Characteristic Analysis of a Chipless RFID Sensor Based on Multi-Parameter Sensing and an Intelligent Detection Method

Chipless radio frequency identification (RFID) technology has been widely used in the field of structural health monitoring (SHM), but most of the current research mainly focuses on the detection of mechanical properties and there are few studies on the multi-physical parameters (for example, temperature and humidity) in the climatic environment around the structure. Thus, it is necessary to design a small and compact sensor for multi-parameter detection. This paper proposes a multi-parameter chipless RFID sensor based on microstrip coupling, which supports 4-bit ID code and integrates two detection functions of temperature and humidity. Through linear normalization fitting, the sensitivity of the sensor is about 2.18 MHz/RH in the ambient relative humidity test and the sensitivity of the sensor is about 898.63 KHz/°C in the experimental test of water bath heating from 24.6 °C to 75 °C. In addition, this paper proposes an engineering application detection method, designs a lightweight dynamic spectrum detection and wireless transmission platform based on a lightweight vector network analyzer (VNA) and realizes the real-time extraction and transmission of RFID spectrum sensing data. The means are more flexible and economical than traditional experimental scenarios.


Introduction
In recent years, the integration of chipless radio frequency identification (RFID) technology in the Internet of Things (IoT) has facilitated the structural health monitoring of modern industrial systems' critical infrastructure [1]. Structural health monitoring (SHM) is a combination of sensor technology and the Internet of Things (IoT) to realize an automatic detection system for structural damage to civil infrastructure. However, the majority of the current research on structural health monitoring is still limited to stress characteristics [2][3][4], and the monitoring of physical parameters in the environment where the structure is located, such as temperature and humidity, gas content, pH and other parameters, has not yet been fully researched. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a single chipless RFID sensor for multi-physical parameter sensing.
RFID technology utilizes wireless signals to identify the target. Currently, chipless frequency domain RFID uses resonant structures to encode data into the frequency spectrum and is associated with ID via basic coding elements corresponding to pre-designed simple shapes, and the functions of signal reception, signal processing and signal transmission are no longer separated in geometry and concept, but coupled within the same structure. Consequently, the cost, dependability and recyclability of tags have increased. With the development of the IoT era, RFID technology has opened a new paradigm, especially the combination of information sensing and the IoT, which has greatly stimulated the potential in the field of structural health monitoring [5,6].
Combining novel sensing materials and chipless RFID sensors to create multi-parameter chipless RFID sensors has become the subject of research [7] with the advent of highperformance composite materials. The interaction of environmental physical elements with chipless RFID sensors alters the dielectric constant of the sensitive material, resulting in a shift in the resonant frequency and a corresponding change in the amplitude of each sensor element [8,9]. Typically, researchers combine sensing materials into chipless RFID tags using two distinct ways. The first strategy is to employ sensing materials as substrates. When physical parameters associated with the surrounding environment change, the substrate's dielectric constant also alters. Additionally, implement sensing and the detection of the surrounding environment by the modification of involved parameters such as the sensor's resonance frequency. M. Borgese et al. proposed a unique inkjetprinted chipless RFID humidity sensor in 2017, which was inkjet-printed on a thin sheet of Mitsubishi paper and passed through the Mitsubishi paper's dielectric. The change in the constant causes the frequency of the resonance peak to shift, allowing humidity to be monitored [10]. In 2021, Nimra Javed et al. fabricated a 12-bit tag with a humiditysensitive Kapton HN substrate by deploying a multi-walled carbon in the center of the tag nanotubes (MWCNTs) to change their electrical conductivity through CO2 gas sensing properties, allowing humidity and CO2 gas to be monitored simultaneously [11]. The second method is to form a polymer substance with sensitive qualities into a film shape and cover the surface of an existing chipless RFID tag in order for it to function. Changes in the physical components of the surroundings cause changes in film-related parameters, which are subsequently transferred to the sensor's corresponding resonance. In terms of frequency, the sensor's frequency shift characteristic is employed to define changes in physical parameters in the surrounding environment [12,13]. Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) is a water-soluble polymer with numerous applications. It is easily soluble in water because it forms hydrogen bonds quickly with water. P.Bergo and others discussed the PVA film production technique and the relationship between PVA dielectric constant and water content [14]. Because of its temperature-sensitive characteristics, reduced graphene oxide (rGO) is commonly employed to construct temperature-sensitive sensors. Using rGO as a substrate or combining rGO materials with other materials to inspire its potential in the field of temperature sensing [15].
