Abstract
Compensating electrical circuits are incorporated into loop antenna configurations for improved energy efficiency and extension of the magnetic fields for improved magnetic field coupling and reading of the tag by a reader. The tuning and compensating circuits provide a reader magnetic response having maxima at the center carrier frequency and at the low sideband frequency for improved reception of return signals from the tag to the reader.
