  • Patent number: 9035811
    Abstract: The present invention is applicable to the field of communication, and provides an analog digital data conversion method, an analog digital data convertor and an analog digital conversion chip. The method includes: converting multiple groups of analog data to multiple groups of digital data; performing frequency shift on the multiple groups of digital data, wherein the multiple groups of frequency shifted digital data are independently distributed within a first preset bandwidth; filtering the multiple groups of frequency shifted digital data to remove outband information; and distributing without overlap the filtered multiple groups of digital data within a second preset bandwidth. The method substantially reduces pressure of data transmission between the converter and an FPGA or ASIC, and effectively simplifying the design of a multiband receiver.

  • Publication number: 20120068829
    Abstract: A radio frequency identification (RFID) system for reading data from multiple RFID tags without radio frequency (RF) signal collision. The system includes a RF caller (102) for transmitting a calling message (106) with a tag ID through a calling channel (104), a plurality of RFID tags (108) for receiving the calling message (106) on the calling channel (104), a RFID tag (110) of the RFID tags (108) for responding the calling message (106) to transmit a tag message (114) through a recording channel (112), and a RF recorder (116) for receiving the tag message (114) on the recording channel (112). At any time at most one message is transmitted through one RF channel, which can avoid any RF signal collision.

  • Patent number: 7839289
    Abstract: An RFID system and method utilizes the power level of messages received from an RFID device for monitoring and/or locating and/or tracking the RFID device, e.g., and typically an object associated with the RFID device. The power level of received messages may be indicated by power level information contained in the message, or by the strength of the received signal carrying the message, or by both. The RFID system and method may be employed to monitor a condition of an object, e.g., a closable container, as to whether it is and/or has been closed or not, including being tampered with. Messages received from the RFID device, as well as an indication of a condition, may be relayed to a remote location.
