A Digital Receiver Architecture for RFID Readers

Overview This paper presents a digital receiver architecture for an RFID reader. The main challenge in RFID reader design is the detection of the backscattered signals from the tags, which can be severely complicated due to the largely varying scale of possible receive powers. Furthermore noise, which power depends on the environment can degrade the detection performance. The detection of the signals of the tags is additionally impeded by the very strong self interference at the reader with the carrier needs to send in order to supply the tags with energy.