With the evolution of sensors and micromachining technologies, it has become possible to integrate multi-parameter sensors. This sensor may simultaneously measure multiple parameters, and each sensor element is independent of the others. Adding the coding function enables the effective identification of a single sensor when numerous sensors are present. Therefore, numerous researchers have explored the multifunctional integration of multi-parameter sensing and tag identification. Emran M. Amin created a multi-parameter chipless RFID sensor with integrated coding, humidity and temperature monitoring in 2016 by combining temperature-sensitive Phenanthrene and humidity-sensitive polyvinyl alcohol. As an ID encoder and an electric field LC-coupled (ELC) resonator coated with a smart material layer, temperature and humidity sensing and information encoding are realized in a small planar configuration [16]. The complementary split ring resonator (CSRR) structure was initially introduced by Pendry et al. and was subsequently widely utilized to characterize changes in parameters such as stress, temperature, humidity and gas [17][18][19]. Ma et al. created a chipless sensor based on frequency domain coding by incorporating CSRR resonant units of varying sizes on a microstrip line, which greatly improved frequency band utilization [20].
The employment of intelligent materials in conjunction with chipless RFID sensors has significantly increased the potential of tag sensors in application scenarios. Presently, the majority of research on the sensitive qualities of ambient physical factors focuses on the construction of RCS chipless RFID tag sensors, among which ELC-type resonators are extensively employed due to their capacitance-oriented design. The chipless RFID tag based on the microstrip transmission line has a bigger data capacity than the RCS tag based on backscattering, the mutual coupling interference can be alleviated by adjusting the distance between different resonant units and the cross-polarized transceiver antenna can be matched by retransmission. Without the need for cumbersome horn antennae, detection is conducted [21,22].
In this paper, a multi-resonator cascade design based on a 50 Ω microstrip transmission line is implemented, and a coupling sensor tag based on CSRR and ELC resonator is proposed. Four different-sized CSRR resonant units are intended for the identification of tag identity information. An additional CSRR resonator is installed to characterize the environmental temperature sensing, at the same time, an ELC resonator is integrated to improve the humidity sensing capability of the tag. Then, the variation law of the amplitude and shift of the resonant frequency peak of the multi-parameter sensor under different temperature and humidity conditions was discussed. The contributions of this paper are summarized as follows. (I) A chipless RFID multi-parameter sensor is designed, which realizes the integration of three functions of temperature, humidity and encoding. The three functions of the designed sensor are independent of each other and can be combined flexibly. (II) Through the linear normalization fitting of the resonant frequency shift characteristics of the tag, its good temperature and humidity sensing characteristics are verified. (III) An engineering-focused, lightweight technique for wireless dynamic spectrum detection is proposed.

Theory of Designing Microstrip Resonators
Microstrip patch antenna is a good choice for sensor fabrication because of its simplicity and low production cost. The main characteristic of the microstrip antenna is that it has more physical parameters than conventional antenna, so it can be designed in various shapes and sizes. Based on the frequency domain characteristics of microstrip antenna, the resonant frequencies of multiple parameters are realized in the working frequency band by designing a coupling cascade of multiple resonators and microstrip transmission lines. The resonant frequency of the microstrip resonator is closely related to the electrical length of the designed resonator, and the relationship between them can be given by Equation (1) [23]: where c is the speed of light, ε eff is the effective permittivity, L res is the effective electrical length of the resonator and n is the nth resonant mode.

