Abstract
A biocompatible UHF RFID antenna operating at 918 MHz under skin was designed and simulated using CST. The antenna was fabricated with aluminum foil (σ = 3.5 × 107 S/m) and ELCOAT conductive ink (σ ≈ 1.5 × 105 S/m). Measured return loss is better than -5dB and read range surpasses 1 m for both antennas.
