Abstract :
This paper has presented an omni-directional tag antenna for UHF item-level RFID applications. The RFID tag using the proposed antenna has exhibited a very good omni-directional reading pattern, which has shown great potential for item-level RFID applications in restaurants or libraries for tracking the items such as plates and books.
