Wireless RF Identification System Based on SAW

The passive RF identification system is discussed in this paper. The system uses the surface acoustic wave (SAW) as an identification tag and works at ISM-915 MHz. The system adopts a pair of passive dispersive SAW filters for pulse expansion and compression in order to improve antijamming performance and degrade the severe requirement for sensitivity of a wideband receiver. Then, the structure of the SAW tag, the principle of transmitter and receiver, and the DSP subsystem are discussed. Finally, testing results are demonstrated.
