  • Abstract
    Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is one of the systems perform logistics or individual authentication. Recently, this system has been developed to be used in various fields. This study proposes an RFID tag antenna to manage the surgical instrument. In this paper, the characteristics of the proposed antenna mounted on the metallic surgical instruments are simulated and the communication distance of the proposed antenna is also measured.
