“…Moreover, the standard semi-passive transponder can only be used in logistic processes (e.g., in trade, Decathlon). It cannot be used throughout the life cycle of textile products [ 12 ], e.g., during washing or ironing. In this context, the obtained research results were the basis for the authors to start the process of creating a useful design of the RFIDtex tag for various products of the textile industry.…”

“…An additional built-in power source (e.g., a removable or nonremovable lithium battery) distinguishes this group of devices ( Figure 1 b). In terms of construction, the concept of textronic RFID (RFIDtex) tags, proposed by the authors ( Figure 1 c) [ 12 ], stands out. In their structure, the antenna and chip are located on physically separated substrates and are galvanically isolated.…”

The Influence of Textile Substrates on the Performance of Textronic RFID Transponders

Recent advances in the development of innovative textronic products are often related to the implementation of radio-frequency identification (RFID) technology. Such devices contain components of wireless telecommunications systems, in which radiofrequency circuits should be designed taking into account not only the frequency band or destined application, but also the dielectric properties of the materials. As is known from the theory of RFID systems, the dielectric permittivity and loss angle of the substrates significantly affect the performance of RFID transponders. Therefore, the knowledge on the variability of these parameters is highly important in the context of developing new solutions in textronic devices with the RFID interface. According to the plan of studies, at the beginning, the comprehensive characterization and determination of the dielectric parameters of various types of textile substrates were carried out. On this basis, the influence of fabrics on the performance of textronic RFID (RFIDtex) tags was characterized with numerical calculations. As the RFIDtex transponders proposed by the authors in the patent PL231291 have an outstanding design in which the antenna and the chip are located on physically separated substrates and are galvanically isolated, the special means had to be implemented when creating a numerical model. On the other hand, the great advantage of the developed construction was confirmed. Since the impedance at the chip’s terminals is primarily determined by the coupling system, the selected fabrics have relatively low impact on the efficiency of the RFIDtex transponder. Such an effect is impossible to achieve with classical designs of passive or semi-passive transponders. The correctness of the simulations was verified on the exemplary demonstrators, in threshold and rotation measurements performed at the laboratory stand.

“…A typical passive RFID tag consists of a chip and an antenna-in the vast majority of cases, both of these elements are permanently connected to each other. The patent PL 231291 B1 "Textronic RFID transponder" by Jankowski-Mihułowicz P., Węglarski M. [23] presents a concept based on the galvanic separation of both elements by means of a special coupling circuit (Figure 1). Both the chip and the antenna have a coupling circuit in the form of properly profiled loops, between which there is mutual induction.…”

Antennas dedicated to RFID systems created on textile substrates should maintain strictly defined parameters. During washing, the materials from which such antennas are made are exposed to mechanical and chemical exposure—degradation of the parameters characterizing those materials may occur, which in turn may lead to a change in the parameters of the antenna. For research purposes, four groups of model dipole antennas (sewn with two types of conductive threads on two fabrics) were created and then they were subjected to several washing processes. After each stage of the experiment, the impedance parameters of the demonstration antennas were measured using indirect measurements. Based on the obtained results, it was found that these parameters change their values during washing, and that this is influenced by a number of factors, e.g., shrinkage of the substrate fabric.

The innovation in high-converging technology using electronics and textiles augments the functionality of E-textiles as Smart E-Textiles (SETs), which overcome the gap between interactivity and inter-connectivity. The current article presents a review about the recent developments in Smart E-textiles and their relationship with other modern technologies. Smart E-Textiles can be developed via smart sensors, wireless communication technologies, embedded technologies, and nanotechnology, which can monitor activity for modern applications. Investments in research and development of Smart E-Textiles will encourage the use of them as sustainable and cost-effective options for light-weight, high-performance wearable technology for monitoring a wide range of the digitization activities of Smart E-Textiles applications.