Design of CSRR and ELC Resonators Based on Microstrip Coupling
CSRR symmetrical structure resonator is a resonant structure with high-quality factor (Q value) and generates a very compact frequency bandwidth, so it can efficiently implement more resonant unit settings in the same frequency band [24].
In the frequency domain, a kind of composed of multiple complementary split ring resonators is presented in this paper, which the CSRR resonance unit with the main coupled microstrip line feeds. Its structural layout is shown in Figure 1a. In order to better compare the sensitivity of the proposed CSRR resonant unit to ambient temperature and humidity, an existing reported ELC resonator with good capacitance characteristics is combined in Figure 1b. As shown in Figure 1b, a CSRR resonant unit and an ELC resonant unit are simultaneously set on the main microstrip transmission line in the tag. Figure 1 shows the main parameter dimensions of the tag design. In this work, Rogers 5880 is used as the dielectric substrate and the optimization design is carried out in the radiofrequency (RF) simulation software HFSS. Table 1 shows the specific values of each parameter after tag optimization.  Figure 2 shows the equivalent circuit of the CSRR and ELC resonators coupled simultaneously on the microstrip line. The L11 represents the equivalent inductance on the main transmission line. The greater the value of L11, the greater the loss of signal, which means that the narrower the microstrip line, the greater the attenuation of the signal. C11 and C12 represent the degree of coupling between the microstrip line and the CSRR and ELC resonators, respectively. The smaller the gap between the resonator and the microstrip line, the greater the degree of coupling, and the greater the return loss obtained at the resonant frequency. The bandstop resonance characteristics of the resonator can be modeled with lumped-circuit elements, where the L21, C21 equivalent elements are used to generate the resonant frequency of the CSRR resonator, and the L31, C31 equivalent elements are used to generate the resonant frequency of the ELC resonator. The simplified circuit model of the ELC unit resonant frequency and the CSRR unit resonant frequency is ω = 1/( ) r r r L C . Where the equivalent inductance and capacitance of CSRR can be derived as follows [25][26][27]:  Figure 2 shows the equivalent circuit of the CSRR and ELC resonators coupled simultaneously on the microstrip line.

Where the equivalent inductance and capacitance of CSRR can be derived as follows [25][26][27]: Here, K (k) is the first complete elliptic integral, d is space of the CSRR inner and outer rings, w is the line width of the CSRR microstrip frame and C 0 is the capacitance of unit length of the two split ring.

Figure 3a shows the scattering characteristic curve of a single CSRR and the coupling structure when the distance dg1 of the microstrip transmission line is 0.1 mm. When the length L1 of CSRR is 9.6 mm, one of the better bandstop resonance curves is formed at 2.95 GHz, the transmission coefficient S21 is about −21 dB and the reflection coefficient S11 is about 0 dB. Figure 3b shows the S11 and S21 parameter response curves of a single CSRR and a single ELC coupled with the main microstrip transmission line at the same time, where the resonant frequency generated by CSRR is about 3.26 GHz, and that generated by ELC is about 3.95 GHz. The resonant bandwidth of CSRR is about 5 MHz, which is less than the 9 MHz bandwidth of ELC, so the notch curve is more compact. Moreover, CSRR has lower resonant frequency and higher return loss than the ELC resonator when the size difference between the two is not much.

In the CSRR structure, due to the setup of the multiple split ring and each division characteristic of the microstrip ring stopping the current through the loop, both sides inside the CSRR resonant unit can create two equal capacitors. Figure 4b shows the surface electric field distribution at their respective operating frequencies when the CSRR resonant element and ELC resonant element are coupled with a microstrip line at the same time. It can be seen from the electric field distribution that the electric field of the ELC is mainly concentrated in the capacitor plate accessories, while the electric field of CSRR is mainly concentrated among multiple capacitor plates inside the resonator.

However, the CSRR resonator can achieve a larger size microstrip line in the same physical area than the ELC resonator, so it can generate a lower resonant frequency, and because the CSRR resonator has higher Q values and narrower impedance bandwidth, so more resonant frequencies can be set on the same frequency band, which effectively improves the utilization rate of the corresponding working frequency band. Therefore, combined with the respective advantages of the ELC and CSRR resonators, this paper designs a hybrid resonator RFID tag based on microstrip coupling, which can realize multiple sensing functions in a compact bandwidth. more resonant frequencies can be set on the same frequency band, which proves the utilization rate of the corresponding working frequency band.

