Abstract:
1. A near field RFID antenna assembly having a substantially linear element microstrip antenna, the near field RFID antenna assembly comprising: a substrate having a first surface, a second surface and a thickness defined between the first surface and the second surface; a feed point at a first end region of the substantially linear element microstrip antenna; a terminating resistor at a second end region of the substantially linear element microstrip antenna, the second end region being opposite the feed point; a linear microstrip line disposed upon the first surface of the substrate, the linear microstrip line electrically connecting the feed point and the terminating resistor; a ground plane disposed upon the second surface of the substrate and partially disposed upon the first surface of the substrate, the ground plane not being in contact with the linear microstrip line; the microstrip antenna configured such that:
