Patent number: 10560156Abstract: In a general aspect, a method can include producing, by an inductive antenna circuit, a first periodic signal that is based on an alternating external magnetic field; producing, by an oscillator circuit, a second periodic signal that is based on the first periodic signal; and transmitting, in correspondence with a data-carrying modulation signal, a sequence of data bits. The transmitting can include sequentially and repetitively: applying, with the oscillator circuit operating in a free oscillation mode, the second periodic signal to the inductive antenna circuit; and inhibiting, with the oscillator circuit operating in a synchronous oscillation mode, application of the second periodic signal to the inductive antenna circuit. The synchronous oscillation mode of the oscillator circuit can cause the second periodic signal to be synchronized to the first periodic signal.Type: GrantFiled: April 6, 2018Date of Patent: February 11, 2020Assignee: VERIMATRIXInventors: Frédéric Bernard, Nicolas Cordier, Florian Pernisek, Bruno Charrat
