Abstract

This article presents a novel polarization-insensitive chipless radio frequency identification tag having an encoding capacity of 11 bits. The proposed resonator design comprises discontinuous arc slots forming truncated elliptically shape offering 1:1 slot to bit correspondence with suppressed unwanted harmonic resonances. Electromagnetic performance analysis of the proposed tag design is done over an ungrounded Rogers RT duroid® 5880 laminate. The overall tag design covers a footprint of 15 × 15 × 0.508 mm3 offering convincingly appreciable bit density of 4.88 bits/cm2 . The realized tags are analyzed for real-world electromagnetic performance resulting in an agreement between measured and computed results. The proposed work finds its applications in the food and beverage industry.
