Abstract :
Novel designs of radio-frequency identification (RFID) tag antennas with better matching characteristics to achieve extended range for passive tags are investigated in ultra-high frequency (UHF) band. A microstrip dipole antenna with or without an integrated negative impedance converter designed to cancel out the antenna´s input capacitance at resonance frequency was designed, simulated, constructed and measured for implementation in RFID applications.
