Abstract:
The authors examine some issues arising in the situations when inquiry officers and investigators face hostile speech from interrogated persons during the pre-trial interrogations. The authors analyze research publications that present a variety of views on the concept of «hostile speech» in psychology and jurisprudence; they also identify the reasons why interrogated persons use such speech. It is stressed that when an inquiry officer or an interrogator faces such a reaction during the preliminary investigation, they should immediately neutralize hostile speech and eliminate its causes (the first group of tasks), preserve self-control (restraint) and ability to work (the second group of tasks), and choose the optimal line of behavior (line of interrogation). The authors justify the choice of the corresponding line of interrogation depending on the behavior of the interrogated person: in cases of hostile speech, the line of interrogation could be passive wait-and-see, i.e. without any reaction to the outbursts of the interrogated person if the aggression has objective causes, or active wait-and-see if there are no such causes. Additional mechanisms of counteracting hostile speech from an interrogated person or reducing its intensity, as well as preserving the self-control of the inquiry officer or an interrogator, include using different psychological methods of interrogation: shifting the gaze; activating the positive features of the interrogated person; blocking the negative content; silence; stopping or putting off the interrogation. Since targeted hostile speech leaves a strong trace in the mental state of the recipient and creates a high possibility of conflict between the participants of preliminary investigation, an inquiry officer or an interrogator should learn to control their verbal and non-verbal reactions. The authors stress the necessity of developing self-control through special exercises because it is very important for an interrogator to develop an ability to regulate their own emotional state, manifested in the ability to concentrate, sustain and switch volitional attention though the creation of mental images.

Abstract:
Coil-coupled passive sensors can be interrogated without contact, exploiting the magnetic coupling between two coils forming a telemetric proximity link. A primary coil connected to the interface circuit forms the readout unit, while a passive sensor connected to a secondary coil forms the sensor unit. This work is focused on the interrogation of sensor units based on resonance, denoted as resonant sensor units, in which the readout signals are the resonant frequency and, possibly, the quality factor. Specifically, capacitive and electromechanical piezoelectric resonator sensor units are considered. Two interrogation techniques, namely a frequency-domain technique and a time-domain technique, have been analyzed, that are theoretically independent of the coupling between the coils which, in turn, ensure that the sensor readings are not affected by the interrogation distance. However, it is shown that the unavoidable parasitic capacitance in parallel to the readout coil introduces, for both techniques, an undesired dependence of the readings on the interrogation distance. This effect is especially marked for capacitance sensor units. A compensation circuit is innovatively proposed to counteract the effects of the parasitic input capacitance, and advantageously obtain distance-independent readings in real operating conditions. Experimental tests on a coil-coupled capacitance sensor with resonance at 5.45 MHz have shown a deviation within 1.5 kHz, i.e., 300 ppm, for interrogation distances of up to 18 mm. For the same distance range, with a coil-coupled quartz crystal resonator with a mechanical resonant frequency of 4.432 MHz, variations of less than 1.8 Hz, i.e., 0.5 ppm, have been obtained.

Abstract:
We describe a wireless microsystem for gastrointestinal manometry that couples a microfabricated capacitive transducer to a dual-axis inductor, forming a resonant inductor-capacitor (LC) sensor within an ingestible 3D printed biocompatible capsule measuring ø 12 mm × 24 mm. An inductively coupled external telemetry unit wirelessly monitors the pressure dependent resonant frequency of the LC sensor, eliminating the need for integrated power sources within the ingested capsule. In vitro tests in saline show pressure response of −0.6 kHz/mmHg, interrogation distance up to 6 cm, and resolution up to 0.8 mmHg. In vivo functionality is validated with gastrointestinal pressure monitoring in a canine beagle over a 26-hour period.

Abstract:
Active, nondestructive interrogation with neutrons and photons has seen a renaissance in recent years, owing to a broad spectrum of important applications in security, nuclear nonproliferation, contraband detection and materials analysis. Active methods are of high interest for such applications because they provide at least an order of magnitude greater sensitivity than passive methods. Accelerator-based neutron and photon active methods exploit two important factors to attain greater sensitivity: these are (i) the control of interrogating beam properties such as directionality, energy, intensity, polarization and the temporal distribution of radiation; (ii) well-founded, low energy nuclear physics that yields distinct "signatures" for elemental and isotopic content. This review addresses accelerator-based neutron and photon nondestructive testing methods and issues when applied to modern and emerging wide-ranging challenges in nondestructive detection.

