Accurate and efficient analytical electrical model of antenna for NFC applications

An accurate, compact, efficient analytical model at the electrical level of antennas dedicated to NFC (Near Field Communication) applications is presented in this paper. The model takes into account the skin effect, which is usually neglected in existing electrical models while it constitutes a major issue in the NFC context. The proposed model is validated with respect to finite element simulation. Comparison with most significant state-of-the-art models proves the proposed analytical model to be more accurate and efficient for antenna modeling in the NFC context.
