This paper presents a passive displacement sensor based on a normal mode helical antenna. The sensor consists of an external helical antenna and an inserting dielectric rod. First, the perturbation theory is adopted to demonstrate that both the electric intensity and magnetic intensity have a noticeable gradient change within the in-and-out entrance of the helical antenna, which will cause the sensor to experience a resonant frequency shift. This phenomenon was further verified by numerical simulation using the Ansoft high frequency structure simulator (HFSS), and results show the linear correlation between the retrieved resonant frequency and the displacement. Two sets of proposed sensors were fabricated. The experiments validated that the resonant frequency shifts are linearly proportional to the applied displacement, and the sensing range can be adjusted to accommodate the user's needs.