Relative Humidity Experiment
The selection of humidity-sensitive materials as substrates can reflect the changes in relative humidity in the environment to a certain extent; however, at present, few pressure-resistant materials in the field of structural health monitoring (SHM) have good sensitivity to changes in relative humidity at the same time. In this experiment, the aim is to explore a multi-parameter sensor design that is easy to integrate and has good compression performance.
It is a feasible solution to monitor the relative humidity in the environment by affecting the frequency shift of the resonator by attaching the PVA coating of the humidity-sensitive material on the sensor surface. Moisture is absorbed by the material coating, and then mapped to the corresponding resonant frequency of the sensor. With the change in the relative humidity in the environment, the relative permittivity of the PVA coating will also change, thereby affecting the peak value of the sensor's resonant frequency, resulting in certain frequency shift effects.
In order to analyze the humidity sensitivity of the tag, this work used the PVA colloidal film and transferred it to the resonance unit of the sensor with a small amount of adhesive, and simulated the change in environmental relative humidity in the closed climate box as shown in Figure 9a. The tag is connected to the vector network analyzer (VNA) through two low-loss RF cables running through the box, and an adjustable humidifier is placed in the airtight box. In order to ensure the uniform change in humidity, a plate of anhydrous CaCl 2 hygroscopic agent is also installed in the box to balance the rising trend of humidity, and a high-precision probe-type electronic temperature and humidity instrument is used to monitor the change in humidity in the box in real time. Figure 9b shows the actual humidity test scenario, the gap of the box was completely closed with tape (3M) and tissues, the initial temperature is 24.6 • C and the initial humidity is 27%. Considering that the relative humidity in the actual environment generally ranges from 30% to 90%, the relative humidity test starts from 30%, and the prepared PVA film is pasted on the ELC and CSRR resonant units, respectively.

Figure 10 shows the frequency shift of the ELC resonant unit with the increasing relative humidity in the environment. The resonant frequency corresponding to the ELC resonant unit without PVA film on the surface is 3.96 GHz. When the PVA gel film is covered, the initial frequency will have a certain deviation. Since it is hard to measure the moisture on the surface of the PVA film, it is first air-dried for 2 days and then placed in a sealed box with a relative humidity of about 30% for 2 days to perform a certain dehydration treatment [28].

The shifts of all resonant frequencies can be observed as a whole from Figure 10a, and the shifts of the ELC resonant units are partially enlarged in Figure 10b, from the initial 3.8814 GHz to 3.7714 GHz, the resonant frequency is reduced by about 110 MHz, and the change in the resonance curve is more obvious in the high humidity range where the relative humidity is greater than 70%. As shown in Figure 10c, the humidity sensitivity of the ELC resonator is about 2.18 MHz/RH by linearly normalizing the humidity sensing characteristics of the ELC resonator, and the experiments show the best linearity in the range of 30-60%RH, so the optimum resonant frequency range corresponding to the humidity sensitivity is about 3.817-3.881 GHz.

Figure 11 shows the frequency shift of the CSRR resonant unit with the increasing relative humidity in the environment. After placing PVA gel film on the surface of the CSRR resonator, it is also put into the sealed box and put in a static position for two days. From Figure 11a, we can observe the overall shift of all resonant frequencies. In Figure  11b, the resonance frequency shift effect is partially amplified and the selected frequency band is quantified as the humidity sensing region, which is shifted from the initial 2.69 GHz to the 2.615 GHz and the frequency reduced by 75 MHz. When the humidity increases, the increase in water accumulation on the surface of the tag will have a certain impact on the coupled resonant unit. It can be seen from the analysis that the resonant frequency shift is relatively uniform with the increase in humidity, but the resonance effect of the bandstop characteristic in the high humidity area is obviously reduced. When the PVA film absorbs enough water, the penetration depth and shift effect of the resonant frequency will increase, and the notch depth will become significantly shallower under high humidity, which is no longer easy to capture. The reason is that as the relative humidity of the environment increases, the relative permittivity of the coating changes and the transfer efficiency increases. Secondly, the thickness of the coating will increase to a certain extent when it absorbs water in a humid environment, which is also related to the thickness of the film preparation.

