Adaptive pulse signal shaping of tag response signal for RFID tag test system

An algorithm for adaptive pulse signal shaping is proposed for the tag response signal with large fluctuations of radio frequency identification (RFID) tag test systems, which has not been addressed in the literature for the scenario. To verify the proposed algorithm, an experimental platform implemented with a field programmable gate array (FPGA) is set up based on National Instruments. The experimental results show that the algorithm is sufficient for correcting the RFID tag response pulse signal even for the signal with severe signal distortion.