Abstract:
A passive wireless sensor is designed, fabricated and tested for the measurement of AC electric field in the vicinity of high voltage apparatus. This sensor is applicable in remote condition monitoring of high voltage apparatus where close distance measurements raises safety hazards for operators. The sensor is designed using a coaxial cavity resonator structure (in TEM mode) capacitively coupled to varactors. The resonance frequency of the sensor shifts corresponding to the capacitance variation of the varactors which in turn is perturbed by the external electric field. The electric field surrounding the apparatus induces a bias voltage over the terminals of the varactors. Therefore, the resonance frequency changes proportional to the inducing external electric field and correspondingly to the medium/high voltage. A printed circuit board on the top of the cavity provides coupling between the cavity and varactors and also between the varactors and the external field produced by the high voltage apparatus. The sensor structure is designed to resonate in the range of 2.4 GHz to 2.5 GHz of the industrial, scientific and medical (ISM) radio frequency band. A remote interrogation system identifies the instantaneous resonance frequency of the sensor by transmitting pulses of radio frequency (RF) signal and recording the ring back of the resonator. The ring back is down converted and analyzed to determine the resonance frequency of the sensor. Two possible applications of the sensor, i.e. voltage measurement and defect detection of insulators, are demonstrated by experimental results.

Abstract:
In this thesis I explore radio detection and ranging (RADAR) and software defined radio (SDR) in the context of wireless passive sensor interrogation. A RADAR topology is selected based upon preliminary measurements using ordinary laboratory instrumentation and then used for construction of a prototype X-band wireless measurement system using commercial, off-the-shelf (COTS) components. This research explores the feasibility of wireless passive sensor interrogation through practical application of SDR and RADAR techniques to the interrogation of a wireless passive resonator signal. This work serves as a foundation for further research on sensor interrogation through establishment of critical system parameters in the design of wireless measurement systems.

Full text
Abstract:
La recherche repose sur le rôle primordial de l'angoisse dans le mouvement de la crise. Les différents processus pulsionnels donnent lieu à la constitution du concept d'angoisse paroxystique. Celui-ci s'extraie de l'analyse d'une expression d'angoisse non déterminée dans un syndrome spécifique et significative de l'impact du débordement agressif de la pulsion d'autodestruction. L'introduction du concept d'angoisse paroxystique est élaborée, d'un point de vue métapsychologique, tant dans son versant quantitatif que qualitatif. Il rend compte, d'une décharge pulsionnelle violente : un agir indiquant la singularité d'une angoisse a-structurelle, une désorganisation psychique mortifère. Son retentissement est d'abord abordé sous son aspect comportemental, une mise en acte pulsionnelle : un agir connexité entre l'acting out et le passage à l'acte puis orienté vers la crise suicidaire introduisant un « recours à l'acte ». Par la suite sous son aspect somatique : persistance de la souffrance psychique envisagée dans les symptômes corporels. Et enfin, le sens d'une progression autodestructrice dévoilant une violence interne est précisé et permet de différencier l'agressivité de la destructivité et de soulever la problématique narcissique. L'expérimentation fournit un éclaircissement sur le fonctionnement psychopathologique et sur le mode résolutoire de l'acte, se déploie vers des problématiques liées à la dépendance affective, à l'addiction, précise le rôle de l'intersubjectivité et soulève des opportunités conceptuelles intéressantes.

Dans le cadre, d'une description des aspects et des temps nous sommes contraints de faire une étude générale de la morphologie verbale et des catégories grammaticales de l'arabe standard. Mais nous devons aussi travailler sur les mêmes structures en français qui est la langue source de nos apprenants afin de mettre en regard les deux systèmes linguistiques. Le second visage de ce travail est nettement plus technologique.

But we are also brought to work on the same structures in French which is the source language of the learners in order to make a comparative study of the two language-systems.

Full text
Abstract:
L'objectif de cette thèse était de développer un capteur de température passif sans fil à transduction électromagnétique utilisant un couplage électromagnétique - fluide. Le principe de ce type de capteur est basé sur la dilation thermique d'un fluide dans un micro-canal qui modifie les propriétés électromagnétiques d'un dispositif aux fréquences millimétriques. Deux types de capteurs de température qui utilisent la transduction électromagnétique et la micro-fluidique ont été étudiés. Le premier est constitué d'une capacité planaire variable à l'aide d'un fluide diélectrique (eau distillée). La capacité est constituée par des électrodes en cuivre déposées sur un substrat en verre. La variation d'impédance, obtenue lors de la progression du front d'eau dans le micro-canal, permet de modifier l'impédance de charge d'une antenne et module ainsi le niveau de l'écho RADAR. Le second capteur utilise un fluide conducteur (Galinstan) qui court-circuite les deux brins d'une antenne dipôle lorsque le liquide se dilate. La structure utilisée est constituée d'un réseau d'antenne dont les deux brins sont court-circuités progressivement pour des températures différentes. On obtient ainsi une modulation de l'écho RADAR.

