As induced voltage u Q2 = u i increases, the value of the shunt resistor R S falls,
thus reducing the quality of the transponder resonant circuit to such a degree that the
voltage u 2 remains constant. To calculate the value of the shunt resistor for differ-
ent variables, we refer back to equation (4.29) and introduce the parallel connection
of R L and R S in place of the constant load resistor R L . The equation can now be
solved with respect to R S . The variable voltage u 2 is replaced by the constant voltage
u Transp — the desired input voltage of the data carrier — giving the following equation
for R S :

Figure 4.18 shows the graph of voltage u 2 when such an 'ideal' shunt regulator is
used. Voltage u 2 initially increases in proportion with the coupling coefficient k .When
u 2 reaches its desired value, the value of the shunt resistor begins to fall in inverse
proportion to k , thus maintaining an almost constant value for voltage u 2 .
Figure 4.19 shows the variable value of the shunt resistor R S as a function of the
coupling coefficient. In this example the value range for the shunt resistor covers several
powers of ten. This can only be achieved using a semiconductor circuit, therefore
so-called shunt or parallel regulators are used in inductively coupled transponders.
These terms describe an electronic regulator circuit, the internal resistance of which
