Homoscatter: Towards efficient connectivity for ZigBee backscatter system
@article{Xu2021HomoscatterTE, title={Homoscatter: Towards efficient connectivity for ZigBee backscatter system}, author={Zhao Yang Xu and Wei Gong}, journal={ArXiv}, year={2021}, volume={abs/2111.02140} }
Recent advances in backscatter open a promising direction for ultra-low power communication. However, the state-of-art ZigBee backscatter system, Interscatter, has several drawbacks to deploy. Its backscatter tag and exciting source, Bluetooth, can hardly decode packets from other ZigBee nodes, which left Interscatter one-way communication. Besides, it adopts instantaneous phase change to modulate information, producing obvious sidelobes and interfering devices working on neighboring channels…Â

Reliable Backscatter with Commodity BLE
- Computer ScienceIEEE INFOCOM 2020 - IEEE Conference on Computer Communications
- 2020
RBLE is a reliable BLE backscatter system that works with a single commodity receiver that introduces direct frequency shift modulation with the single tone generated by an excitation BLE device, making robust single-bit modulation possible and presents BLE packet regeneration that uses adaptive encoding to enhance reliability for various channel conditions.

Multiprotocol backscatter for personal IoT sensors
- Computer ScienceCoNEXT
- 2020
It is shown for the first time that the backscatter tag can identify various excitation signals in an ultra-low-power way, including WiFi, Bluetooth, and ZigBee, and it is demonstrated that it can leverage excitation diversity to provide uninterrupted communication and greater throughput gains, whereas the single-protocol tag being idle when target carriers are not available.
