Abstract
An antenna for a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) transponder, including: an inductive loop with terminals for connection with an RFID chip; and an electromagnetically resonant structure positioned in a same plane as the inductive loop; wherein a resonant frequency of the resonant structure corresponds to a designed operating frequency in a frequency band of the RFID transponder; and wherein the electromagnetically resonant structure is electrically and physically separated from the inductive loop and capacitively coupled to the inductive loop; and the electromagnetically resonant structure includes one or more electrical discontinuities within the electromagnetically resonant structure; wherein the antenna is adapted and configured to have a non-omni directional radiation pattern and with an input impedance substantially conjugate matches an input impedance of the RFID chip at the designed operating frequency.
