Abstract :
Radio frequency identification (RFID) of objects or people has become very popular in many services in industry, distribution logistics, manufacturing companies and goods flow systems. When RFID frequency rises into the microwave region, the tag antenna must be carefully designed to match the free space and to the following ASIC. In this paper, we present a novel folded dipole antenna with a very simple configuration. The required input impedance can be achieved easily by choosing suitable geometry parameters.
