A bendable UHF RFID tag antenna using non-uniform meandered lines for
retail garments in the textile industry is presented. Based on an
earlier UHF RFID tag antenna using nonuniform meandered lines, the
proposed tag is fully bendable and aimed to be embedded in retail
garments for long-life cycles. As a result, a relatively low cost, wide
band, compactness and good conjugate matching with good dipole-like read
range is presented. Results showed an antenna with a wide bandwidth of
900MHz and a long read range of 10.1m making the UHF RFID tag antenna
using non-uniform meandered lines a potential candidate for retail
garments in bendable applications of the textile industry. Simulations
are corroborated by measurements and are in fairly agreement.05 Feb 2021Submitted to Engineering Reports 06 Feb 2021Submission Checks Completed
