Title: A High-Gain Passive UHF-RFID Tag with Increased Read Range. Author: Zuffanelli S, Aguila P, Zamora G, Paredes F, Martin F, Bonache J. Journal: Sensors (Basel); 2016 Jul 22; 16(7):. PubMed ID: 27455274. Abstract: In this work, a passive ultra-high frequency radio-frequency identification UHF-RFID tag based on a 1.25 wavelengths thin dipole antenna is presented for the first time. The length of the antenna is properly chosen in order to maximize the tag read range, while maintaining a reasonable tag size and radiation pattern. The antenna is matched to the RFID chip by means of a very simple matching network based on a shunt inductance. A tag prototype, based on the Alien Higgs-3 chip, is designed and fabricated. The overall dimensions are 400 mm × 14.6 mm, but the tag width for most of its length is delimited by the wire diameter (0.8 mm). The measured read range exhibits a maximum value of 17.5 m at the 902-928 MHz frequency band. This represents an important improvement over state-of-the-art passive UHF-RFID tags.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
