Abstract

The utility model relates to a wireless temperature sensor of acoustic surface wave, which comprises manufacturing an interdigital transducer with an EWC/SPUDT structure and 11 reflectors of a short-circuit gate structure on a piezoelectric substrate. The EWC/SPUDT receives electromagnetic wave signals emitted by a wireless reading unit through a wireless antenna, and the electromagnetic wave signals are converted into acoustic surface wave to spread along the direction of the reflectors on the surface of the piezoelectric substrate and are reflected by the reflectors; the reflected acoustic wave is re-converted into electromagnetic wave signals through EWC/SPUDT2, is sent back to the wireless reading unit by the wireless antenna, so as to evaluates the phase change of the time domain response to realize temperature detection through a signal processing method. For reducing multiple reflections between the reflectors, 11 reflectors of an SAW reflective delay line are divided into two ways: 8 devices in one way are used as 8-bit tags and 3 reflectors in the other way are used for temperature detection. The uniform-response time-domain S11 reflection peak is obtained through adjusting the number of electrodes of the reflector.

Description

A kind of surface acoustic wave wireless temperature sensor
Technical field
The utility model relates to a kind of surface acoustic wave (surface acoustic wave:SAW) temperature sensor of integrated electronic label, particularly relates to a kind of radio temperature sensor that adopts the SAW reflective delay line of control electrode width single phase unidirectional transducer and short-circuit gate reflector structure.
Background technology
The velocity of propagation of SAW exist with the linear correlation of temperature relation be Δ v=v 0* TCD * (T-T Ref), wherein TCD is the first-order lag temperature coefficient (depending on the crystal structure of piezoelectric substrate material and tangential) of piezoelectric substrate, Δ v is a velocity variations, v 0Be SAW speed, T RefBe reference temperature.Utilizing some higher temperature coefficients like this is the piezoelectric substrate such as the LiNbO of high TCD value 3, LiTaO 3And La 3Ga 5SiO 4Can realize detection to temperature.In recent years, by means of wireless recognition technique, a kind of SAW reflective delay line begins to be applied to the SAW radio temperature sensor and uses.This SAW reflective delay line by a piezoelectric substrate with constitute (its reverberator number depends on practical application) along an interdigital transducer and several reverberators of sonic propagation direction setting, interdigital transducer receives the electromagnetic wave signal that comes from wireless reading unit (Reader unit) emission by wireless antenna, and convert to along the SAW of piezoelectric substrate surface propagation, and the device that is reflected reflects, the SAW of reflection converts electromagnetic wave signal to again by interdigital transducer, send it back wireless reading unit by wireless antenna, because the linear correlation of SAW speed and temperature causes the linear response of SAW reflective delay line time domain phase place, realize radio detection to temperature with this.
As an example, conventional structure is applied to a SAW reflective delay line 1 of radio temperature sensor, comprise a piezoelectric substrate, with an interdigital transducer of making of semiconductor planar technology on piezoelectric substrate and three reverberators that are provided with along the sonic propagation direction, as shown in Figure 1, wherein 9 is piezoelectric substrate, 2 is interdigital transducer, 3,4 and 5 is three reverberators, and the distance between reverberator 3 and interdigital transducer 2 and the reverberator is determined according to delay requirement.6,7 and 8 are respectively from first, second and the 3rd reflection echo signal of reverberator 3,4 and 5 reflections.Piezoelectric substrate 9 adopts the LiNbO with high-temperature coefficient usually 3, LiTaO 3Deng material, utilize its high sensitivity to temperature, acoustic velocity presents linear change with the peripheral environment variation of temperature, thereby causes SAW reflective delay line reflection coefficient S 11Time domain time delay/phase response, realize detection with this to temperature.
The frequency of operation based on this SAW reflective delay line of prior art be the prototype SAW radio temperature sensor sensing range of 2.4GHz in (room temperature~200 ℃), its sensitivity has reached 34 °/℃, and has obtained the temperature detection resolution less than 0.1K.Because this SAW temperature sensor is made of individual devices, simple in structure, adopt as document 1:L.M.Reindl:Wireless measurement of temperature using surface acoustic wavesensors, IEEE Trans.UFFC, 51,1457-1463 (2004). described three reflector structures and corresponding signal processing method can effectively be eliminated owing to surpass the signal ambiguity that 360 degree occur in the phase-detection, might obtain good temperature control and improve; Adopt phase place as sensor output signal in addition, have higher sensitivity resolution, and device itself can realize definitely passively, be suitable under hot conditions, working, therefore this SAW radio temperature sensor has a good application prospect, and causes the great interest of people.For this wireless SAW temperature sensor, the design of SAW reflective delay line has directly determined every performance index, particularly sensing range etc. of sensor, because along with the rising of temperature, the also corresponding increase of sonic propagation decay directly translates into the time domain response S of SAW reflective delay line 11Loss with temperature (the document 2:R.S.Hauser that raises, et al:A wirelessSAW-based temperature sensor for harsh environment, Proceeding of IEEE Sensors, Vol.2pp:860-863,2004), this just needs a kind of low-loss, high s/n ratio and have the SAW reflection model lag line at the steep sharp-pointed Time Domain Reflectometry of homogeneous peak.But be applied to the SAW reflective delay line of radio temperature sensor at present because there is bigger problem in the device architecture design, for example:
1. what the interdigital transducer 2 that above-mentioned conventional SAW reflective delay line 1 is adopted adopted is a kind of bidrectional transducer structure, causes sound wave two-way propagation, thereby has increased the acoustic propagation loss (generally all 50~60dB); Signal to noise ratio (S/N ratio) is lower, this has just badly influenced the temperature detection scope and the wireless distance that reads (is inverse relation with device loss, document 3:C.E.Cook, M.Bernfeld:Radar signals, Norwood, MA, Artech House, 1993), the more direct temperature detection scope that has had influence on sensor.In addition, the reflective delay line of prior art fails to realize steep sharp-pointed reflection coefficient S 11The Time Domain Reflectometry peak, this just is unfavorable for the accurate extraction of time domain delay time signal, thus cause detection signal than large deviation.
2. the conventional SAW reflective delay line 1 common employing of the above-mentioned SAW of being applied to radio temperature sensor singly refers to type or the interdigital transducer type reverberator as lag line.Therefore the reverberator of interdigitation has bigger reflection coefficient, can improve device loss and signal to noise ratio (S/N ratio) preferably, but since interdigital electrode refer between reflection and the bigger time domain noise of acoustic-electric regeneration causing.The reverberator that singly refers to type can reduce device time domain noise, but less reflection coefficient causes device loss bigger, and signal to noise ratio (S/N ratio) is low.
3. because sonic propagation decay, it is poor that the long travel path of lag line causes being derived from the reflection peak homogeneity of each reverberator usually, and far away more from transducer, its loss is big more, and signal to noise ratio (S/N ratio) is low more, directly has influence on the extraction of time domain delay time signal.
4. present, an important development trend of sensing system is integration of function, helps realizing the real-time detection to many reference amounts like this, also helps system's miniaturization and portable realization; And the existing radio temperature sensor function singleness that adopts the SAW reflective delay line; Therefore, it has directly hindered some performance improvements and the practical application of SAW radio temperature sensor.
