Abstract :
Recently, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) systems have been widely developed. The wristband type RFID tag is one of the applications for personal identification. In this case, since the RFID antenna is in the vicinity of a human, the human body affects the antenna characteristics. Therefore, the analyses of the performances of the RFID antenna are required. In this paper, the antenna inside the wristband was numerically analyzed and measured using the layer structural arm model. As a result, characteristics of the antenna were clarified.
