Abstract

The invention relates to a backward reflecting modulation tag with light as a medium and a reader-writer system. A tag body and a reader-writer are included. The tag comprises a thin film solar cell panel which is used for obtaining energy from light emitted by the reader-writer and ambient light, a backward reflecting thin film for backward reflecting, a liquid crystal light valve for carrying out modulation on light reflecting, a liquid crystal light valve modulation circuit and a first photosensitive diode for receiving reader-writer signals. The liquid crystal light valve adheres to the backward reflecting thin film. The reader-writer comprises an LED for emitting visible light or infrared light, an LED driving and modulation circuit, a microcontroller, and a second photosensitive diode. The backward reflecting modulation tag has the advantages that the passive tag-tag reader-writer system with light as the medium is provided, through the backward reflecting features of the backward reflecting thin film on light, compared with radio-frequency signals, the decay rate is greatly lowered, the tag body uses the thin film solar cell, reading-writing distance is improved, and the power consumption of the reader-writer is lowered.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a retroreflection modulation passive label-reading system with light as the medium, which belongs to the field of electricity. Background technique [0002] Traditional passive tag-reader systems are generally based on radio frequency identification (RFID). RFID is a non-contact automatic identification technology. Its working principle is that the reader emits a wireless electromagnetic wave of a specific frequency to drive the approaching electronic tag to send its internal data. At this time, the reader receives and interprets the data. Send it to the application program for corresponding processing. The tag obtains energy through the coupling of the RF signal emitted by the reader, and by modulating its own impedance, modulates the RF carrier emitted by the reader and reflects it back to the reader. Therefore, the tag does not need to transmit radio frequency signals independently, which greatly reduces the power consumpt...
