Abstract

Antenna measurements Dipole antennas Yarn Antenna accessories Antenna radiation patterns Radiofrequency identification
In this study, we built a lumped component model for knit tag antennas. Comfortable, seamless, and wireless antennas were manufactured using conductive yarns and RFID technology. Knitting fabrication enabled rapid prototyping of these wearable antennas. Using the lumped component model, we optimized the geometry and knit structure of the antenna, resulting in improved radiation efficiency, reading range, and sensitivity.
