  • Patent number: 9252493
    Abstract: The invention relates to a radio frequency device including an antenna connected to a capacitor. Said capacitor includes first and second conductive plates that are opposite each other and separated by an insulator. At least one of said first and second plates is formed of a plurality of wire capacitor portions. Said radio frequency device is different in that the antenna and at least one capacitor plate are formed with wire portions placed on a substrate in a guided manner.

  • Patent number: 9104954
    Abstract: The invention relates to a radiofrequency device comprising a passive antenna tuned or intended to be tuned in frequency with at least one transponder, said transponder comprising an integrated circuit chip linked to an antenna interface defining an electromagnetic coupling surface periphery, said passive antenna comprising a main loop formed of turns comprising at least one portion of surface (B) inside the loop, at least one recess of the main loop, oriented from the interior to the exterior of the main loop, said portion of surface (B) being located in said recess so as to effect an electromagnetic coupling with a transponder circuit; the device is distinguished in that it comprises two recesses receiving or intended to receive a transponder each.

  • Publication number: 20100197245
    Abstract: A method for producing radiofrequency communication devices with or without an operation switch and devices obtained. The invention relates to a method for producing a radiofrequency communication device comprising an electronic component, an antennae circuit associated with the electronic component and a switch on the circuit capable of switching off the antennae circuit; the method being differentiated in that comprises the following steps: —the antennae (22) is made with a portion in the form of a closed circuit (15, 17) in a reception zone of the switch, —an interrupting zone (I) of the antennae circuit is created on the said portion at least by removing matter from the antenna. The invention also relates to the resulting devices.
