  • Abstract
    In this paper, a planar RFID tag antenna in the UHF band that can be stuck to metallic objects is designed. The proposed tag antenna consists of a slotted radiating patch and a grounded microstrip line, which serves as an impedance matching stub between the radiator and a tag chip. The fractional return loss bandwidth for S11<;-10dB is about 9%. When the antenna is placed on the large metal platforms, the impedance matching remains almost unchanged while the reading range is increasing as the size of the metal platform is increasing.
