Abstract :
In this paper we present and analyze the Albano-patch antenna, a folded microstrip patch-type tag antenna mounted on a box corner. The radiation properties of the antenna design are analyzed with finite element method (FEM) simulations and the tag´s performance is evaluated with read range measurements
