RFID Modulation and Coding• Backscatter radio has different requirements
than conventional radio links– Must supply power to passive RF tags.
– Must manage spectral efficiency to avoid interference.
– The need for low-complexity RF tags limits modulation and coding options

Reader-to-Tag Communication• Modulation
– Double-sideband amplitude shift keying (DSB-ASK)
– Single-sideband ASK (SSB-ASK)
– Phase-reversal ASK (PR-ASK)
• Coding– Pulse-interval encoding (PIE)

Reader Modulation• Why ASK?
– Must provide power to passive RF tags
– Must be detectable by the RF tag
• OOK – does not provide constant power to the RF tag
• PSK – requires fairly complex receiver
• ASK – can be detected with a simple envelope detector.

• The frequency bands available to RF tag systems are divided into channels.
• These channels are designated by FCC’s Part 15 regulations.
• 500 kHz is the maximumchannel BW
• If the number of channels is greater than 50, the maximum conducted power is 1W.

Reader Spectrum Control
Copyright 2009 9
• Interference from other readers can easily disrupt backscatter communication.
![Page 10: The Fundamentals of Backscatter Radio and RFID … for Multi -Antenna Backscatter RFID at 5.8 GHz,” in Proceedings of the 2009 International IEEE Conference on RFID, Orlando, FL,](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013006/5abaec7e7f8b9ad1768c1ea9/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Reader Spectrum Control• Single interrogator mode
– Gen 2 standard outlines no spectral requirements
• Multiple interrogator mode– Gen 2 standard specifies spectral constraints to limit
interference in the adjacent channels– Usually accomplished by slowing the data rate or
smoothing the edges of the reader waveform
• Dense interrogator mode– Allows tags to be read when all adjacent channels are
occupied– Uses PR-ASK modulation

RFID Communication Protocols• Over the years, there have been several
protocols used by the RFID community.
• Two early standards that were developed (but never officially ratified) are:– EPCglobal Generation 1 Class 0
– EPCglobal Generation 1 Class 1
• ISO 18000-6A and -6B – developed for European use, but -6B was implemented in the U.S. by Intermec (Intellitag).

– Reader talk first– Tags can be read, written, and killed in the field.– Flexible data rates– Provides methods for spectral control to avoid
interference– Uses a Slotted-Aloha algorithm to mitigate data
collisions

Spread Spectrum RFID
• What is spread spectrum?– A technique to “spread” the transmitted signal
over a wide frequency spectrum.
– The spread spectrum technique has roots in military applications.
• Harder to detect (low probability-of-intercept) than narrowband signals.
• Harder to jam than narrowband signals.
– Spread Spectrum Techniques• Frequency Hopping
• Direct Sequence

Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum• What is it?
– The transmitter and receiver must hop from one frequency to the next in a pseudorandom fashion.
– Requires synchronization of the transmitter and receiver which is easy is most RFID readers since they are collocated.

![Page 31: The Fundamentals of Backscatter Radio and RFID … for Multi -Antenna Backscatter RFID at 5.8 GHz,” in Proceedings of the 2009 International IEEE Conference on RFID, Orlando, FL,](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013006/5abaec7e7f8b9ad1768c1ea9/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum
• Minimum frequency spacing is the smaller of 25 kHz or the 20 dB channel bandwidth.
• Number of channels:– At least 50 if channel BW ≤ 250 kHz
– At least 25 if channel 250 ≤ BW ≤ 500 kHz
• If number of channels less than 50, then P = .25 W, else P = 1 W.
• Must use each channel equally.
• Channel occupancy limited to 0.4 seconds in any 10 second window

– Spectrum of the data waveform is spread using a pseudorandom noise (PN) code.
– PN code – a code whose second order statistics approximate that of noise.
– Many PN codes have been developed
• Maximal-length codes (m-sequence)
• Many other codes available as well

RFID Spread-Spectrum Applications• An RFID reader must have a way to
differentiate the signals coming from multiple tags.– If all tags respond to the interrogator at once, data
collisions will occur and the read attempt will be unsuccessful.
• RFID tags usually use one of two algorithms to control medium access:– Binary tree algorithm
– Slotted Aloha algorithm (Gen 2 RF tags)

Use of Higher Frequencies• Most backscatter RF tags (in the U.S.) operate
in the 902-928 MHz frequency band.– This is an unlicensed band for industrial, scientific,
and medical use (ISM band).
– This band falls under Part 15 of the FCC rules.
• Some tags also use the 2400-2483.5 MHz band
• Another frequency band is available at 5725-5850 MHz

Advantages of Higher Frequency
Copyright 2009 73
• Smaller Antennas– Allow multiple antennas to be used on an RF tag
without increasing its footprint
– Allow for compact antenna arrays at the reader
– Easier to use multiple antennas on the reader and RF tag

Advantages of Higher Frequency

• Increased Antenna Gain– For fixed aperture, antenna gain increase as
wavelength decreases
– As gain increases, so does directivity.

Advantages of Higher Frequency• Increased Object Immunity
– As the frequency increases, the electrical separation between an RF tag antenna and an object will increase

– The 5725 – 5850 MHz ISM frequency band has 125 MHz of bandwidth compared to 26 MHz in the 902-928 MHz band.
