Study of adaptive tuning strategies for Near Field Communication (NFC) transmitter module

In this paper, adaptive tuning strategies for Near Field Communication (NFC) transmitter module are investigated. The objective is to perform auto-adjustment of the matching network associated with the transmitter antenna in order to compensate the influence of the receiver antenna. Two different strategies are studied, aiming at maintaining a constant emitted magnetic field or a constant current consumption.