Abstract:
The lack of passive, wireless, chemical and biological sensor systems is a significant impediment to sensor system applications. While active sensors with a wireless communications link continue to decrease in power consumption, they still require a power source, such as a battery. This active power consumption limits the useful life of the sensor and its applications. A more attractive solution would be a passive, wireless, chemical and biological sensor integrated with a wireless interrogation platform to monitor the sensor. The focus of this thesis is the realization of a wireless sensor interrogator capable of monitoring multiple, passive, resonant-frequency sensors. It is demonstrated, using Frequency Modulation Spectroscopy techniques, that the resonant frequency of a passive sensor can be detected and tracked over time. Simulated results are presented that verify the functionality of the proposed wireless sensor interrogator. In addition, an experimental hardware setup and subsequent experimental results are presented that verify the simulation results. Considerations for the design of the wireless sensor interrogator and opportunities for future research are discussed.

Abstract:
This dissertation investigates the use of the harmonic radar technique for passive wireless sensing applications. Issues of DC power consumption, high RF activation power, large node size, and short communication range associated with the existing passive wireless sensing technologies are addressed by the development of novel, completely passive, high efficiency, compact 3-D harmonic sensor nodes. The node transceiver employs a passive frequency doubler to return the second harmonic of the interrogation signal, and electrically-small 3-D antennas to achieve the compactness and high efficiency. The developed nodes fit inside a sphere with a diameter < 3 cm and achieve communication range > 60 m using a 43 dBm EIRP interrogator. Effective modulation is demonstrated experimentally using low cost commercial vibration sensors. To address major challenges associated with long-range, embedded, passive wireless sensing including sensor node identification and remote channel calibration, a 3-D dual-channel transceiver is developed. To the best of the author's knowledge, the presented dual-channel transceiver is the first completely passive design with built-in passive remote channel calibration and identification capabilities, and the presented nodes have the best overall performance among previously published designs, in terms of conversion efficiency, communication range, and occupied volume. To reduce the cost and weight and improve the manufacturing process of the proposed nodes, the 3-D digital additive manufacturing and conformal direct printing technologies are employed. The harmonic interrogator antenna design is also an underlying focus of this work. Different interrogator antenna candidates are developed based on different design approaches. The first approach is based on the use of dual-channel antenna array, where one channel is used for transmission and the second channel is used for reception. Two dual-channel harmonic interrogator antennas that consist of 4-element circular patch antenna arrays and 2-element quasi-Yagi dipole antenna arrays are implemented. The second approach employs mechanically reconfigurable antennas to reduce the size and maintain persistent radiation properties over wide frequency bandwidth. Two mechanical reconfiguration methods are developed; the first method is based on the use of Hoberman's planar foldable linkage to vary the operating frequency of planar circular patch antennas and the second mechanical reconfiguration method is based on the use of a rack and pinion mechanism to reconfigure dual-band slot antennas. The third approach employs a single channel multi-octave Vivaldi antenna to provide the capability to interrogate a large number of harmonic tags that are widely spaced in frequency. To improve the antenna radiation performance over a broad frequency range, a new method based on the introduction of a parasitic elliptical patch in the flare aperture is proposed. This method enables gain and bandwidth improvement compared to what has been reported for Vivaldi antennas with a compact size. To provide the interrogator the capability to steer the radiation beam for locating and tracking sensor nodes, a topology to develop a miniature, non-dispersive switchable 4-bit phase shifter is proposed on the basis of composite right/left handed transmission line unit cells.

