Abstract

This article presents a circularly polarized (CP) flat antenna with truncated corners using the capacitively coupled feed technique for UHF RFID applications. A radiating plate, an air gap and a ground plane constitute the antenna. The reverse-arc shape truncated corners are utilized to generate a CP radiation and the suspended structure antenna using the capacitively coupled feed technique is adopted to enhance S11$ \left|S_{11}\right| $ bandwidth. A prototype antenna was fabricated and its measured results were 13% for the S11$ \left|S_{11}\right| $ bandwidth and 11.54% for the 3-dB axial ratio (AR) bandwidth. The half-power beamwidths of the left hand circular polarization on x–y and x–z planes were both greater than 80∘$ 80^{\circ } $. The measured gain on the UHF RFID system was greater than 5.90 dBic.
