Sammanfattning
The principle of Harmonic Radar to track the movements of insects was first used in 1986 by Daniel Mascanzoni and Henrik Wallin at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, Uppsala, Sweden [1]. Since then, tracking land dwelling as well as flying insects has been the topic of active research, mainly focused on pests harmful to agricultural industries around the world and extensive studies have been conducted to better control the population of such species. Recent research in this area has been used for tracking insects such as Emerald Ash Borer (EAB), Honeybee, Colorado Potato Beetle, Black Vine Weevil, Asian Yellow-legged hornet etc. [1 2 3 4] but little attention has been given to make antenna designs environmentally friendly. The wire dipole (loop) design most commonly used in previous studies can be extremely harmful and in most of the cases kill the predator preying on the interrogated subject. The main motivation is to make advanced research and use suitable materials for our transponder design that will not do such harm to the ecosystem.
