Abstract
In this paper, we implemented a HF-band magnetic-field communication system consisting of an amplitude shift keying(ASK) transmitter, a pair of loop antennas, and an ASK receiver. Especially, we suggested a new ASK transmitter architecture, where a drain bias of class E amplifier is switched alternatively between two voltage levels with respect to input data. A maximum 5 W class E amplifier was designed using a low cost IRF510 power MOSFET at the frequency of 6.78 MHz. A measured sensitivity of the designed ASK receiver is -78 dBm, which consists of a log amplifier, a filter, and a comparator. Maximum communication range of magnetic-wave communication system with loop antennas was calculated using magnetic field equations in both near-field and far-field ranges. Also, in order to verify the calculated values, an indoor propagation loss was measured using a pair of loop antennas whose dimensions are . Maximum operating range is estimated about 35 m in case of transmitter`s output power of 1 W and receiver sensitivity of -70 dBm, respectively. Finally, the communication field test using the designed ASK transmitter and receiver was successfully done at the distance of 5 m.
