  • Abstract
    This paper documents the design of a low-cost RFID tag that is operable among metallic surfaces. The tag uses a loop type antenna that is small, flexible, and vialess. In addition, the design only requires low-cost, easy-to-obtain materials. The tag has been successfully tested on metal at 915MHz. Thus, the tag can be used in non-ideal settings or as surface mounts on metallic objects. Simulation and experimental results are also discussed in the paper.
