Abstract
We introduce hybrid transformer-based adaptive RF front
end for UHF RFID readers. Small, narrow band antennas
with high radiation efficiency can be utilised with an
adaptive tuning of the antenna. The adaptivity also
increases immunity to environmental changes, like
detuning of the antenna by user hand. The hybrid
transformer-based front end provides high isolation from
TX to RX and eliminates the need for a cumbersome and
expensive circulator. The small size of the module
including the antenna enables integration to mobile
phones. (5 refs.)
