Abstract
A wearable radio frequency identification (RFID) includes a band that forms a loop and a flag that projects outwardly from the loop which includes an RFID transponder. By virtue of being part of the flag, the RFID transponder is spatially separated from a radially-outward facing surface of the loop and thereby also apart from a user wearing the device. This provides improved read ranges of the RFID transponder when used with an energy absorbing or conductive object.
