Disclosed ae fabric-based radio frequency identification (RFID) tags and methods of manufacture. The method is characterized by forming a knitted fabric from at least one primary non-conductive fiber and a secondary conductive fiber, wherein the secondary conductive fiber is distributed within the knitted fabric to form a plurality of dipole antennas; integrating an RFID inlay with each of the plurality of dipole antennas to form pairs of inlays and antennas; and, cutting the knitted fabric to separate each of the pairs of inlays and antennas into individual RFID tags. The RFID inlay comprises an RFID integrated circuit (IC) and a loop antenna on a substrate; the RFID inlay is positioned on the fabric-based antenna such that the loop antenna is inductively coupled to a dipole antenna.

Fabric-based RFID tags and methods of manufacture

Disclosed are combination radio frequency identification (RFID) and electronic article surveillance (EAS) tags and methods of producing such tags. The claimed method is characterized by feeding a first plurality of first type inlays and a second plurality of second type inlays into a laminating machine, wherein each of the first and second type inlays are formed on first and second substrates, respectively; laminating the first type inlays to the second type inlays, thereby forming a plurality of pairs of the first and second type inlays, each of the pairs comprising an RFID inlay and an EAS inlay, wherein the RFID inlay and the EAS inlay of each pair are functionally independent.

Combination RFID/EAS tags and methods of manufacture

The disclosure provides RFID labels including a composite label affixed to a surface of a container holding an object, including a first configuration wherein the first label section is positioned in the composite label and wherein the first label section can be removed from the composite label and configured to be affixed to the object.

Multi-purpose RFID label

Disclosed are combination radio frequency identification (RFID) and electronic article surveillance (EAS) tags and methods of producing such tags using a converting machine. The method is characterized by feeding a first roll carrying first type inlays and a second roll carrying second type inlays into a converting machine; and, transferring, using the converting machine, the first type inlays to a surface of the second type inlays, thereby forming a two-layer tape carrying pairs of first and second type inlays, each of the pairs comprising an RFID inlay and an EAS inlay, wherein there is no overlap of an RFID antenna element of each RFID inlay and an EAS antenna element of a paired EAS inlay, and wherein the RFID inlay and the EAS inlay of each pair are functionally independent.

A label, comprising first base segment () having an adhesive for affixing it to a surface of an object and a second base segment () having an adhesive for affixing it to the surface. There is a label segment (), spaced in an orthogonal direction from the base segment, comprising a radio frequency identification (RFID) device and/or indicia. There is a first leg segment () In interconnecting the first base segment () to a first portion of the label segment () and second leg segment () interconnecting the second base segment () to a second portion of the label segment (). The first leg segment () interconnects with the first base segment () at an angle, which is not ninety degrees relative to the first base segment () and wherein the second leg segment () interconnects with the second base segment () at an angle, which is not ninety degrees relative to the second base segment ().
