Abstract

Due to its low energy consumption and high security, near field communication (NFC) has been extensively used in various short-range non-contact transmission scenarios such as the proximity payment and NFC entrance guard. However, the low data rate of NFC limits its application in high rate demanded scenarios, such as high-resolution fingerprint identification and streaming media transmission. In this paper, we propose the orbital angular momentum (OAM) based NFC system to significantly increase the capacity for NFC systems. With coils circularly equipped at the transmitter and receiver, OAM signals can be transmitted, received, and detected. Then, we analyze the mutual inductances between the transmit and receive coils to derive the OAM-NFC magneto-inductive channel matrix. Based on the channel matrix, we develop the OAM-NFC transmission and detection schemes for NFC multiplexing transmission. We also compare the capacity of our proposed OAM-NFC system with those of SISO NFC system and MIMO NFC system. Simulation results validate the feasibility and capacity enhancement of our proposed OAM-NFC system. How the number of the transceiver coils impacts the capacity of OAM-NFC system is also evaluated.
