Abstract :
In this paper, we present an analytical view of the maximum far-field tag gain of a typical commercially available passive UHF RFID tag design operating at 915 MHz, which is the center frequency of the Industrial, Science, and Medical (ISM) band. The far field gain is calculated using FEKO 5.3 designed by EMSS, which is a computational electromagnetic (CEM) tool, and the method used here includes both the FEM/MoM hybrid method (for the tag design), as well as Green´s function for multi-layer planar structures (the liquid layer).