It can be seen from the analysis that the resonant frequency shift is relatively uniform with the increase in humidity, but the resonance effect of the bandstop characteristic in the high humidity area is obviously reduced. When the PVA film absorbs enough water, the penetration depth and shift effect of the resonant frequency will increase, and the notch depth will become significantly shallower under high humidity, which is no longer easy to capture. The reason is that as the relative humidity of the environment increases, the relative permittivity of the coating changes and the transfer efficiency increases. Secondly, the thickness of the coating will increase to a certain extent when it absorbs water in a humid environment, which is also related to the thickness of the film preparation.
It is worth noting that although the measurement results of the experiment are affected by multiple factors in the environment, the overall change trend is consistent [29]. According to the trend of the actual measurement result, with the increase in the ambient humidity, the absorption efficiency of the coating on the water molecules in the air increases in the high humidity area. This results in a faster increase in coating thickness. As shown in Figure 11c, the humidity sensitivity of the CSRR resonator is about 1.43 MHz/RH by linearly normalizing the humidity sensing characteristics of the CSRR resonator unit. The CSRR resonator is less sensitive to humidity than the ELC resonator, so adding a high-humidity-sensitive ELC resonator unit is a feasible solution to improve the sensor performance.

The feature of this chipless RFID humidity sensor is that it is reversible. When the PVA coating moisture is air-dried, the tag can be basically restored to the initial state and the use of a drying oven can quickly shorten the recovery time of the tag. Experiments have shown that the electrical properties of the tag are temporary with humidity changes and the tag will not be permanently damaged and can be reused. It should be noted that the response time of the sensor is affected by the thickness of the PVA film. The increase in the thickness will slow down the response time of the tag. At the same time, the expansion of the PVA polymer matrix in the high humidity range will also have a certain impact on the response time of the tag.

Temperature Experiment
The thermal expansion coefficient of the pressure-resistant substrate of the chipless RFID sensor currently used in the stress field is not high, so sensitivity to temperature in the environment is low. Once the temperature threshold is exceeded, it will cause irreversible changes in the electrical characteristics of the tag sensor.
Considering the above factors, this experiment adopts the method of spreading the temperature-sensitive polymer film on the surface of the microstrip resonator unit to carry out the experiment and conducts the experimental test through the process shown in Figure 12, where Figure 12a is the 3D simulation of the temperature-sensitive experimental test of the tag modeling of the experimental scene and Figure 12b shows the actual tag temperature-sensitive experimental test process.

In order to more accurately simulate the temperature changes in the actual environment, this experiment places an intrusive heater in the high-temperature-resistant water tank, and the heating temperature of the heater's water bath can be adjusted intelligently. Wrap a layer of aluminum foil with good thermal conductivity on the surface of the water tank, fix the tag on the aluminum foil with high-temperature-resistant tape (3M company, Saint Paul, MN, United States) and make the surface fully fit. The thickness of the aluminum foil is 9 µm and the two ports of the tag are wired to measure through an RF cable to reduce external interference.
In order to reduce the influence of heat loss during heat transfer, a patch temperature sensor is installed on the tag surface and an industry standard water temperature tester is inserted into the water tank to record the change in tag temperature in real time. The temperature experimental measurement can reach up to about 80 • C, but the temperature is higher than 75 • C and the region is unstable, so the measurement range is selected between 25 • C and 75 • C.

In this paper, the purchased rGO solution prepared by the thermal reduction method and PVA solution were mixed in a ratio of 1:5 and placed in a glass container and evaporated naturally at room temperature to obtain a layer of rGO and PVA composite film, which has good temperature sensitivity. In the range of 46.85 °C to 126.85 °C, the dielectric constant increases with the increase in temperature [30]. The free space method is one of the effective analytical methods for measuring the dielectric constant. The loss tangent of the composite film with temperature changes can be expressed by the following Equation (6): where ε is relative to complex permittivity, ε′ is relative to real permittivity, ε″ is relative to virtual permittivity and tan δ is the loss tangent. Figure 13 shows the relationship between the frequency response of the CSRR temperature sensing resonance unit S21 and the temperature change when the water bath is heated.

