Application-Adaptable Chipless RFID Tag

Proc (IEEE Antennas Propag Soc Int Symp). 2019 Jan 14:2018:1493-1494. doi: 10.1109/apusncursinrsm.2018.8609218. Epub 2018 Jul 13.

Abstract

Chipless RFID has gained prominence due to its application versatility and cost and complexity advantages over traditional RFID. However, chipless RFID tags are typically designed for a specific application instead of being deployable for a multitude of applications. In this paper, a new approach to adaptable chipless RFID tag is proposed that can be optimized for a variety of applications, including materials characterization with tags as embedded sensors. Additionally, the designed approach renders tags that can be interrogated with a linearly polarized probe and achieves bit densities up to 27.57 bits/cm2.
