Abstract :
Platform-tolerant tag antennas are desired for ubiquitous RFID systems. Metal-mountable or wideband tag antennas can not guarantee platform-tolerance. This paper presents the design approaches of platform-tolerant tag antennas. A compact PIFA-type UHF tag antenna is proposed accordingly. Simulation and measurement results are provided to demonstrate the platform-tolerance feature of the proposed antenna and to validate the design approaches presented.
