Abstract
Tuning an antenna circuit of an actively transmitting tag to a frequency of an interrogator carrier signal after the tag was inserted into a host device is accomplished by detecting presence of the interrogator carrier signal at a location of the actively transmitting tag and hereafter setting capacitances of capacitors and/or inductances of coils comprised in said antenna circuit in a way that resonance of said antenna circuit is established while the antenna circuit is excited by a magnetic field of said interrogator carrier signal. This allows automatic tuning of an antenna circuit of an actively transmitting tag after it was inserted together with a miniature card into a host device, such as a mobile telephone, personal digital assistant, tablet PC and similar devices.
