Abstract: A microprogram for performing communication between an RFID smart tag and external digital sensors (EDS1, EDSK) is loaded in a buffer (Bu). A hard-wired dedicated processing unit (DPU) of the tag reads, decodes and executes said microprogram through the digital communication interface (DCI). The sensor data is stored at beginning locations of said buffer (Bu), wherefrom they are read by an RFID interrogator. The tag functionality in an application is settable with the RFID interrogator to an automatic data logger or RFID wireless sensor. The tag is adjustable to various types of digital sensors from various manufacturers. A hardwired dedicated processing unit makes it possible that the tag saves more energy, has smaller dimensions and is faster.

Abstract: A method is performed for a signal transmitted by an RFID interrogator being a radiofrequency electromagnetic sine wave. An amplitude noise contribution RSdAN to a demodulated received signal RSd within a frequency interval of a low-pass filter is determined by means of a measured demodulated transmitted signal TSd as RSdAN=k.TSd in that a dc component DCRS in said demodulated received signal RSd and a dc component DCTS in said demodulated transmitted signal TSd are measured and a conversion factor k is determined as k=DCRS:DCTS. A receiver output signal O is continuously generated out of the received signal by subtracting said amplitude noise contribution RSdAN from the demodulated received signal RSd, filtering the cleaned signal RSd-k.TSd by the low-pass filter and amplifying it. The conversion factor is determined in an exceptionally simplified way as said ratio of said dc components. No receiving interruptions are needed.
