Passive transponder identification and credit-card type transponder
First Claim
1. A passive transponder identification system for detecting and monitoring the existing of automobiles and other object within a constant detection area comprising a transmitter 100 to radiate two different RF signals within the area to a receiving antenna 110, either of the signals being modulated to a fixed low frequency (LF) and an antenna 210 modulated with two different center frequencies;
- wherein an impedance semiconductor circuit part 220 inserted into said modulated antenna combines said two RFs; and
the identification system further includes a transponder 200 having a tank circuit to contain a resonant frequency equal to sum of two different frequencies to re-radiate a data-tone carrier signal to such combined frequency and a narrow-bandwidth receiver 300 having a receiving antenna 310 to receive and demodulate said carrier signal by excluding the transmitting RF signal and its harmonics to detect LF modulating signal.

Abstract
A passive transponder identification system and credit card type transponder are disclosed, particularly, the transponder identification system to utilize a transmitting manner of two different RF signals is provided. The present invention directly relates to a passive transponder without any kind of power source. Therefore, the present invention has advantages of having a constant gain value by developing a high-gain dual polarizing antenna for a small credit card type passive tranponder to identify at long distance, independently to any direction of the transponder; improving gain values than conventional transponder tag antenna by 6-9 dB to ensure a sub-permanent life time by providing the desired identification performance by means of a small credit card type passive transponder without power supply; and being applicable to any systems to identify and distinguish high-speed moving objects.
