Abstract
This paper presents an overview of antenna designs for passive radio frequency identification (RFID) tags for near field communication (NFC) and electronic article surveillance (EAS) systems. We discussed several antenna designs such as handheld reader antennas and fixed reader antennas for various applications. The paper also provides a brief discussion on RFID technology with its current state-of-the-art applications. We compare NFC and EAS technologies by reviewing contemporary research in these with reported antenna designs and applications. The paper discusses the design procedure for these antennas along with their characteristics and results. Moreover, the results presented by different researchers have been discussed in detail. It has been observed from the presented literature that RFID technology is key to many existing as well as future applications.
期刊介绍:
Analog Integrated Circuits and Signal Processing is an archival peer reviewed journal dedicated to the design and application of analog, radio frequency (RF), and mixed signal integrated circuits (ICs) as well as signal processing circuits and systems. It features both new research results and tutorial views and reflects the large volume of cutting-edge research activity in the worldwide field today.
A partial list of topics includes analog and mixed signal interface circuits and systems; analog and RFIC design; data converters; active-RC, switched-capacitor, and continuous-time integrated filters; mixed analog/digital VLSI systems; wireless radio transceivers; clock and data recovery circuits; and high speed optoelectronic circuits and systems.
