Dual resonant antenna circuit for RF tags

摘要

A two-way communication system is provided having a stationary device and a portable passive device. The portable passive device has circuitry for storing and transmitting coded information. The stationary member transmits a signal at a first frequency via magnetic field and the portable passive device transmits coded information stored on circuitry provided therein at a second frequency also via a magnetic field. An antenna circuit is provided in the portable passive device having a parallel resonant circuit and a series resonant circuit. The parallel resonant circuit derives operating power from the signal at a first frequency for use in the circuitry provided in the portable passive device. The series resonant circuit transmits coded information at a second frequency.
