Abstract
This paper presents a passive wireless multi-parameter sensor system, which is suitable for monitoring the environment in hermetic space like industrial painting room, coal mine, and so on. The system consists of two subsystems: the primary system and the secondary system. The primary system transmits power and receives modulated data through a coupled transformer composed of primary and secondary inductors printed in their subsystems, respectively. The secondary system comprises micro capacitive temperature, pressure and relative humidity sensors and uses a relaxation oscillator to convert capacitance to frequency. Using time division multiplexing unit, it can simultaneously measure multiple sensors. The converted frequency signal is used to vary the amplitude of the waveforms on the coupling inductors. The modulating signal is recovered from the carrier using the envelope detection unit. The measurement results indicate that the pressure, temperature, and relative humidity sensitivities of the passive wireless multi-parameter sensor system are 5.6 fF/hPa, 250fF/°C and 71.4 fF/%RH, respectively. Three sensors linearly response to the change of the environment and the system has good consistency.
