Title: Collaborative RFID reader using code divisional multiple access (CDMA) and methods for same

Abstract

The present disclosure provides collaborative radiofrequency identification (RFID) readers that employ code division multiple access (CDMA) encoding to simultaneously broadcast to and read responses from tags in an overlapping reading zone with improved data synchronization and read yield rates. In some embodiments, a harmonic backscattering scheme is used to enable the system to have a much higher signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and sensitivity, while the reader CDMA protocol can be integrated with an initial TDMA polling process or alternative tag CDMA scheme.

Method of remote powering and detecting multiple UWB passive tags in an RFID system

Patent Dowla, Farid U [Castro Valley, CA]; Nekoogar, Faranak [San Ramon, CA]; Benzel, David M [Livermore, CA]; ...

A new Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), tracking, powering apparatus/system and method using coded Ultra-wideband (UWB) signaling is introduced. The proposed hardware and techniques disclosed herein utilize a plurality of passive UWB transponders in a field of an RFID-radar system. The radar system itself enables multiple passive tags to be remotely powered (activated) at about the same time frame via predetermined frequency UWB pulsed formats. Once such tags are in an activated state, an UWB radar transmits specific "interrogating codes" to put predetermined tags in an awakened status. Such predetermined tags can then communicate by a unique "response code" so asmore » « less

Code division multiple access signaling for modulated reflector technology

Patent Briles, Scott D [Los Alamos, NM]

A method and apparatus for utilizing code division multiple access in modulated reflectance transmissions comprises the steps of generating a phase-modulated reflectance data bit stream; modifying the modulated reflectance data bit stream; providing the modified modulated reflectance data bit stream to a switch that connects an antenna to an infinite impedance in the event a "+1" is to be sent, or connects the antenna to ground in the event a "0" or a "-1" is to be sent.

System and method for ultra-high-resolution ranging using RFID

Patent Hui, Xiaonan; Kan, Edwin C.

A radio-frequency method for range finding includes modulating a reference signal having an intermediate frequency to a downlink signal having a carrier frequency using a clock signal. The downlink signal is transmitted to a tag using a transceiver. An uplink signal backscattered from the tag is received and demodulated using the clock signal. The uplink signal has a frequency that is a harmonic of the carrier frequency. A distance between the tag and the transceiver is calculated based on a phase of the demodulated uplink signal. A system for range finding includes a transceiver and a processor. The transceiver modulatesmore » « less

System and method for integrating and accessing multiple data sources within a data warehouse architecture

Patent Musick, Charles R [Castro Valley, CA]; Critchlow, Terence [Livermore, CA]; Ganesh, Madhaven [San Jose, CA]; ...

A system and method is disclosed for integrating and accessing multiple data sources within a data warehouse architecture. The metadata formed by the present method provide a way to declaratively present domain specific knowledge, obtained by analyzing data sources, in a consistent and useable way. Four types of information are represented by the metadata: abstract concepts, databases, transformations and mappings. A mediator generator automatically generates data management computer code based on the metadata. The resulting code defines a translation library and a mediator class. The translation library provides a data representation for domain specific knowledge represented in a data warehouse,more » « less

Engine system and method of operating same over multiple engine load ranges

Patent Duffy, Kevin P.; Urven, Jr., Roger L.; Brown, Cory A.; ...

A method of operating an engine system should produce relatively low concentrations of various emissions without compromising a desired power output of the system. In order to operate an engine system of the present disclosure, a predetermined total amount of fuel injected into at least one combustion chamber is apportioned into at least a first amount and a second amount of fuel. The first amount of fuel is injected into the at least one combustion chamber during non-auto ignition conditions. The second amount of fuel is injected into the at least one combustion chamber during auto-ignition conditions. When the enginemore » « less
