Abstract: |
A technique for contactless electromagnetic
interrogation of quartz resonator sensors is proposed and validated. The
technique is based on the separation in time of the excitation and detection
phases, exploiting the sensing of the transient response of the resonator.
Contactless operation is achieved by means of electromagnetic coupling
between spiral planar coils connected to the interrogation circuit and the
sensor. The typical operating frequencies of quartz resonators in the
megahertz range limit the working range to short distances. Analytical
modeling and numerical and finite element simulation of the geometry of the
coils have allowed to extend working operating distances up to 10 cm. |
