Abstract

© 2020 EurAAP. This paper presents the design for a low cost miniaturized chipless RFID tag for short-range biomass tracking and monitoring purposes. The concentric hexagonal geometry and angular stability, leading to higher data capacity are the novel aspects of the proposed design, which can encode four data bits within a compact size of 1 cm radius. The designed is capable of encoding 2n unique IDs in a 4-to-9 GHz frequency band, where n is the number of etched slots. The angular stability makes this tag readable from any angle in biomass. Moreover, this chipless RFID tag has no hazard as compared to battery-based active tags during biomass combustion processes.
