Abstract :
A dual band monopole antenna for passive RFID tags is presented, simulated with suitable bandwidth
and gain for RFID application. The monopole is optimized using HFSS to obtain dual band
characteristics. This paper presents a dual-band monopole antenna suitable for passive RFID applications
which operates at 2.45 GHz and 5.8 GHz. This antenna is designed with low cost and low
profile substrate to achieve a reasonable gain. This antenna has a total area of 38Ö28mm and is
mounted on an FR4 substrate with a thickness of 1.6mm, dielectric permittivity constant 4.4, and
loss tangent of 0.025.
