Efficient directional antenna design suitable for ubiquitous power internet of things

Today’s power systems are developing from traditional multi-sensor systems to ubiquitous power Internet of Things systems. The environmental backscatter technology makes communication equipment get rid of the dependence on power supply, is more energy-efficient, and effec-tively extends the communication distance, which is very suitable for power Internet of Things sce-narios. Tag antenna is an important part of environmental backscattering, but it has problems such as low reliability and insufficient reading distance in the traditional power Internet of Things. In view of the above problems, this paper designs a double-antenna structure tag antenna, which adopts omnidirectional receiving and directional transmitting methods to achieve the purpose of comprehensive signal coverage for the power Internet of Things application scenarios. It has the characteristics of obvious gain, small side lobe, and strong anti-interference.
