RFID anticollision (FHS-RAC) protocol. Based on the conventional query tree algorithm, the proposed FHS-RAC makes full use of collision bits and the total response bits to achieve the faster tag identification. Extensive simulations and experiments verify the feasibility and effectiveness of our proposed scheme.

In this paper, a review of the state-of-the-art chipless radiofrequency identification (RFID) technology is carried out. This recent technology may provide low cost tags as long as these tags are not equipped with application specific integrated circuits (ASICs). Nevertheless, chipless-RFID presents a series of technological challenges that have been addressed by different research groups in the last decade. One of these challenges is to increase the data storage capacity of tags, in order to be competitive with optical barcodes, or even with chip-based RFID tags. Thus, the main aim of this paper is to properly clarify the advantages and disadvantages of chipless-RFID technology. Moreover, since the coding information is an important aspect in such technology, the different coding techniques, as well as the main figures of merit used to compare different chipless-RFID tags, will be analyzed.

The electromagnetic (EM) imaging technique at mm-band 60 GHz is proposed for data encoding purpose in the chipless Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) systems. The fully printable chipless RFID tag comprises tiny conductive EM polarizers to create high cross-polar radar cross-section. Synthetic aperture radar approach is applied for formation of the tag's EM-image and revealing the tag's content. The achieved high data encoding capacity of 2 bits/cm2in this technique based on a fully printable tag is very convincing for many applications. The system immunity to multipath interference, bending effect, and printing inaccuracy suggests huge potentials for low-cost item tagging. Tags are also readable through a tick paper envelop; hence secure identification is provided by the proposed technique.

Nowadays, the chipless radio frequency identification (RFID) tag is attracting significant attention owing to its immense potential in tracking. However, most of the chipless tags are fabricated on hard printed circuit boards, and the wearable fabric-based chipless tag is still in the research stage. In this paper, a symmetrical 3rd L-shaped multi-resonator wearable chipless RFID tag is designed and screen-printed onto fabric. In order to investigate the influence of the non-uniform conductive layer on the signal transmission at high frequency, the surface and cross-sectional topographies of the printed conductive film are analyzed and the frequency response characteristics are simulated and measured. The obtained results show that the common fabric can be used as the substrate to screen print the L-shaped multi-resonators of the chipless RFID tag, and the quality of the screen printed line, especially a narrow line, significantly affects the radio frequency performance. For the screen-printed 3rd L-shaped stub resonators, the relative frequency shift compared with the simulation results are 0.99%, 0.88% and 2.26%, respectively. Generally, the surface morphology of fabric and screen-printed precision are critical in improving the performance of L-shaped multi-resonators.
