Near-field induction voltage boost circuit

Abstract

One example discloses a near-field circuit configured to be coupled to a near-field antenna wherein the near-field antenna includes, a first conductive structure, a second conductive structure, a first feeding connection, and a second feeding connection, wherein the conductive structures are configured to transmit and/or receive non-propagating quasi-static electric (E) field signals, the near-field circuit including: a transmit circuit having a first coupling connection and a second coupling connection; a voltage boost circuit configured to be coupled in series between the first coupling connection of the transmit circuit and the first feeding connection of the near-field antenna; wherein the second coupling connection of the transmit circuit is configured to be coupled to the second feeding connection of the near-field antenna.
