Statistical Analysis of Transponder Packaging in UHF RFID Systems

Packaging of RFID transponders that operate at ultrahigh frequencies (UHF) requires nontraditional materials and innovative methods in order to make a functional, reliable, and inexpensive RFID transponders. Presented is a statistical analysis along with the model as the way to evaluate measured results and provide the quality and process control for the electrical and mechanical performance of the packaging of RFID tags with respect to different manufacturing processes. The power analysis is presented in support of the statistical analysis and the sample size selection.
