This invention discloses a
chipless RFID metal crack sensing tag with integrated
frequency band coding and its identification method. The tag patch unit is disposed on the upper surface of a
dielectric substrate, and a
metal base plate is disposed on the lower surface of the
dielectric substrate. The tag patch unit includes a disc-shaped antenna and six arc-shaped patches. The disc-shaped antenna is located at the center of the
dielectric substrate. The six arc-shaped patches are concentrically distributed in an arc shape with the center of the disc-shaped antenna as the common center, and are divided into two groups: the first group consists of four arc-shaped patches, evenly distributed circumferentially at the top, bottom, left, and right positions of the common center,
equidistant from the center; the second group consists of two arc-shaped patches, distributed circumferentially at the top and bottom positions of the common center,
equidistant from the center, and closer to the center than the arc-shaped patches in the first group, and do not contact the arc-shaped patches in the first group. This invention is low-cost, allows for
wireless measurement, and can be deployed on a large scale.
