“…Furthermore, as harmonic RFID uses two frequency bands for communication, multi-band or multiple antennas are required for a harmonic RFID tag and reader. Different harmonic RFID configurations were proposed in [ 24 , 25 , 64 ]. In [ 25 ], a fully functional first harmonic RFID tag was proposed.…”

“…The tag architecture also reduces the number of components compared to [ 24 , 25 ]. In addition to standard conventional RFID components, the only extra component required in [ 64 ] is the harmonic generator. To the best of our knowledge, the harmonic RFID tag reported in [ 64 ] will require the least tag area for the same frequency operation among the reported chip-based second harmonic RFID tags.…”

“…However, to obtain a state-of-the-art size of harmonic RFID IC, a CMOS implementation of harmonic RFID IC is required. As reported in [ 64 ], only an additional harmonic generator is required with conventional RFID components for a working harmonic RFID. CMOS implementation of NLTL as the harmonic generator was already demonstrated in [ 38 ].…”

Harmonic Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) systems have attracted significant interest over the last decade as it provides many benefits over the conventional RFID systems. Harmonic RFID is desired over conventional RFID systems due to reduced self-jamming, location accuracy from dual frequency, and higher phase noise immunity. In a harmonic RFID system, the tag receives instructions from the reader at an RF carrier frequency and replies back at the harmonic of the RF frequency. A nonlinear element consuming very low power at the tag is required to generate the harmonic carrier for the battery-less system. In this review article, a detailed contrast between conventional and harmonic RFID systems is presented. This is followed by different circuit design techniques to generate harmonics and integration techniques to form a fully operable passive harmonic RFID tag. Also, a wide range of applications, especially sensor integration with harmonic RFID’s, along with the future trends are presented.
