Study of UHF near-field RFID antenna

The performance of a UHF near-field RFID segmented loop antenna is studied. In this report, the effects of integrating perfect electric conductor (PEC) to the segmented loop antenna will be investigated using the IE3D simulation platform then and validated through testing and measurement. Adding ar...