Abstract:
Leopardi nelle prime pagine dello Zibaldone aveva osservato che l’«amore dei lumi» induce la passione per la filosofia, facendone un elemento fondante della cultura moderna. Nessun dubbio che in questa prospettiva un posto di rilievo spetti allora al Candide di Voltaire, o al Rousseau che unisce pensar filosofico, istanze educative, passione politica e schermata autobiografia. Ma per passare dal conte al romanzo, dall’apologo e dai trattati a personaggi complessi che pure mantengono una forte allure speculativa, bisognava lasciare il Settecento, sperimentare il Romanticismo, nutrire nel secolo successivo le rêveries dei nuovi promeneurs solitaires con l’inquietudine e gli interrogativi di Dostoevskij, Kafka, Sartre, Camus, e di Pirandello, Proust, Musil…, di quanti hanno accompagnato la passione per il racconto con lo smascheramento di ogni ingannevole teodicea. Riconducendo il romanzo, a partire dall’ironica pensosità cervantina, ai borgesiani intrecci, alle ansie esistenziali. Ma, in assenza di dichiarazioni, dove trovare la prova della presenza del philosophique nel romanzo, o come individuare testi a cui si addica la definizione di roman philosophique? Questo libro, progettato e curato da Anna Dolfi, non solo pone il problema, ma tenta di rispondervi, mentre intreccia le idee del/da romanzo con le teorie costruttive, e attiva il confronto tra insignificante e significanza, emblemi e codici mitici, semiosi e destino, osservando come il linguaggio, nello sfilare degli autori, modifichi se stesso fino ad arrivare alla figuratività del graphic-novel. Punto estremo d’arrivo per un percorso che – per campioni – fissa significativi frammenti nel caleidoscopio per altri versi infinito del narrare.

Full text
Abstract:
The nine essays in The Appearing of God are situated on the fluid border of philosophy and theology, and follow a path leading from classic modern philosophical discussions of experience to some leading themes in contemporary phenomenology. After an introductory exploration of Kierkegaard’s classic text that straddles the border between philosophy and theology, the reader is introduced to Husserl’s account of perception, with its demonstration that the field of phenomena is wider than that of perceptible entities, allowing phenomena that give themselves primarily to feeling. Husserl’s theory of reduction is then subjected to a critique, which identifies phenomena wholly resistant to reduction. John Paul II’s encyclical on Faith and Reason elicits a critical rejection of its attempt to reify the boundary between natural and supernatural, the author asserting in its place that love is the distinguishing mark of the knowledge of God. This theme is continued in a discussion of Heidegger’s Being and Time, where a passing reference to Pascal invites interrogation of the work’s “methodological atheism,” which is found to leave more room than appears for love of the divine. The next three chapters deal with the themes of Anticipation, Gift, and Self-Identity, all exploring aspects of a single theme, the relation of present experience to the passage of time, and especially to the future. The final chapter, which is also the most personal, draws the main themes of the book together in asking how theology as an intellectual enterprise relates to the practice of worship.

Full text
Abstract:
Carl Schmitt’s conceptual history of war is routinely invoked to comprehend the contemporary mutations in the concept and practice of war. This literature has passively relied on Schmitt’s interpretation of the nomos of the Ius Publicum Europaeum, which traced the transition from early modern ‘non-discriminatory war’ to the US–American promotion of discriminatory warfare as a new category in liberal international law . This chapter provides a critical reconstruction of Schmitt’s antiliberal narrative of war and argues that his polemical mode of concept formation led to a defective and, ultimately, ideological counterhistory of absolutist warfare, designed to denigrate liberalism’s wars as total while remaining silent on Nazi Germany’s de facto total wars. The historical critique is supplemented by an interrogation of his theoretical presuppositions: decisionism, the concept of the political, and concrete order thinking. It shows that Schmitt’s history of warfare is not only empirically defective but also theoretically unsecured by a succession of arbitrarily deployed and hyperabstract theoretical registers. At the center of Schmitt’s work yawns a huge lacuna: the absence of social relations as a category of analysis.

Full text
Abstract:
This is a study of the unlikely “career” of anxiety in nineteenth- and twentieth-century philosophy. Anxiety is an affect, something more subtle, sometimes more persistent, than an emotion or a passion. It lies at the intersection of embodiment and cognition, sensation and emotion. But anxiety also runs like a red thread through European thought, beginning from receptions of Kant’s transcendental project. Like a symptom of the quest to situate and give life to the philosophical subject, like a symptom of an interrogation that strove to take form in European intellectual culture, angst (from anxiety to anguish) passed through Schelling’s Romanticism into Schopenhauer’s metaphysics, until it was approached existentially by Kierkegaard. Nietzsche situates it in the long history of producing an animal able to promise. Its returns in the twentieth century allow us to grasp the connection between phenomenology’s exploration of passivity, followed by interpretations of the human reality in a world and open to a call that it can hardly assume. The study thus begins with Kant; it probes late idealism and Romanticism, the metaphysical vitalism that flickered with Schopenhauer, the aesthetics and religious senses of angst in Nietzsche and Kierkegaard. It turns to three avatars of anxiety in the evolving psychoanalysis before exploring the return to rationalism and formalism in twentieth-century phenomenology, followed again by efforts to resituate human beings in world and body as well as, significantly, before the anxiogenic “other.”

