Abstract
A novel compact planar antenna for passive UHF radio frequency identification (RFID) tags is presented. Instead of using meander-line sections, much smaller open complementary split ring resonator (OCSRR) particles are connected in series to create a small dipole with a conjugate match to the power harvesting circuit on the passive RFID tag. The manufactured (prototype) OCSRR RFID tag presented here has an antenna input impedance of 15.8 + J142.5 Ω at a frequency of 920 MHz and a max read range of 5.48 m. This performance is achieved with overall tag dimensions of 0.036λ0 × 0.17λ0 where λ0 is the free space wavelength of 920 MHz.Keywords
