Abstract:
UHF RFID read range tests have been performed with a novel electrically small low-profile TAG antenna equipped with an artificial-like surfaces providing very good immunity against the influence of a near human body. The RFID system equipped with this antenna has been tested for the detection of a person in indoor and outdoor areas within 869 MHz band and reached read range up to 9 m.