Abstract:
Over a relatively short period of time, Beijing moved from passive involvement with the UN to active engagement. How are we to make sense of the People’s Republic of China’s (PRC) embrace of the UN, and what does its engagement mean in larger terms? Is it a ‘supporter’ that takes its fair share of responsibilities, or a ‘spoiler’ that seeks to transform the UN’s contribution to world order? Certainly, it is difficult to label it a ‘shirker’ in the last decade or more, given Beijing’s apparent appreciation of the UN, its provision of public goods to the organization, and its stated desire to offer ‘Chinese wisdom and a Chinese approach to solving the problems facing mankind’. This study traces questions such as these, interrogating the value of such categorization through direct focus on Beijing’s involvement in one of the most contentious areas of UN activity—human protection—contentious because the norm of human protection tips the balance away from the UN’s Westphalian state-based profile, towards the provision of greater protection for the security of individuals and their individual liberties. The argument that follows shows that, as an ever-more crucial actor within the United Nations, Beijing’s rhetoric and some of its practices are playing an increasingly important role in determining how this norm is articulated and interpreted. In some cases, the PRC is also influencing how these ideas of human protection are implemented. At stake in the questions this book tackles is both how we understand the PRC as a participant in shaping global order, and the future of some of the core norms that constitute global order.

Abstract:
This chapter charts the infrastructure of intelligence created by the US military on the ground in southern Korea and positions this project within a larger story of Korea's position relative to the global shifts of sovereignty, recognition, and warfare through the twentieth century. Language is an especially pivotal realm for power in this chapter, as close readings of diplomatic memoranda and military government ordinances show how US agents and officials attempted to fashion and control a Korean subject suitable for their project of military occupation. But the Korean populace were neither passive readers nor silent listeners, and Korean political organizations distributed their own pamphlets and lined walls with posters. In front of the Koreans' undeniable demands and harvest uprisings, the United States Army Military Government in Korea depended on the Counterintelligence Corps to provide certainty and knowledge about the Korean individual subject.

Abstract:
This chapter is an investigation into Geoffrey Hill’s philosophy of language, which is at its heart philological and etymological, and which engages questions of theology, metaphysics, ontology, ethics, and poetics. It is a philosophy that is perpetually led back to states of self-opposition and contradiction, latterly described as ‘agon’, and ‘gnostic poiesis’. Etymologically this is manifested in the terms which receive extensive poetic and critical attention in Hill—terms which lie on an ‘active–passive divide’—as well as in the method of interrogation, which is self-oppositionally both a ‘tearing up by the roots’ and a ‘rediscovering’ and careful ‘nurturing’ of them. Hill’s various paradigms for language and for poetry are examined, centring on Hebrew language, the fable of the Fall of Man, Original Sin and its early modern metaphysical extensions, and gnosticism, as well as his sources in Milton and Coleridge.

Abstract:
This chapter examines the surveillance methods used by the MI5. It is a curious feature of MI5’s mandate that it included nothing about the methods to be used for the purposes of the defence of the realm, which was its core task. The Security Service would obtain information about individuals and organizations in a number of ways, which might be described as volunteers who spontaneously reported fellow citizens; monitoring by Special Branch, infiltration, and the use of informers; watching and following; interrogation and questioning; and the interception of communications (mail, telegrams, and telephones); as well as the use of secret microphones hidden in various locations; and foreign security and intelligence agencies. The chapter also looks at the different circumstances in which these different forms of surveillance were used: a contrast between routine and intense surveillance; between passive and active surveillance; and between constant and periodic surveillance.

