Abstract
This paper presents a mini multi-band printed omni- directional antenna with v-shaped structure for radio frequency identiflcation (RFID) applications. The proposed multi-band antenna is developed from the initial v-shaped design which is only capable of working as a single-band antenna. By deploying a concept of dipole antenna to an initial design, the proposed antenna is accomplished to operate with two difierent modes of RFID system which are passive and active modes at frequencies of 915MHz and 2.45GHz respectively. The passive RFID tag is invented when a chip of Ultra High Frequency (UHF) is integrated with a proposed multi-band antenna. This passive tag, which is able to radiate with the measured signal strength, shows that the reading ranges are boosted almost two times compared to the conventional inlay antenna. The maximum reading range of passive RFID tag with inlay antenna is 5m, though a reading range up to 10m is achievable through the deployment of the proposed antenna at a measurement fleld. Implicitly, the measurements carried out on the antenna are in good agreement with the simulated values. Moreover, the size of the mobile passive RFID tag has been substantially as 100mm £ 70mm, even though the antenna is fabricated with an inexpensive FR-4 substrate material. With the reasonable gain, coupled with cheaper material and smaller size, the proposed antenna
