Abstract

In order to increase the sensitivity and range of a system for the exchange of data by microwaves between a fixed station, or reader, and a mobile station, or badge, the modem of the badge includes an oscillator. A single transistor works, under a first bias, as a detector of the wave transmitted by the reader and demodulates this wave, and then, under a second bias, it works as an oscillator and modulates the response transmitted by the badge. Applications to the exchange of data at a distance.
