Abstract

This paper mainly designs an UHF RFID tag antenna, and also develops a novel UHF RFID tag antenna verification development platform, that are compatible with ISO/IEC 18000- 6B Standard, operating at the 915 MHz. The new folded RFID tag antenna is designed to reduce the length of the antenna´s arms, stretch antenna´s working band width and be able to adjust antenna´s impedance. Through the simulation, the gain of this folded tag antenna is higher than the conventional dipole tag antenna. Joined with verification platform, the antenna is measured and the results match the designed parameters. The novel verification platform can reduce the design development time and the cost effectively, and therefore it has much value of application to the fast prototype design of the RFID tag antenna.
