Abstract

Radio frequency identification at millimeter waves enables new applications, such as high data rate short range communication, location sensing through narrow-beam antennas etc. In this paper two transponders designs for 60 GHz Millimeter wave identification (MMID) system are presented. One transponder consists of a Schottky diode and an antenna on LCP and the other of a backward tunneling diode and an antenna on LTCC. The design, fabrication and measurements of the two designs are presented, and compared to simulations and each other.
