  1. INTRODUCTION Nearly all modern cars are equipped with a Remote Keyless Entry system. Such systems allow the user to remotely: • Lock/Unlock doors • Open trunks • Open Doors • Arm Alarms • Set off Panic Alarms Other uses for the system have evolved, such as using the horn beep from the car to help locate it in a parking lot RKE REPEATER RIT SEINOR DESIGN ‘04

  2. OBJECTIVE The nature of RKE implementation often leads to limited range. There are several advantages to extending the range of the system. Among these is locating a lost car in a parking lot. Normal Range: 15 to 100 ft. RKE REPEATER RIT SEINOR DESIGN ‘04

  3. OBJECTIVE The objective of this design will be to extend the range of an existing RKE system to greater than 200 ft. by placing a high performance repeater in the automobile RF Repeater Extended Range: 200+ ft. RKE REPEATER RIT SEINOR DESIGN ‘04

  4. PROJECT SCOPE Customer Specifications • The repeater must be a stand alone device. • The repeater must be easy to install, not attaching to anything in the vehicle. • The repeater should be able to be sold for between $20 and $50. • The repeater should be able to interact with all or most existing RKE systems. RKE REPEATER RIT SEINOR DESIGN ‘04

  5. PROJECT SCOPE Final Design Specifications: • A repeater for RKE systems will be designed and constructed to extend the range of the preexisting systems. • It will be a stand alone device independent of the vehicle and the existing RKE system. • It will have its own power supply. • It will be small and portable. • It will be able to work with most existing RKE systems. RKE REPEATER RIT SEINOR DESIGN ‘04

  6. PROJECT SCOPE Design Constraints • Frequency Shift Keying (FSK) key fobs cannot be used • Separate units for 315 MHz and 433 MHz operation • Use of ASK modulation • Power supply is limited to batteries • Antenna must be omni-directional RKE REPEATER RIT SEINOR DESIGN ‘04

  7. RKE BACKGROUND The systems commonly operate on an unlicensed portion of the spectrum intended for intermittent transmission of digital control signals. Some common RKE systems specifications: • Frequency: 315 or 433 MHz • Data Rate: < 5000 bps • Modulation: ASK • Range: 15 to 100 ft • Output Power: 1 mW RKE REPEATER RIT SEINOR DESIGN ‘04

RKE BACKGROUND b0| b1 | . . . | bn | bn+1 | bn+2 |. . . . . . . | b60 Intro and control code “Hopping” Security Code In order to ensure the security of the transmission, a pseudo-random “hopping code” is combined with a control code. Key Fob Sends: Code 0 Car Receives Signal and Compares: Code 1 Execute Command Code 2 Received Code Code 255 *Note: Encoding of actual systems varies. For security reasons, exact specifications of many systems are not available. This is meant as a representation of such systems. RKE REPEATER RIT SEINOR DESIGN ‘04

  9. REPEATER BACKGROUND Repeating is not a new technology. Most existing repeater systems operate as follows: Normal Repeater Design: • Receives signal at some frequency ƒ • Shifts input signal by some frequency ƒ1 • Retransmits shifted signal ƒ+ƒ1 • Normally receives and retransmits on the same antenna. • The receiver and transmitter are isolated due to frequency shift • Many different repeater designs exist using this method and are used in communications. • i.e. Cellular and radio networks RKE REPEATER RIT SEINOR DESIGN ‘04

  11. DESIGN: ANTENNA • The design of the antenna is limited by the wavelength, ~1m, and the fact that it has to be omni-directional. Possible antenna designs are: RKE REPEATER RIT SEINOR DESIGN ‘04

  12. FEASIBILITY: ANTENNA RKE REPEATER RIT SEINOR DESIGN ‘04

  13. ANTENNA DESIGN The antenna used is a quarter wavelength dipole. RKE REPEATER RIT SEINOR DESIGN ‘04

  14. Impedance Matching The impedance of the antenna does not match the input impedance of T/R switch. A miss-match in impedance creates a loss in the signal. Therefore, a match was designed and is shown: RKE REPEATER RIT SEINOR DESIGN ‘04

  15. DESIGN: RECEIVER Filter # 1 Filter # 2 1st IF Stages Detector Injection Filter 1st IF Amplifier RF Amplifier 1st Local Oscillator The basic receiver design is: Requirements: • Low power consumption • Low cost • High Gain There are two design options: • Build from discrete components • Use a Receiver Chip that has been designed for RKE systems. RKE REPEATER RIT SEINOR DESIGN ‘04

  16. RECEIVER DESIGN The rfRXD0420, produced by Microchip, was chosen as the receiver chip because it best suited the specifications for the receiver. This receiver has the following properties: • Frequency Range:300-450 MHz • Modulation Types: ASK/FSK • Price: $2.79 • Current Draw: 8.2 mA and <100 nA standby • Bit Rate: 80 kbps COMPONENT: Microchip rfRXD0420 RKE REPEATER RIT SEINOR DESIGN ‘04

  17. RECEIVER DESIGN The main receiver functions are already implemented. The filter must still be designed. RKE REPEATER RIT SEINOR DESIGN ‘04

  18. Rx/Tx Switch Design There is only a single antenna for this system. Therefore, a switch is needed to keep the receiver and transmitter isolated. The switch used is ADG919, manufactured by Analog Devices. • Bandwidth: 4GHz • Isolation: 43dB • Price: $1.07 • Current Draw:<1uA RKE REPEATER RIT SEINOR DESIGN ‘04
