Impedance measurement of dipole antenna for EPC Global compliant RFID tag
Abstract
This paper presents the design, measurement methodology and results of a dipole antenna for a RFID tag compliant to EPC Global Gen2. The impedance of the proposed antenna is match at 915 MHz. The meander-line tag antenna dimensions were optimized and evaluated using the software CST Microwave Studio. S parameters of the fabricated antenna were measured using a two-port VNA. The impedance was computed and comparisons with the simulated values were done. It was observed that erroneous material specifications can cause a significant variation in the impedance results.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
