The Interaction of Electrostatic Discharge and RFID

The Design of an Urban Roadside Automatic Sprinkling System: Mitigation of PM2.5–10 in Ambient Air in Megacities

“…Even though this system has some advantages such as low operational cost, good controllability, no effect on traffic flow, and being able to operate at any frequency, its side effects can cause severe issues for the urban area. The side effects include the impacts of electrostatic discharge on electronic communication and devices [34][35][36], safety issues [37][38][39][40], and adverse effect on human health.…”

“…Since RASS can suppress fine and coarse particulate matters and detrimental vehicle emissions such as nitrogen oxide and sulfur oxide (SO ), it reduces the chance of acid rain which contributes to accelerated weathering of the urban buildings and infrastructures [76]. Taking into account the [34][35][36] (iii) Safety issues: gas station, and other possible dust explosion, electronic and electric equipment [37][38][39][40] (iv) Adverse health impact on human being [41] Other preventive measures, equipment, and systems Other measures not called system such as covering trucks, improving fuel quality, and reducing emission from waste incineration Costs ranging from very low to very high (i) Handling the pollution from the origin of emission (ii) Preventive action (i) Too much variability (ii) Hard to operate synchronously and synergistically other three functions (mitigate urban island in the summer, reduce air-borne flu virus in dry and cold winter, and desnow and deice in the winter), the RASS can improve the urban environment during different seasons which undoubtedly increases the attractiveness of cities. This consequently boosts the economy of the city through attracting more businesses, skilled laborers, and tourists.…”

900 MHZ radio‐frequency identification rectifier with optimization and reusing of electro‐static discharges protections in 180 nm digital CMOS technology

“…An adequate level of ESD protection is mandatory for the input pins of an RFID device because of the size of the antenna and of the material upon which the antenna is printed, that is, polymers being very prone to tribolectric effects, making ESD‐induced damage a serious problem for RFID devices . For this reason, integrated ESD protections providing a very low series resistance during discharge are required for any couple of exposed pins, that is, RF inputs ( INp and INn ) and ground ( GND ).…”

“…From (6), the power sensitivity of the device can be written as a function of the main parameters of the front end:…”

“…At the same time, RF pins must be properly protected against electro‐static discharges (ESD) causing a permanent damage of integrated input devices. This requirement is exacerbated by the printed antenna , thus forcing the designer to integrate large protection devices.…”