Abstract:
<em>Abstract</em>.-Tagging fish with electronic tags can provide information on movement, migration, behavior, and stock structure while diadromous species are at sea. The state of the art technology for tracking fishes in the marine environment includes two families of tags. Archival tags store data and either relay them to satellites or require recapture for interrogation. Low return rates for diadromous species make these tags very expensive to use. A second type, acoustic tags, sends signals to passive receivers. Information is collected from the fish only when it is within range of a receiver. Technology is now being developed to mesh these tags into a fully integrated tag that will permit archived data to be transmitted acoustically over multiple frequencies to receivers allowing data retrieval without recapturing the animal. The new technology includes a "business card" tag that is a miniaturized receiver coupled with a coded pulse transmitter. These tags will exchange and record individual-specific codes when two animals carrying them come within acoustic range of each other, which will allow data from many animals to be moved ashore through few animals. These devices would be ideal for quantifying the degree of school fidelity (or, conversely, mixing) or the degree of at sea interaction of fishes from different river systems and provide ecological information to enhance management in an ecosystem approach to fisheries.

Abstract:
International human rights law and international humanitarian law absolutely prohibit all forms of torture and cruel, inhuman, or degrading treatment (CIDT) at all times and against anyone, even the worst of criminals. International criminal law moreover provides for the individual criminal responsibility of perpetrators. Nevertheless, there remains a number of legal and practical challenges to overcome in order to ensure the effectiveness of this prohibition. The most visible challenge pertains to the implementation of the prohibition not only in domestic law but also in the concrete practice of law enforcement officials and other State agents. Other—less visible and insufficiently discussed—challenges concern laws and practices that may indirectly impact the effectiveness of the prohibition of torture and CIDT and whose acceptability under public international law is not crystal clear. For instance, is the prohibition of using evidence obtained through torture/CIDT (so-called exclusionary rule) absolute and applicable in all cases? How far does the international law obligation to prosecute and punish torture/CIDT perpetrators go? To what extent may individual perpetrators of torture/CIDT invoke mitigating circumstances or even justifications to avoid or diminish punishment for the commission of such acts in extreme circumstances? Does the passing of lenient sentences upon individual perpetrators of ill-treatment entail the responsibility of the State as a failure to punish? The present chapter will discuss these issues in light of contemporary international practice of various human rights bodies (treaty bodies and UN special procedures) and international/mixed criminal courts and tribunals.

Abstract:
Radio frequency identification (RFID) is a technique using two-way radio transmission pattern to transmit information through the device of interrogator (also called reader) and tag. It is considered to be one of the most popular techniques for internet of things (IOT). In this chapter, the authors study indoor localization techniques based on passive UHF RFID, which works around the frequency of 900MHz. Passive RFID has the advantage of reasonable reading distance, non-contact, easy deployment, and low cost. The tags do not need battery and it can harvest power through wireless charging. Due to those advantages, passive UHF RFID positioning has always been an active research area in the past few decades. This chapter discusses the key techniques in passive UHF RFID positioning, which include range-based, range-free, tag-based (device-based), tag-free (device-free), and improved positioning methods. All the techniques studied are suited to be implemented in RFID systems, each of which can be accommodated to a specific application scenario.

Abstract:
This paper presents an antenna sensor that can detect and monitor crack remotely and passively. Since this antenna sensor does not need electric wires for power supply and data transmission, it has great potential to be implemented as large area sensor skin with high spatial resolution, simple configuration and remote-interrogation capability. The sensor fabrication, the sensor characterization procedure and the non-contact interrogation technique are presented. The experimental results demonstrated that the antenna sensor is sensitive to crack growth and can be interrogated remotely.

Abstract:
This paper presents the design, simulation, and preliminary measurement of a passive (battery-free) frequency doubling antenna sensor for strain sensing. Illuminated by a wireless reader, the sensor consists of three components, i.e. a receiving antenna with resonance frequency f0, a transmitting antenna with resonance frequency 2f0, and a matching network between the receiving and transmitting antennas. A Schottky diode is integrated in the matching network. Exploiting nonlinear circuit behavior of the diode, the matching network is able to generate output signal at doubled frequency of the reader interrogation signal. The output signal is then backscattered to the reader through the sensor-side transmitting antenna. Because the backscattered signal has a doubled frequency, it is easily distinguished by the reader from environmental reflections of original interrogation signal. When one of the sensor-side antennas, say receiving antenna, is bonded to a structure that experiences strain/deformation, resonance frequency of the antenna shifts accordingly. Through wireless interrogation, this resonance frequency shift can be measured by the reader and used to derive strain in the structure. Since operation power of the diode is harvested from the reader interrogation signal, no other power source is needed by the sensor. This means the frequency doubling antenna sensor is wireless and passive. Based on simulation results, strain sensitivity of this novel frequency doubling antenna sensor is around −3.84 kHz/με.
