The passive system requires RF-DC converter. RF-DC converter, which is used in microwave region, is more affected by parasitic elements than used in low frequency region. So it is difficult to make the converter. RF-DC converter usually consists of resonator, shottky diode, capacitor, voltage regulator. In this study, we used the rechargeable battery instead of capacitor. If any passive transponder requires more power than general transponder, battery tech of this components is important to apply for the passive system. In this paper, passive transponder, which requires more power than general passive transponder, is presented and compared to general passive transponder.

Depending upon the existence of the battery, transponder is divided into active and passive transponder. The passive transponder operates without battery and so has no limitation in its operating range and life time. But it needs the RF-DC conversion circuit. In this paper, the analysis and design of the RF-DC conversion circuit in passive transponder operated in high frequency is presented and is confirmed by simulation and experiment.

In this paper, we introduce a new passive transponder that operates without external power in a visible light identification system. The transponder consists of a solar cell, a photodiode, a microprocessor, and a visible LED. When a reader sends light to the transponder, the solar cell generates current from the reader light and supplies power to the other elements in the transponder. At the same time, the photodiode detects the pulse in the reader light and initiates a microprocessor to generate and send a responding light to the reader. In experiments, we realized a passive transponder using a solar cell that operated at a distance of 1m without external power.

In this paper, we newly developed a passive transponder for visible light identification (VLID) using ultrasonic wave. The solar cell in the transponder receives the reader light and generates current for supplying power to the transponder circuit. At the same time the solar cell detects the interrogating signal in the visible light from the reader. The transponder recognizes the interrogating signal and generates the responding signal using ultrasonic wave. In experiments, we used 40 kHz ultrasonic wave for the responding signal from the transponder. The maximum read distance was about 3.4 m when the transponder was exposed to the reader light of 24W LED array.

In this paper, we introduce a passive transponder in which an LED is used for both a light transmitter and a receiver, and a solar cell is used for supplying power to the all devices in the transponder. The LED in the transponder operates as a photodetector in the receiving mode, and acts as a light source in the transmitting mode. The current responsivity of the LED detector was measured to be in the order of $10^{-4}A/W$, and the receiving bandwidth with a load resistance of $10k{\Omega}$ was about 10 to 30 kHz. Using the LED for an optical transceiver in a VLID transponder, the detection range was about 70 cm when the transponder was illuminated by the visible light from a $3{\times}3$ LED array in a reader.

This paper describes the design and implementation of a passive transponder chip for RFID applications. Passive transponders do not have their own power supply, and therefore all power required for the operation of a passive transponder must be drawn from the field of the reader. The designed transponder consists of a full wave rectifier to generate a dc supply voltage, a 128-bit mask ROM to store the information, and Manchester coding and load modulation circuits to be used for transmitting the information from the transponder to the reader. The transponder with a size 410 x 900 ${\mu}$m$^2$ has been fabricated using 0.65 ${\mu}$m 2-poly, 2-metal CMOS process. The measurement results show the data transmission rate of 3.9 kbps at RF frequency 125 kHz.

Depending upon the existence of the battery, transponder is divided into active and passive transponder. The passive transponder operates without the inner battery and so has no limitation in its operating range and life time. But the power consumption in the smartcard should be low. In this paper, the analysis and design of the passive smartcard system oerated at 125kHz is presented and is confirmed by simulation and experiment.

In this paper, we newly introduce a wireless identification system using a solar cell and RF transceivers. The reader sends interrogating signal to a transponder using LED visible light, and the transponder responds to the reader using RF signal. The transponder consists of a solar cell, an amplifier, a microprocessor, and an RF transmitter. The solar cell receives the visible light from the reader and generates current to supply electric power to the other devices in the transponder. At the same time, the solar cell detects interrogating signal in the reader light. The microprocessor senses the interrogating signal and generates a responding signal. The RF transmitter radiates the responding signal to the reader. The transponder is a passive circuit because it operates without external power. In experiments, the maximum read distance between a reader and a transponder was about 1.6 meter.

Transponders of RFID system are classified as active or passive depending on the type of power supply they use. In passive transponders the data carrier has to obtain its power from the induced voltage. The induced voltage is converted into direct current using a low loss bridge rectifier and then smoothed. In practice, the induced voltage in the transponder coil is variable according to the coupling coefficient k and the load resistance ($R_L$). Therefore, the rectified voltage is unstable and the transponder of RFID is unstable sometimes. In this paper, a voltage-dependent shunt resistor ($R_s$) circuits are designed and inserted in parallel with the load resistance of RFID transponder in order to improve the stability of power.
