Abstract
A first object of the present invention resides in providing a novel installation structure for an RFID tag, which effectively protects the RFID tag from external stress or impact during the storage, transportation and usage, and allows communication with the external. A second object of the present invention resides in that providing a novel installation structure for an RFID tag, which enables communication with the external even if the RFID tag is installed on a conductive member such as a metal member, and the surface thereof is covered with a protective member typically made of a metal which has an excellent strength and durability. A third object of the present invention is to provide a communication method using an RFID tag as being surrounded by a conductive member typically made of a metal. Even if an RFID tagis housed in a container A typically made of a conductive material such as a metal having a large mechanical strength, the RFID tagcan communicate with an external read/write terminalas mediated by leakage magnetic flux if only a flux leakage pathcomposed for example of a gap is formed in such container A.
