Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of RFID, in particular to a small UHF RFID tag antenna applied to metal objects. Background Art

[0002] RFID tag antennas usually require ultra-miniaturized designs. In the existing RFID field, curved wire antennas are usually used, and such antennas are usually affected by the surface of the object on which they are placed. Microstrip antennas do have advantages over traditional wire antennas when the surface to which the RFID tag is attached needs to be considered due to the fixed ground plane of the microstrip antenna. However, the microstrip patch antenna attached to such RFID tags is relatively large in size. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a small UHF RFID tag antenna for use on metal objects in view of the defects and shortcomings of the prior art, which can solve the above-mentioned defects.

[0004] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions: it includes an antenna body; the antenna body is an annular structure; one end of the annular structure is an inwardly concave notch structure; the other end of the annular structure is integrally formed with a metal sheet.

[0005] Preferably, the metal sheet occupies 3 / 5-4 / 5 of the total area of ​​the annular structure.

[0006] Preferably, the annular structure is an arrow-shaped structure.

[0007] Preferably, the arrow-shaped structure is a pen tip structure.

[0008] Preferably, the inner notch structure is located at the arrow tip position of the arrow-shaped structure, and the metal sheet extends from the arrow tail position of the arrow-shaped structure to the arrow tip position to a position close to the arrow tip position.

[0009] Preferably, the width of the inner notch structure matches the thickness of the chip.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows: the utility model provides a small UHF RFID tag antenna for use on metal objects, which has a simple structure, uses a PET substrate, has low cost, is omnidirectional, has a moderate size, is suitable for most tag application scenarios, and can be used on curved metal surfaces.
