Development and Implementation of Novel UHF Paper-Based RFID Designs for Anti-counterfeiting and Security Applications

In this paper, we proposed the development and implementation of novel paper-based UHF RFID designs for anti-counterfeiting and security. Miniaturization and global-band antenna configurations and utilization of inkjet printing techniques in/on organic substrates, such as paper, that will enable the low cost and large-scale implementation of RFID-enabled semi-autonomous sensors for "cognitive-intelligence" applications, are also discussed for a variety of security-related areas, featuring a great potential for low-cost large-scale solutions.
