Abstract
The directional coupler is applied to isolating RX from TX because of low cost and simplicity compared to the circulator in the radio-frequency identification (RFID) reader. Because of unequal phase velocity between odd and even mode, the drawback of the traditional microstrip directional coupler is poor isolation. In this paper, to obtain a good isolation between RX and TX, a novel directional coupler is proposed to be applied to the UHF RFID system with a single antenna. Measurement result shows that the proposed directional coupler possesses a good isolation of -35dB in operating frequency band.
