  • Abstract
    This paper introduces for the first time a novel flexible magnetic composite material for RFID and wearable RF antennas. The successful implementation of the flexible magnetic composite material will enable the significant miniaturization of RF passives and antennas in UHF frequency bands, especially for applications requiring conformal modules that can be easily fine-tuned. A conformal RFID tag working at 480MHz is then fabricated and the miniaturization concept proven.
