In this paper, we developed a RFID tag antenna using one-sheet inlay pattern which consist of two different frequencies in one layer. The antenna in one-sheet inlay RFID tag does not use different kind RFID antennas in a card but implement 13.56MHz and 900MHz RFID tag antennas in one sheet. In order to evaluate the usability of proposed method, we configured test equipments and designed 6 different patterns and test the recognition distance of each pattern. Among the one-sheet inlay RFID tag antenna designs, the pattern no.5 has good performance with recognition distance of 5.34m at 900MHz and 3.5m at 13.56MHz.

This paper has implemented a very small($1.4{\times}2.8[Cm^2]$) 13.56[MHz] RFID reader ensuring machine ID recognition correctly in a noise space of Tag-to-Reader within 3Cm. For operation of the RFID system, at first, this paper has designed the loop antenna of a reader and the fading model of back-scattering on microwave propagation following to 13.56[MHz] RFID Air Interface ISO/IEC specification. Secondly, this paper has proposed the automatically path selected RF switching circuit and the firmware operation relationship by measuring and analyzing the very small RFID RF issues. Finally, as a very small reader main body, this paper has shown the DSP board and software functions made for extraction of $1{\sim}2$ machine ID information and error prevention simultaneously with carrying of 13.56[MHz] RFID signals that the international standard specification ISO/IEC 18000-3 defined.

In this paper, a bike management system using 900 MHz RFID technology has been developed. There are limits to the 13.56 MHz spectrum of existing management systems, which are single tag identification and the short possible identifying distance of the technology. In this paper, we use 900 MHz instead of 13.56 MHz in order to make wide recognition and multi-tag identification possible. Granted, there are also many benefits to using 13.56 MHz RFID tags, which include compatibility with existing bike management systems. This system was developed on the 900 MHz band using RFID similarly to existing 13.56 MHz systems in order to be able to manage multiple bikes at the same time.

In this paper, we design a high efficiency class E power amplifier operating at low drain bias voltage for wireless power transfers. A 13.56 MHz power amplifier is designed at drain bias voltage of 12.5 V using Si MOSFET with the breakdown voltage of 40 V. High quality-factor solenoidal inductor is designed and fabricated for use in output matching circuit to improve output power and efficiency. Input matching circuit simply consists of resistor and inductor to reduce the circuit area and improve the stability. The fabricated power amplifier shows the measured output power of 38.6 dBm with the gain of 16.6 dB and power added efficiency of 89.3 % at 13.56 MHz.

Although all printed cost-less radio frequency identification (RFID) tags have been considered as a core tool for bringing up a ubiquitous society, the difficulties in integrating thin film transistors (TFTs), diodes and capacitors on plastic foils using a single in-line printing method nullify their roles for the realization of the ubiquitous society1,2. To prove the concept of all printed cost-less RFID tag, the practical degree of the integration of those devices on the plastic foils should be successfully printed to demonstrate multi bit RFID tag. The tag contains key device units such as 13.56 MHz modulating TFT, digital logic gates and 13.56 MHz rectifier to generate and transfer multi bit digital codes via a wireless communication (13.56 MHz). However, those key devices have never been integrated on the plastic foils using printing method yet because the electrical fluctuation of fully printed TFTs and diodes on plastic foils could not be controlled to show the function of desired devices. In this work, fully gravure printing process in printing 13.56 MHz operated 32 bit RFID tags on plastic foils has been demonstrated for the first time to prove all printed RFID tags on plastic foils can wirelessly generate and transfer 32 bit digital codes using the radio frequency of 13.56 MHz. This result proved that the electrical fluctuations of printed TFTs and diodes on plastic foils should be controlled in the range of maximum 20% to properly operate 32 bit RFID tags.

This paper proposes a rectifier using bootstrapping and active body biasing in $0.11{\mu}m$ RF CMOS process. The proposed rectifier employs the full-wave rectifying structure with cross coupling and increases the power conversion efficiency by reducing the threshold voltage and leakage current using bootstrapping and active bias biasing. Also, it has been designed to be applied to a wide range of applications from 13.56 MHz used in wireless power transmission to 915 MHz used in RFID. As a measured result, 80 % of power conversion efficiency is obtained when the input power is 0 dBm at $10k{\Omega}$ load resistance and 13.56 MHz. Also 40 % of power conversion efficiency is shown in 915 MHz.

This paper is a study on the implementation of internet phone for silver generation based on RFID system. Together with the development of internet, the commercial internet phone is being used widely. However the usage of internet phone is still not convenient with silver generation. In this paper, we use one of the internet phone type called application method and 13.56MHz RFID technology to improve the usage of internet phone. The new silver internet phone can make a phone call only by using RFID tag that has a picture or some information of callee.

The RFID tag IC has been presently abstracting great attention in the world because it can be one of the important sensor elements in the ubiquitous sense network in the future. The 125 kHz and 13.56 MHz RFID tag IC's have already been developed and now widely used in the world and the UHF band tag IC is under development. Domestically, the development of the 125 kHz tag IC was reported before, but there has been no report about the development of the 13.56 MHz tag IC up to now. In this paper, the results of the design, fabrication and measurement of a 13.56 MHz tag IC are discussed. The digital and the analog circuits for the chip were designed and the chip was fabricated using 0.35 ㎛ standard CMOS technology and measured with a separately prepared reader. It was found from the measurement results that it operated properly within 8 cm range of the reader.

This paper presents a 13.56 MHz RFID reader that can be used as a door-lock system for smart home security. The RFID reader consists of a transmitter, a receiver, and a data processing block. To verify the operation of the developed RFID reader, we present both a PSPICE simulation for transmitter/receiver and a digital simulation for data processing block. In particular, a CRC block for error detection of received data and a Manchester decoding block for position detection of collided data are designed using VHDL. In addition, we applied a binary search algorithm for multi-tag anti-collision. The anti-collision procedure is carried out by PIC microcontroller on software. The experimental results show that the developed reader can provide the right multi-tag recognition.

This paper presents a high-efficiency current mode class-D(CMCD) power amplifier for the 13.56 MHz band using a Guanella's 1:1 transmission-line transformer and filtering circuits at the output network. The second and third s are filtered out in the load network of the class-D amplifier. The implemented CMCD power amplifier exhibited a power gain of 13.4 dB and a high power-added efficiency(PAE) of 84.6 % at an output power of 44.4 dBm using the 13.56 MHz CW input signal. The second and third distortion levels were -50.3 dBc and -46.4 dBc at the same output power level, respectively.