The water bath temperature was increased from room temperature 24.6 • C to 65 • C in 10 • C increments and from 65 • C to 75 • C in 5 • C increments, and the water bath temperature was held at each temperature for approximately 1-2 h with each temperature increment, a certain settling time is reserved for the tag on the aluminum foil to reach equilibrium with the temperature of the water bath, and the VNA records the data. From Figure 13a, we can observe the shift of all the resonant frequencies of the tag under the temperature change. In Figure 13b, the frequency shift effect of CSRR is partially magnified. The resonance frequency of S21 is about 3.03 GHz before the polymer film is not covered, and 3.017 GHz at room temperature after covering, which is reduced by 23 MHz. As the temperature increases, the resonant frequency shifts from the initial 3.017 GHz to 2.97 GHz, and the frequency shift reaches 47 MHz. The analysis shows that with the increase in temperature, the resonant frequency gradually decreases, and the return loss of the temperature sensor S21 also decreases continuously. As shown in Figure 14, through the linear normalization fitting of the sensing characteristics of the CSRR resonator unit in the temperature range of 24.6 • C to 75 • C, Figure 14a shows that the sensitivity of the resonant frequency of the CSRR resonator with temperature change is about 898.63 KHz/ • C and Figure 14b shows that the sensitivity of the resonant frequency amplitude of the CSRR resonator with temperature change is about 0.10273 dB/ • C. When the CSRR resonant unit is used for temperature sensing, the frequency shift characteristics of the resonance and the change in the depth of peak resonance have a good linearity in the measured range. Therefore, the change in temperature can be reflected from two dimensions, and the experiments show that it has the best linearity in the range of 30-45 • C, so the optimum resonant frequency range corresponding to the temperature sensitivity is about 3.003-3.016 GHz.

For a more intuitive comparison, this paper summarizes some reported research works of chipless RFID multi-parameter sensors in recent years, as shown in Table 3. This tag has the advantage of sensing multiple parameters at the same time. By combining the respective advantages of CSRR and ELC resonators, it realizes the partition setting of different sensing function working frequency bands, improves the utilization of spectrum and has good frequency shift characteristics in the measurement range, which can better monitor the changes in temperature and humidity in the environment.

Real-Time Monitoring and Wireless Transmission of Sensing Data
In this paper, a new method of tag spectrum detection and data extraction is proposed and the feasibility of implementing chipless RFID reader mobile detection on fixed sensor tags in the future is proposed from the perspective of engineering application.

Conclusions
In this article, a 6-bit chipless RFID temperature and humidity sensor based on a frequency domain is designed. The proposed CSRR resonator is arranged in the form of coupling with the microstrip line, and an ELC resonator is added as the humidity sensing unit. In this work, the humidity sensitivity of the ELC resonator and the CSRR resonator is compared and analyzed, and the temperature sensitivity of the CSRR is analyzed. The sensitivity of each sensing unit used in the tag was calculated by linear normalization fitting. The three sensing functions of the proposed RFID multi-parameter sensor are all quantified in their respective operating frequency bands, and there will be no interference between the sensing resonant frequencies of different partitions, so a flexible small-range frequency band detection can be used, which helps improve detection capability. In addition, this paper proposes a lightweight RFID tag spectrum dynamic detection and data wireless transmission architecture, which is more convenient and flexible and conducive to the development of experiments and intelligent data collection. The proposed concept provides a feasible idea to realize the possibility of chipless RFID tag detection equipment in mobile detection.
The limitation of this paper is that the experiments are carried out under a single variable condition and no further studies have been carried out on the simultaneous changes in temperature and humidity. In this work, the proposed low-cost mobile detection scheme is based on lightweight VNA, and further research needs to be carried out with higher gain transceiver antennas. In the future, customized chipless RFID readers and communication protocols will be developed and this work can greatly encourage the large-scale deployment of chipless RFID tag sensors.
