Abstract

This invention relates to an RFID humidity sensor, comprising a substrate, a first tag antenna, a radio frequency identification chip, a coupled tag antenna coupled to the first tag antenna and disposed on the upper surface of the substrate, a moisture-sensitive polymer, and a metal ground. The invention also relates to a relative humidity detection method based on the RFID humidity sensor, comprising placing the RFID humidity sensor in the environment to be measured; a reader emitting a radio frequency signal of a preset power, the coupled tag antenna receiving the radio frequency signal, and, based on the linear relationship between the dielectric constant of the moisture-sensitive polymer and the ambient humidity, changing the power of the radio frequency signal and transmitting it to the first tag antenna so that it returns to the reader; the reader acquiring a first reflected power; acquiring a second reflected power after the change in ambient humidity, obtaining the change in amplitude between the first reflected power and the second reflected power; and comparing with a pre-acquired linear relationship table between the change in reflected power amplitude and the change in ambient humidity to obtain the current ambient humidity.
