Modeling and simulation of a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) Tag for Hospital Applications

Abstract

Electromagnetism and all the principles associated with it have been studied extensively due, above all, to their applicability in several new technologies, including Radio Frequency Identification (RFID). This system, composed of a tag, a reader, and software, aimed at information processing, operates through wireless communication, thanks to the interaction between radio waves, more specifically, their transmission and reception. This technology becomes even more remarkable, from the integration of Artificial Intelligence, in directing the collected data, to AI algorithms, responsible for recognizing patterns, anticipating demands and improving processes. In this article, RFID technology is directed towards the hospital setting, building upon an in-depth theoretical study of improvement possibilities by integrating such systems into medical and hospital services. Furthermore, based on the modelling of an RFID tag with a chip, modifications are made to the original structure, with the insertion of resonator rings, resulting in miniaturization of the initial project, as well as redundancy in the reading process, results that were analysed in the software © CST Microwave Studio, given continuous computer simulations.
