DEMODULATION APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR RFID READER IN PASSIVE RFID ENVIRONMENT

摘要

A demodulation apparatus for a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) reader includes: a direct current (DC) offset cancellation unit for cancelling DC-offset noise contained in a PSK-modulated or ASK-modulated subcarrier tag signal from the tag signal when the tag signal is received; and a subcarrier digital demodulator for eliminating a subcarrier from the tag signal from which DC-offset noise has been cancelled to demodulate the DC-offset noise-cancelled tag signal.
