  • Abstract
    The flexible electro-thread UHF RFID tag antenna has been designed using T-matching method. The antenna size is compact than conventional dipole antenna and reading range is about 2.4 m, better than conventional UHF RFID tags made with copper. The future works are the optimizing size to have better reading range, and finding applications of fabric and electro-thread tag antennas.
