Abstract
A wireless sensor includes an antenna, a sensing element, a tuning circuit, a processing module, a reference circuit block, and a transmitter. The tuning circuit adjusts the RF front-end to compensation for a change in a characteristic of the RF front end caused by the sensing element. The reference circuit block generates a signal based on a low voltage low frequency input that corresponds to a second environmental condition. The processing module generates a first digital value based on the adjustment to the RF front-end, where the first digital value is a representation of the first environmental condition, and generate a second digital value based on the signal, where the second digital value is a representation of the second environmental condition. The transmitter generates the outbound RF signal that includes at least one of the first and second digital values.
