Abstract
Retrodirectivity have several important applications in communication and in wireless power transfer. In this paper, frequency sensitive retrodirective transceiver is proposed. It receives a signal and infers its direction from its frequency spectrum, then it can transmit a new signal back to the same or other direction at the designer wish. To determine the direction of the coming signal, a 0.85-1.15GHz frequency scanning phased array antenna is used so that the received signal would have a distorted spectrum with the maximum amplitude frequency component linked to the direction of the signal. Based on the frequency scanning, the retrodirectivity system can be used for wireless power transfer or for reactive jamming Special circuit is designed to receive the signal with strongest power and to isolate the frequency component with maximum amplitude. Phase-locked loop (PLL) circuit is used to link such frequency to specific phase shift that is introduced to the transmitter array antenna to send a new signal to the same direction of the received signal. ADS simulation is performed to demonstrate the performance of each block.
