Abstract

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is a rapidly growing technology with significant security implications for humans and military ambushes. In this paper, the hardware implementation of a chipless RFID system using highly efficient Texas instrumentation components is introduced. We introduced the hardware implementation of both RFID reader and 5-bits chipless tags. The proposed reader system is equipped with an ultra-wideband (UWB) radio frequency (RF) power detector that allows the reader to read different types of tags with different code lengths over the frequency range from  to . The proposed spiral resonators based RFID tags are fabricated using microstrip technology on a cheap FR4 lossy substrate with a dielectric constant of , loss tangent , and thickness . The tags are designed using the computer simulation technology (CST) microwave studio software package. Fortunately, it is found that the experimental measurements of the scattering parameters of the fabricated tags are highly matched to the simulation results.
