Dans cet article, les signaux harmoniques générés par les puces RFID UHF, généralement considérés comme des effets parasites et non utilisés, sont exploités. En effet, les signaux harmoniques sont collectés pour alimenter un circuit supplémentaire associé à un tag RFID passif. Deux approches sont présentées et comparées. Dans la première approche, le signal harmonique est combiné avec un signal Wi-Fi externe à 2,45 GHz. L'intégration se fait de telle manière que le signal composite augmente le rendement de conversion du circuit de récupération d'énergie. Dans la seconde approche, le signal harmonique est utilisé comme seule source d'énergie alimentant un capteur de température commercial associé au tag. Les procédures de conception des deux « tags augmentés » sont présentées. Les performances de chaque système sont simulées avec le logiciel ADS, en utilisant l'outil Harmonique Balance (HB) ; les résultats obtenus au moyen de simulations et de mesures sont aussi comparés.
In this paper, the harmonic signals generated by UHF RFID chips, usually considered as spurious effects and unused, are exploited. Indeed, the harmonic signals are harvested to feed a supplementary circuitry associated with a passive RFID tag. Two approaches are presented and compared. In the first one, the third-harmonic signal is combined with an external 2.45-GHz Wi-Fi signal. The integration is done in such a way that the composite signal boosts the conversion efficiency of the energy harvester. In the second approach, the third-harmonic signal is used as the only source of a harvester that energizes a commercial temperature sensor associated with the tag. The design procedures of the two “augmented-tag” approaches are presented. The performance of each system is simulated with ADS software, and using Harmonic Balance tool (HB), the results obtained in simulation and measurements are compared also.
