Simulation platform for UHF RFID

Developing modern integrated and embedded);stems require well-designed processes to ensure flexibility and in-dependency. These features are related to exchangeability of hardware targets and to the ability of choosing the target at a very late stage in the implementation process. Especially in. the field of ultra high frequency radio frequency identification (UHF RFID) the model-based design approach leads to expected results. Beside a clear design process, which is applied in this work to build the required system architecture, the scope for UHFRFID simulations is defined and an extendable platform based on The MathWorks Matlab Simulink((R)) is developed. This simulation platform, based on a multi-processor hardware target. using a Texas Instruments TMS320C6416 digital signal processor is able to run UHF RFID tag simulations of very high complexity. The highest effort is made to ensure flexibility to handle future simulation models on. the same hardware target. realized by the continuous design and implementation flow? of this platform based on. model-based design.
