  • Abstract
    A lighter transponder for harmonic radar was assembled using a dipole silver plated copper wire and a Schottky diode. Diode was assembled with solder paste and weighted 0.8 mg. With a 9.41 GHz oscillator (power 10 mW) illuminating the tag, the receiver signal at the spectrum analyzer input was -6.94 dBm
