MASTERS OF SCIENCE RESEARCH PROJECT
Title: Design of a 2.45 GHz Power Splitter for RF-CMOS ISM RFID Reader Circuit.
Abstract: The recent demand for automatic radio frequency identification (RFID) tags has triggered research for accompanying miniature, low-power reader circuits. Implementations of such circuits using conventional integrated fabrication techniques are desirable due to the low cost, reduction in parasitics and small-size. This research project illustrates the design of a RF-CMOS power splitter for an RFID reader circuit to serve the ISM 2.45 GHz band. The power splitter design is based on a Wilkinson power divider and utilizes on-chip inductors and capacitors. The design utilizes the 0.18 µm Silterra RF-CMOS technology. The overall power splitter circuit is simulated using AWR Microwave Office®, indicating its S21 and S31 transmission characteristics. The individual inductors were designed using Sonnet® to obtain the appropriate inductance at 2.45 GHz. Further refinement of the inductor layout design will be done using CST® to incorporate the effect of composite layer. Capacitor layout and simulation will be performed using Cadence®.
ENDOWMENT FUND IIUM RESEARCH PROJECT
Title: The development of power control module in RFID reader circuit design
Abstract: Radio frequency identification (RFID) is the latest technology for automatic identification which allows the transmission of a unique serial number wirelessly. RFID is expected to be the alternative and improvement of next generation barcode technology. Power control module of RFID reader is used to perform digital signal processing techniques and procedures over the received data from the RFID transponders. It is the main control board for receiving and transmitting data. It enables the reader to communicate with the transponders by performing anti-collision procedures, modulation, and coding data for the transponders. The key focus of the research is to design and implementation a new platform of power control module for RFID reader. Moreover, power splitter, power attenuator, and power amplifier will be used for controlling the whole RFID reader architecture. Schematic and simulation will be designed proposed model. Finally, the design will be modeled using Mentors Graphics DA-IC tools.
