A Battery-Free BLE Backscatter Communication Chip for Wearable Systems

A Battery-Free BLE Backscatter Communication Chip for Wearable Systems 150 150

Abstract:

This letter presents a backscatter chip that features bidirectional communication with commodity bluetooth low-energy (BLE) transceivers. For uplink, the chip reflects a reverse-whitened BLE tone into single-sideband (SSB) GFSK-modulated BLE packets via a proposed replica VCO-based GFSK modulator and an inductor-free SSB reflector. For downlink, the BLE packets are frequency …
